Aruba<\/a> announced that Nobu Hospitality is standardizing on Aruba<\/a> as its preferred network infrastructure vendor for three of its new hotels in Chicago<\/a>, Warsaw<\/a>, and London Portman Square<\/a>. Using the foundation of Aruba ESP<\/a>, a combination of Aruba<\/a> wired, wireless and security solutions, Nobu Hotels is enabling highly secure and reliable Wi-Fi<\/a>, as well as a range of IoT <\/a>applications, that help provide a superior experience for its guests, replete with all of the comforts and technologies they have at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the help of key integration partners, Nobu is deploying a range of Aruba<\/a> solutions at its various properties. Among these are Aruba edge and core switches<\/a>, ClearPass Policy Manager<\/a>, and Aruba location-ready APs<\/a>, the latter of which are designed specifically for hospitality and IoT<\/a> use cases.
