Case Study: Egyptian Museum of Turin achieves seamless wireless visitor services with Zyxel

World’s Second Largest Egyptian Museum Receives ZyXEL Wireless Solution

The Egyptian Museum of Turin, one of the world’s largest Egyptian museums, needed to deliver reliable wireless connectivity throughout its nearly 300-year-old historic building while preserving the museum’s aesthetics. Zyxel was brought in to support visitor-facing multimedia apps, Google Glass support for hearing-impaired guests, internal VoIP, and cabinet alarms, all over a secure, hidden wireless infrastructure.

Zyxel implemented a WLAN solution built around a NXC5500 Wireless LAN Controller, WAC6502D-E and NWA5123-NI access points, GS2210 PoE switches, and a USG1900 security gateway. The deployment provided full coverage, centralized management, and a future-proof foundation for upcoming upgrades, while replacing outdated audio-guide technology and improving the visitor experience for more than 550,000 annual guests, including new accessibility support for hearing-impaired visitors.
