expoConnex can provide turnkey solutions that address broadband and other network related technology needs, and provide these services in a secure, managed environment. Just a few of the technology solutions provided include:

Secure, Managed Broadband (wired and wireless) - Assure exhibitors and attendees that their personal information and critical files are protected from hackers, viruses, spyware and worms. Technicians can temporarily expand Internet coverage at locations that may be underpowered to suit the needs of your meeting.

The more bandwidth you have, the less you have to worry about your exhibitors or attendees slowing down the network connection with high volume use. expoConnex can dedicate a defined amount of bandwidth for your expos and events to ensure that each exhibitor or attendee can have sufficient connection speed without impacting the other exhibitors or attendees or activities.

Wireless Hot Spot/Zone- Provide attendees the convenience of wireless access to the Internet for a single meeting room up to the entire conference or convention.

Wireless Kiosks - computer workstations are easy to use, secure personal computers that can be placed in any pre-function common area or business center to generate incremental revenues for the facility. Options for use include secure code-based access or credit card access. These systems are securely managed via the network, and ideal for business travelers who need quick access to a computer, because of its familiar structure, ease of use, high uptime and automated maintenance and security measures. It is currently in use in over 1,000 facilities worldwide.

Static Public IP Address:

With this service, your exhibitors and attendees will enjoy seamless compatibility with all their equipment, and still operate under our umbrella of rock-solid security.An IP address is essentially a serial number for your computer that identifies it on the network. In most situations, these addresses are dynamic, and assigned at random. If you want to connect to a video conferencing camera, a local printer, or other "non-conventional" device-without getting hung up on your firewall-your computer must utilize a static, permanent public IP address.

Private VLAN networking - This service provides a private VLAN network among devices connected to ports on the network allowing them to communicate directly with each other as well as access the Internet. Private networks are an important security feature for most companies. By setting up a private VLAN network, we build you an exclusive network with dedicated bandwidth that enables your attendees to network with each other while being safely independent of Internet users outside of the meeting. Any computer connected to the network can communicate with each other as well as access the Internet.
