Nex System Features
Property Partner Revenue Share In a typical installation, Nex will design, build, own and operate the Internet access network at its own cost, and will provide the property owner a share of revenues generated from customer use of the Internet access network.
Automated User Authentication and Control Each user access (e.g. a hotel guest) will be subject to full user ID and password protection, and fully encrypted security, based upon a prepaid card system. The prepaid cards are issued by the hotel property upon the receipt of a direct payment or processing of the appropriate room charge. User authentication and Internet access is handled by Nex’s specialized computer servers and software, based upon the prepaid card, which will permit unlimited access for 24 continuous hours after activation or for such other period as the guest may have purchased. Each prepaid card has printed upon it a unique user ID and password, with the password protected by a removable security covering which is to be rubbed off by the user. The authentication server will require a valid ID and password to be entered before permitting Internet access and will initiate and track the “usage clock”.
Flexible Systems Design, Expansion and Information Security Owing to the underlying technology and overall system architecture, Nex’s Internet access networks are highly scalable and can easily grow to service new business demands. User and network security are provided by dedicated firewall hardware and software and, where appropriate, rely upon industry standard 128-bit encryption technology.
Speedy Access and Reliability Speedy access is achieved through employing state-of-the-art Internet access hardware and software, current design and development tools, and providing the telecommunications bandwidth capacity to handle planned user loads. Reliability is achieved primarily through the use of state-of-the-art servers and related telecommunications equipment owned by the Company, which are interconnected through high-speed telecommunications lines.
User Privacy The privacy of users’ personal information will be respected and nothing related to a specific user will be made available to any third parties, unless that user personally authorizes it.
Secure, Customized System Functions Each of Nex’s specialized Internet access network installations feature high-speed, broadband Internet access utilizing a customized architecture that is managed through the Company’s network operations centre (“NOC”) and corporate office. In the instance of a hotel-based user, their initial network log-on would be authenticated at the NOC and then directed through to the Internet “home page” of the specific hotel property. Critical NOC equipment is physically situated in secure, environmentally controlled, dedicated premises. Nex’s specialized Internet access networks are connected to the Internet, the NOC and corporate offices, through high-speed telecommunications lines.
High Quality User Experience and Support In addition to superior network design, function and ongoing development, Nex’s operations emphasize a high quality user experience and ongoing support, and employ a prioritised response system.
