INNERDIGITAL · TECHNOLOGY PROPOSAL
The Onyx
Art Hotel & Gallery
Network, cabling, phones, TVs and managed IT for a 40-room hotel, gallery and ground-floor tenants.
Updated September 20, 2026 · Budget proposal
01 / SCOPE
What’s included
40 guest rooms, 50 Yealink phones, 40 wired TVs, 57 Wi-Fi access points and 217 cable drops.
In each guest room
- One phone outlet
- One direct LAN outlet for the 65-inch Smart TV
- One guest laptop outlet
- One separate cable to a UniFi Wi-Fi access point
Four cable runs per room keep all three requested outlets available.
217 Cat6 drops · $54,250
40 rooms × 3 outlets120
Ground-floor data and phone outlets40
Separate Wi-Fi connections57
Total at $250 per drop217
Includes cable, jacks, plates, patch panels, patch cords, standard supports, installation, labeling and certification. The 10 business phones use outlets within the ground-floor allowance.
ROOM COUNT TO CONFIRM
Pricing assumes 20 rooms on each hotel floor. The revised second-floor plan supports 20 rooms; a revised third-floor plan is still needed. Confirm room numbering, outlet locations, rack spaces and the service address before installation.
Original and revised floor plans
The revised plan has 19 labels and one unlabeled room enclosure at door 230A. Confirm the current drawing issue and resolve the 319 / 325 S. Gay St. address difference.
02 / NETWORK
UniFi network and Wi-Fi
Separate networks protect hotel operations, guests, phones, TVs, the gallery and each tenant.
57 Wi-Fi access points
40 U7 In-Wall units in guest rooms and 17 U7 Pro units in shared areas. Wired connections provide the backbone for Wi-Fi.
4 racks with UPS
One main 42U rack and three 12U floor cabinets, each with UniFi battery backup. Three fiber trunks provide 10Gb connections between racks.
| Location | Wi-Fi APs | Network cabinet / switches |
|---|---|---|
| Ground floor | 8 | Main rack near rooms 110 / 112 · 2 × 48-port PoE |
| Basement | 4 | Floor cabinet near Storage 17 · 1 × 24-port PoE |
| Hotel floor 2 | 22 | Floor cabinet near rooms 207 / 209 · 2 × 48-port PoE |
| Hotel floor 3 | 22 | Floor cabinet near rooms 307 / 309 · 2 × 48-port PoE |
| Mechanical penthouse | 1 | Connected to floor 3, subject to cable-length check |
Includes configuration of 10 network segments: management, hotel, guests, voice, TVs, gallery and four tenants. Guests receive Internet-only access; business and tenant networks remain separated.
Plan for 2 Gbps primary Internet and a separate 500 Mbps backup service. Carrier charges are additional. Wi-Fi quantities and placement will be checked by an on-site survey.

Capacity, security and testing details
- Switch capacity: 312 access ports; 222 planned connections leave 90 spare. New outlets still need cabling.
- Wi-Fi planning: 1,000 connected devices / 500 active users. Survey and load testing will confirm coverage; these are design targets.
- Acceptance: target −67 dBm coverage and 25 dB signal-to-noise ratio in agreed areas; test roaming, isolation and Internet failover. Certify all copper links and test fiber loss.
- Cabling: maximum 90 m permanent copper link / 100 m total channel. Use wired AP backhaul; wireless mesh only where the survey supports it.
- Power: 4,720 W total switch PoE capacity; approximately 1,377 W planned endpoint load. Verify each rack’s load and UPS runtime. Each UPS is limited to 1,000 W and provides short outage protection.
- Limits: one gateway and one fully occupied aggregation switch; hardware redundancy and long-duration backup power are additional. Confirm carrier handoff compatibility. Outdoor and elevator coverage are excluded.
VLANs: management 10; hotel 20; guests 30; voice 40; TVs 50; gallery 60; tenants 70/80/90/100. Access between segments is blocked unless approved. Guest-device isolation and restricted IT access are included.
