A managed network for your booth, stage, or show floor.
We handle the venue order, the equipment, and the people. You get a network that’s running before your staff arrive and someone in the hall if it isn’t.
What the service includes
Every engagement gets the full list. The quote changes with the size of the setup and the hours of coverage, never with which items you get.
- Planning
- A project manager is assigned when you first contact us. They work out what you're running, how many devices, where they sit in the booth, and what the venue will and won't allow. They stay your contact through teardown.
- Venue circuit ordering
- We order the circuit from the venue's provider in your name, sized to your setup, ahead of the advance-rate deadline. If the venue's rules mean a wired setup instead of wireless, you hear that before the order goes in.
- Network build
- Managed switch, battery backup, cabling cut and labeled for your booth, and spares for every part that can fail. Configured in the shop, not on the floor.
- Device separation
- Where the circuit allows it, payment terminals, demos, staff laptops, and connected products are kept on separate segments so a problem in one doesn't spread.
- Wireless where permitted
- Some venues allow booth access points on certain circuits; others require the venue's own wireless. We tell you which applies and set it up either way.
- On-site engineering
- An engineer during move-in, a walkthrough with your staff before doors open, and on-site coverage for the hours you choose. Problems get fixed at the booth.
- Teardown
- Gear packed out on the venue's schedule, with nothing left behind for your booth crew to deal with.
Who it’s for
Exhibitors
A 10x10 with a card reader and a laptop, or an island booth with a demo wall and forty devices. The process is the same; the size of the build changes.
Event organizers and producers
Registration areas, stages, press rooms, and sponsor zones that need a network across the floor and one vendor accountable for it.
Agencies and booth builders
If you're building the booth for a client, we plug into your schedule and handle the network line item so you don't have to.
How the venue side works
Every convention center has one provider allowed to deliver internet to the floor, and that provider sells two kinds of connection. A shared connection is the basic drop: cheaper, adequate for email and web browsing, and usually off limits to your own routers or wireless. A dedicated connection costs more, carries guaranteed bandwidth, and allows equipment behind it.
Ordering the wrong one is the most common booth-network mistake we see. Exhibitors order the basic drop, plug in a consumer router, and discover on day one that it’s not allowed. Your project manager reads the venue’s current terms and picks the product that fits what you’re running. We don’t publish venue rates; they change by venue and by year, and your quote uses the current ones.
How a quote is built
Your estimate lists the venue circuit at the venue’s current rate, the equipment we’ll deploy for your footprint and device count, item by item, and on-site engineering for the hours you want covered. There are no packages or tiers. Two booths with the same setup and the same hours get the same number, and you can see exactly what’s in it before you approve.
To quote accurately we need the venue, the show dates, the booth size, a rough count of what’s plugging in, and the hours you want an engineer present. A project manager confirms the details with you before anything is ordered.
