PSAV is the company. I just installed about 20 Cisco WiFi radios at the
Doubletree (a Hilton prop) at Sea-Tac. These covered only the convention
space, conf rooms, ball rooms, whatnot. It would seem that the hotel is
running their own system in the other public areas such as check-in, coffee
shops and bars.
Mostly they were well placed, often in the same spot as the existing
radios. But I'd never throw a geek-con at that system.
