The Hippodrome Casino Cashes Out with Extreme Wireless Extreme Networks
Published: May 14, 2024 Download PDF
The Hippodrome Casino in London’s Leicester Square has been an entertainment icon since 1900. The six-story building houses three casinos, eight bars, a theater, restaurants, and a three-story roof terrace. With more than 80,000 square feet full of fun and entertainment, The Hippodrome is a high-traffic, bandwidth-hungry site where network resilience is key to ensuring quality guest experiences for thousands.
In recent years, the casino has embarked on several renovation projects to accommodate its growing business – including a massive expansion of its gaming floors and dining spaces in 2020 and a CCTV refresh in 2021. To support these initiatives and ensure wireless support for the new space, The Hippodrome needed a network upgrade to not only boost Wi-Fi connectivity throughout the site but also ensure continued services 24 hours a day, 364 days a year.
