Info Point is a robust plug and play local WiFi and server that allows you to share content over your own private internet.
£3,000
A local WiFi hotspot with just your content. Anywhere.
Info Point is so simple to set up and maintain. Content editing is fast with drag and drop functionality. Give your Info Point a home, switch it on and then leave it to share your content, allowing you to focus on other duties. Learn more about the software and hardware below.
Software
Every Info Point comes pre-installed with a custom-built PlaceMaker Content Management System (CMS), which allows you to start uploading content and building pages straight out of the box. We provide login details and remote CMS training (that we record and share with you for future reference) so you know what to do. And if you ever have a question, just get in touch.
Other CMS options, such as WordPress, can be installed too. In fact, you can install almost anything on an Info Point meaning you are only limited by your imagination. See how some of our Creative Partners have used Info Point.
Hardware
An industrial-grade web server and WiFi router you can place almost anywhere, both indoors and outdoors. With some basic weather protection the insect and dust-protected enclosure is even suitable for harsh, coastal environments. The Server’s robust construction ensures many years of continuous operation, and the auto-recovery feature reboots the server following power interruptions.
Every Info Point allows up to 40 users to connect at any one time within a range of up to 250 metres. An Info Point uses the no more energy than a low energy 20W light bulb and can be powered by mains (AC adaptor supplied), battery, or solar. Some key features are:
- Extremely reliable for continuous, unattended use
- Commercial-grade components
- Intelligent, auto-recover facility
- 150 metre range (250 metre with optional high gain antenna)
- Add Info Point Extenders to boost range and simultaneous users even further
- Suitable for internal and external uses
- 5 year warranty (NLHF suitable)
You can add up to three Info Point Extenders to boost the range of your Info Point.
Additional Info Points, to create independent ‘Hotspots’ across your site(s), are discounted by 20% if ordered at the same time. These can contain the same, or different, content.
