Fontainebleau Las Vegas Builds Memorable Guest Experiences with Extreme and C1

Fontainebleau Las Vegas is a luxury destination like no other. The site boasts 67 stories, 3,600 rooms and suites, and a 150,000 square foot casino. Guests of Fontainebleau Las Vegas will find dining, entertainment, wellness, and nightlife, all within one coveted location on the north end of the Strip.  

With packed events like concerts and sporting events always dotting its social calendar, Fontainebleau Las Vegas knew it needed the right technology partners to connect every dot—and every memorable experience. To deliver a complete experience for guests, Fontainebleau Las Vegas needed best-in-class networking solutions. A strong partnership would lay the groundwork for Fontainebleau Las Vegas to support AV operations across the Casino floor, supply uninterrupted connectivity to guests, and serve the staff’s extensive business needs. 

That’s where C1 and Extreme teamed up to build an incredible working relationship with Fontainebleau Las Vegas, partnering to supply all the many moving parts and use cases that would be necessary to show how Extreme’s Fabric and ExtremeCloud IQ - Site Engine solutions would serve as a changemaker for this pillar of the Las Vegas luxury corridor.  

“You really have a great opportunity when you’re building a new property to find the best of the best technology solutions,” said Bill Driver, Vice President of Technology, Fontainebleau Las Vegas. “So we went with Extreme.”  

Working with C1 and Extreme Networks was a winning combination for Fontainebleau Las Vegas, providing strategic layers of focused, hands-on attention and delivering the certainty of a great result. The combination of expertise and technology gave Fontainebleau Las Vegas the confidence needed that they’d found the ideal mix of technologies for an extremely vast and complex networking environment. And not surprisingly, that lineup included Extreme Fabric. 

“We take tremendous pride in our Fabric solution,” said Cameron Marchand, Senior Director of Strategic Partnerships, Extreme Networks. “Because we do feel it delivers that secure, automated, simple solution that can bring a single network to a place of this magnitude.” Now more than a year after the Fontainebleau Las Vegas’s much-anticipated opening, C1 and Fontainebleau Las Vegas leadership say that working with Extreme is still a decision they’re happy to have made. 

“Extreme is just a great partner, not just a vendor,” said Driver of this successful project. “They’re there for us night and day.”
