Getronics is the leading international provider of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) services and solutions.

Gus Bottazzi, CEO of BAXL Technologies said, "Getronics Portugal will open many new doors in the European Telecommunications market and provide their customers with an in-building broadband solution that their current wiring topographies would not otherwise support.

BAXL's in-building solution simply replaces the facility's existing telephone wall jacks with LapJack(TM) wall mounted station devices, then uses the property's existing wiring to provide fixed continuous high bandwidth for both wired and 802.11 a/b/g wireless fidelity (WiFi) that is fully reliable, secure, and makes connecting to the Internet simple and instantaneous. The scalability of BAXL's solution enables properties of any size to deliver broadband services cost effectively and offers them the opportunity to provide wired and wireless high speed Internet access (HSIA) as well as additional broadband applications such as Voice over IP (VoIP), Video on Demand (VoD), IP-based Video Surveillance and SmartRoom technologies such as occupancy-sensing digital thermostat, lighting control, in-suite amenities and energy management.
