ISTANBUL, TURKEY--(Marketwired - August 16, 2016) - Narven Thermal Spa, Turkey's first thermal health village project, announced today its communications and networking infrastructure is powered by Avaya. Narven Thermal Spa is deploying Avaya's unified communications, contact center and networking solutions across the entire project, helping to boost productivity, reduce network costs and transform the customer experience.
Narven Thermal Spa, scheduled for completion in 2017, will comprise 1,250 apartments, 150 villas, 500 hotel rooms and shared public areas, including cinemas, theaters, and restaurants.

With Avaya's wireless solutions, guests and employees enjoy secure, fast and seamless wireless roaming across all areas, including the shared public spaces.

Network administrators will be able to differentiate enterprise users from guests, with full network control and visibility.
The virtualization incorporated in Avaya fabric networking technology allows management to more easily roll out new applications and services, with less switches and cabling required at the network edge. The IT team can change settings or resolve issues remotely using only a laptop.
