The device isolation problem, solved
In multi-tenant environments (like student housing, hotels, or care homes), Purple creates a personal Private Area Network (PAN) for each user. They log in once, and all their devices are placed inside a secure, private bubble that follows them around the venue.
- Private Area Network (PAN) per user for device isolation
- Simple passcode for browserless devices via iPSK
- Works like home WiFi, with enterprise security
- Ideal for student accommodation, BTR, and hotels
True privacy in shared environments 🔒
Every user is placed into their own micro-segment (VLAN/Group), so they can only communicate with their own devices. This is essential for residential environments, ensuring the student in Room 101 cannot see the devices of the student in Room 102. For devices that can't use the app (like smart TVs or game consoles), the system provides a unique iPSK (Identity Pre-Shared Key) to connect them securely without compromising the 802.1x network architecture.
- Micro-segmentation for user isolation
- iPSK for connecting smart TVs and consoles
- mDNS reflection for device discovery within the bubble
- Full audit trail

Seamless setup for all devices 🧘
Onboarding is simple: Users authenticate once with ConneX via SSO/credentials. Browserless devices (consoles, smart TVs) connect using a unique iPSK passcode from the app. All devices reconnect automatically and seamlessly across all affiliated locations.
- Single sign-on or membership credential login
- Simple passcode for browserless devices
- Automatic connection for all devices upon return
- Works on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android

Understand your asset utilization
WiFi data gives you insights into building utilization. See which residential wings are most active or which areas of the common space are being used and when. This data can be exported and plugged into existing dashboards to help your facilities and operations teams optimize space and maintenance.
- Occupancy by day and hour
- Building utilization reports
- Exportable data for facilities management
- Average reduction in real estate costs

Student Housing
Students can securely connect their laptops, phones, gaming consoles, and smart home devices. They can take their laptop to the library and still access their printer in their dorm room.
- Private Area Network per student
- Support for all personal devices
- Seamless campus-wide roaming

Hotels & Hospitality
Guests check in, use the app to provision their network pass, and all their devices are automatically connected and isolated from other guests. They connect automatically on every future visit to any property in the chain.
- Instant reconnection at any chain property
- Secure isolation from other guests
- Support for staff and guest WiFi on one platform

Care Homes & Residential
Provides a simple, reliable, and secure "at-home" experience for residents and patients, allowing them to connect personal devices without complex IT support. The unique iPSK simplifies onboarding of non-browser devices.
- Simple onboarding for residents
- iPSK for easy legacy device connection
- Reduced IT support tickets for connectivity

Resident and Guest Engagement
The ConneX app doubles as an engagement channel. It turns the required network authentication step into a two-way communication platform for residents and guests. You can use the app to:
- Capture feedback using surveys (like eNPS satisfaction ratings for guests or residents)
- Serve location-aware content, promotions, or key information during receptive moments
- Deliver notifications and rewards based on the end user's preference
