CommScope to Enable 5G and CBRS at AT&T
Center
CommScope (NASDAQ: COMM) announced today it has been selected by
Spurs Sports & Entertainment (SS&E) as the provider for its
next generation mobile connectivity transformation at AT&T
Center, home of the San Antonio Spurs. CommScope’s in-building
wireless solutions will deliver dedicated 4G, 5G, and private
wireless network access. These solutions will allow fans and
concert goers to enjoy an immersive experience while providing
operational efficiency for the venue and vendors.
With CommScope’s ERA® All-Digital DAS, the AT&T Center will
increase its mobile broadband wireless capacity to provide an
augmented fan experience utilizing ultra-wideband 5G. This enables
fans to enjoy frictionless event-day conveniences such as immersive
content, paperless entry, cashless payments, and in-seat ordering
with their smartphones. They will also experience low latency
interaction when they engage with experiences through the recently
launched official Spurs Mobile App.
“All these capabilities require venues to provide fast and
reliable wireless networks. CommScope is honored to provide our
premier ERA DAS platform and CBRS solutions for the Spurs to enable
these innovative offerings for their fans at AT&T Center,”
stated Darla Braun, SVP Sales and Business Development,
CommScope.
In addition to being selected as the in-building cellular
platform for fan facing mobile broadband, SS&E selected
CommScope CBRS to provide the AT&T Center with its first
private wireless network, dedicated to operations and enhanced
security around the arena. This purpose-built private network can
easily address a wide range of business-critical operational needs
and allows for the addition of digital elements such as smart
parking, analytics, security, and crowd management without
stressing existing networks.
“We are thrilled to have CommScope equip AT&T Center with a
high speed and reliable network solution that allows us to realize
cost savings while providing an enhanced fan experience,” said Joe
Loomis, VP of Finance and Technology, Spurs Sports &
Entertainment.
CommScope’s ERA increases efficiency by reducing head-end space
by as much as 80% over a traditional analog system, all while
minimizing network complexity and costs. Not only will AT&T
Center be equipped to maximize the “fan experience,” but it will
also capitalize environmentally on power, space and cooling
savings. ERA DAS provides the arena with the network architecture
necessary to deliver a high-speed and seamless experience from
beginning to end, while also being flexible enough to adapt to
future needs. CommScope’s CBRS portfolio enables organizations to
leverage a high capacity and highly secure mission-critical network
that is easily deployed and cloud managed.
