Cellular Specialties, Inc. (CSI), a recognized leader in the design and implementation of wireless networks and a proven wireless infrastructure partner of the New England Patriots and Gillette Stadium, today announced it has installed a 4G LTE network for one of the nation's largest carriers at Gillette Stadium. The expanded network provides fans with faster wireless speeds for surfing the web, uploading photos and making calls on their Smartphones and tablets.
The 4G installation is the latest example of wireless technology enhancements Cellular Specialties has provided at Gillette Stadium. Earlier this year, Cellular Specialties, in partnership with Enterasys Networks, designed and deployed the stadium's Wi-Fi network, and in 2010 installed a 3G network.
"The fan-experience is always changing and evolving. Our focus on quality services coupled with a successful track record of providing state-of-the-art wireless networks in a host of large, high density environments puts Cellular Specialties in a very unique position in this space," said Kelley Carr , president of Cellular Specialties' Custom Solutions Group. "We're thrilled to continue our partnership with the Patriots and Gillette Stadium on providing their fans with world-class connectivity."
In addition to its work at Gillette Stadium, Cellular Specialties has designed and installed Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) in a number of large stadiums and arenas across all of the major professional sports leagues. Cellular Specialties was hired to oversee the design and deployment of the wireless infrastructures at both the Mercedes Benz Superdome in New Orleans, La., for the 2013 "Big Game" and Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Ind., for the 2012 "Big Game".
