With the launch of Ultra Capacity 5G at Q2 Stadium, T-Mobile
customers can tap into download speeds up to 16 times faster during
a crowded game, so they can do more of what they love, like video
calls and post to social media. There are also tablets on-site,
connected to T-Mobile’s network which grant access to ordering food
and beverages. And for fans who aren’t T-Mobile customers, they can
still experience the Un-carrier’s blazing speeds through Network
Pass.
“Soccer fans have high expectations when it comes to getting the
best experience at a match,” said Neville Ray, President of
Technology at T-Mobile. “By bringing our Ultra Capacity 5G network
to Q2 Stadium, we’re able to deliver outstanding connectivity and
experiences, throughout the stadium and just in time for
playoffs.”
“Q2 stadium is a world-class facility that prioritizes
technology, hospitality, and above all, the guest experience,” said
Andy Loughnane, Austin FC President. “We’re thrilled we can provide
fans a best-in-class 5G experience during all Austin FC and Q2
Stadium events.”
T-Mobile worked with Austin FC’s connectivity partner, Boingo
Wireless, which manages the converged, neutral host cellular
distributed antenna system (DAS) and Wi-Fi 6 networks throughout
the stadium. This includes bowl seating, suites, club sections,
concourses and the field, to power a highly-connected, fan-focused
experience.
More than 46 sports and entertainment venues across the country
are covered with UC 5G. And with the Un-carrier having the fastest
network in 75 of the 100 most populous cities in the U.S. –
including Austin – it won’t be the last.
T-Mobile is the leader in 5G with the country’s largest, fastest
and most reliable 5G network. The Un-carrier’s Extended Range 5G
covers nearly everyone in the country – 320 million people across
1.8 million square miles. 235 million people nationwide are covered
with super-fast Ultra Capacity 5G, and T-Mobile expects to cover
260 million in 2022 and 300 million next year.
