AT&T Upgrades Wi-FI and 4G LTE DAS in Bank of America Stadium

If you made your way to Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina to watch the ACC Championship Game recently or if you frequently attend Carolina Panther games then you may have noticed the upgrades to the network that AT&T installed. The 74,000+ seat venue is equipped with more than 645 Wi-Fi access points to provide more seamless Wi-Fi coverage throughout the venue. “Panthers fans are increasingly sharing game time experiences from their wireless devices,” said Panthers President Danny Morrison. “They’re uploading photos, posting videos, and surfing the web for in-game, real time updates. Wireless technology has enhanced how Panthers fans enjoy game day, and this Wi-Fi upgrade makes the digital interaction even more seamless.” Panthers fans are taking advantage of the upgraded Wi-Fi system’s increased capacity. So far during the 2013 season, fans at Bank of America Stadium exchanged 1.9 million MB of data on the Wi-Fi system, 50 percent more than during the same timeframe last year. This is equivalent to approximately 3,900 hours of streaming HD video.
