“CommScope’s fiber optic cabling delivers the high-bandwidth connectivity needed for a truly compelling and interactive Las Vegas Raiders fan experience,” said Matthew Pasco, Raiders Vice President of Technology. “This includes 4K-ready video replays, as well as live streams captured by multiple cameras. With CommScope fiber, Allegiant Stadium is well positioned for the future and ready to accommodate an ever-increasing number of standard client devices such as smartphones and tablets, along with evolving technology like augmented reality (AR) glasses and virtual reality (VR) helmets.”

CommScope’s 227 miles of fiber deployment brings connectivity to all 10 levels of Allegiant Stadium, from the event level to the semi-translucent ETFE roof. This will enable fans to use their Raiders mobile app throughout the facility to find parking spaces, locate concession stands, order food directly to their seats and share their experience on social sites via livestreamed videos. CommScope’s 10G CAT 6A copper cabling will connect in-house applications while its coaxial cables will connect the new DAS system in the stadium. CommScope is one of the only companies that can provide a comprehensive portfolio of Wi-Fi, fiber and copper infrastructure.

"We're proud to support the Las Vegas Raiders fan experience in the new Allegiant Stadium,” said Ben Cardwell, senior vice president of CommScope’s Venue and Campus Networks. “Our fiber is helping to deliver high-bandwidth connectivity to hundreds of thousands of smartphones and tablets, while supporting 4K video streaming and replays captured by multiple cameras with comprehensive viewing angles. These virtual video experiences enable Raiders fans to feel like they are in the middle of the action – no matter where they are in the stadium – with panoramic and front-row views.”
