Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 4737983, member: 27"] John Mezzalinga (sp?), the CEO of JMA Wireless, said that the dome will have the same solution as that installed at Sofi Stadium, which hosted the 2022 Super Bowl. I am pasting a couple of paragraphs from an article on the Sofi network, which I am assuming will also be true at the dome. Sounds like yes, you will see a noticeable improvement. But not as dramatic as people will who have phones capable of 5G. I believe the stadium Wi-Fi is also getting a major upgrade. That happened at Sofi. Tailgaters, note the second paragraph. Hoping JMA is going to throw up some MatSing antennas pointed at the Western parking lots. The tailgating community likes to watch games while tailgating and eating and this would be a wonderful thing many of us would love to see happen. [I]T-Mobile, which uses different spectrum bands than AT&T and Verizon, said it will have its 5G services available at 2.5 GHz, 24 GHz and 39 GHz. And all three carriers are fully participating on the stadium's 4G LTE DAS, which is [URL='https://stadiumtechreport.com/featured/test-lased']one of the largest ever built[/URL]. The DAS, using gear from JMA Wireless and designed by JMA with deployment partner DAS Group Professionals, has approximately 2,400 antennas and 3,200 remotes, and is unique in that is the first stadium DAS we know of that is running neutral-host 5G signals, here in the C-band spectrum. The DAS is capable of covering all licensed spectrum bands between 600 MHz to 6 GHz, according to Skarpi Hedinsson, chief technology officer, SoFi Stadium and Hollywood Park. The DAS also uses approximately 24 MatSing lens antennas, with that number about evenly split between the stadium and the parking lots, according to Steve Dutto, president of DGP. Inside the stadium, the iconic MatSing antennas (which are basically big round balls) use their long-throw capability to cover areas like the YouTube Theater plaza and some of the higher concourse gathering areas, which have high open areas above them.[/I] Surprised the PS has not had any follow up on this story a week before the home opener. I am sure they will have a story or two soon. People care about this. It would be nice if they knew in advance what changes they will see and how to best take advantage of them. Hint. Hint.
