In case you weren’t aware, BSN provides access to ultra-reliable temporary high-speed event Internet at numerous lit stadiums, arenas, datacenters, conference centers and other large-capacity venues across the globe.
Through BSN’s extensive nationwide fiber backbone, and carrier partnerships, live events are ensured temporary high-speed event Internet access that is installed quickly and with no term commitment, regardless of the need, whether for one day, one week or one month. BSN can even provide the same service for venues that are not lit (or on-net), most anywhere in the world.
Among the lit venues in the U.S. alone are:
- Nearly all NFL stadiums
- 29 MLB stadiums (including Fenway Park, Dodger Stadium and Progressive Field)
- 17 NHL arenas (including TD Garden, Xcel Energy Center and Wells Fargo Center)
- 30 NBA arenas (including Amway Arena, Oracle Arena and Quicken Loans Arena)
- 4 WNBA venues (including Mandalay Events Center, Target Center and Key Arena)
- 20 MLS stadiums (including Gillette Stadium, TCF Bank Stadium and Providence Park)
- 14 college football stadiums and basketball arenas (including Sun Life Stadium, Lincoln Financial Field and KFC Yum Center)
- Dozens of Datacenters and Convention Centers
- Integration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure networks
- Integration with national media hubs for native video transport
- And many more (click here for a more complete list of stadiums and other venues)
BE WARY OF TERM CONTRACTS
One of the biggest unforeseen obstacles that live events run into is that most carriers will not agree to day-to-day, much less month-to-month, temporary high-speed event Internet service. They typically require term contracts that range from one year to as long as three years for broadband to enterprise ethernet services.
For example, rather than facing a two-year $31,200 commitment for a 100 Mb fiber circuit at $1,300 per month, BSN can provide temporary WiFi for event access at a fraction of that cost for much shorter time periods.
WHY BSN FOR TEMPORARY HIGH-SPEED EVENT INTERNET?
The primary benefits of BSN handling your temporary event Internet service include:
- Our 25 years of telecommunications experience (since 1994)
- We founded one of the very first and largest ISPs in the Chicago market (one of the top five markets in the U.S.)
- We have the right wholesale and Carrier relationships with over 150 carriers worldwide, which are the major reasons we can get Internet backhaul circuits deployed at such a reasonable rate
In contrast to that level of experience, a typical event service provider will most likely go through a retail channel instead of BSN’s more advantageous wholesale and/or service provider approach that’s linked to relationships with every major carrier in the U.S.
It’s also important to remember that even though many venues provide a general WiFi package, they’re typically very expensive and don’t provide a lot of capacity or throughput. If your venue offers such a service, BSN can typically provide a more affordable, higher-value and purpose-built temporary WiFi systems as well as a variety of other data networking services that can be bundled at a lower cost.
