Telefónica has deployed Nokia’s Centralized RAN and small cells technologies at Valencia’s Mestalla Stadium to better handle the flood of mobile traffic from over 50,000 football fans.
Nokia’s Centralized RAN technology is built on the company’s Flexi Multiradio 10 Base Station and runs on operators’ existing LTE networks with no additional network elements needed.
“Telefónica remains committed to building a cutting-edge network infrastructure in Spain, using innovative solutions that offer outstanding service quality in spite of exceptional circumstances. With Nokia, we will improve mobile broadband performance at Mestalla Stadium so our customers can share content easier,” stated Joaquín Mata, Network Technology and Operations Director at Telefónica Spain.
