Each week, we'll dive into the network of one NFL stadium, exploring peaks in fan engagement and what those insights mean for the NFL.

Extreme Networks and the NFL

For twelve seasons, Extreme Networks has proudly served as the Official Wi-Fi Solutions and Wi-Fi Analytics Provider of the NFL, playing a crucial role in enhancing the fan experience in stadiums across the league. On game day, our Wi-Fi solutions and analytics help stadium teams ensure seamless connectivity and uncover valuable insights into fan behavior and preferences.

Extreme's Wi-Fi has revolutionized how teams connect with fans, providing innovative ways to enhance the in-stadium experience. During the offseason, teams, including the Houston Texans, upgraded to Wi-Fi 6E access points, boosting connectivity throughout NRG Park and setting the stage for an even more immersive fan experience.

A strong wireless network empowers fans to engage with social media and other mobile experiences seamlessly, enabling them to share unforgettable moments, access real-time game data, and enjoy coverage throughout the stadium. Wi-Fi analytics provide critical insights to stadium staff, serving as the foundation for enhancing and personalizing the fan experience while optimizing venue operations, resulting in exceptional stadium visits.
