Cellnex has deployed more than 1,500 DAS nodes (Distributed Antennas System), used by an average of three MNOs, across the six European countries in which they operate. One of the primary use cases of DAS is the provision of carefully planned, high capacity, multi-operator, multi-band networks in landmark buildings such as airports, shopping malls and stadia. At the 2018 Mobile World Congress, TowerXchange were treated to a case study demonstrating how Cellnex connects 68,000 fans at Atletico Madrid’s Wanda Metropolitano stadium, and how they future-proofed the deployment for 5G.
TowerXchange: Thanks for taking some time out of your busy Mobile World Congress schedule to meet with us Albert! Please would you start by introducing Cellnex’s business in Spain.
