The American operator Verizon announced Thursday, September 5, 2019 deploy the 5G in thirteen stadiums of American football in the United States. Problem: the nature of millimeter waves does not allow them to cross certain obstacles. Sports infrastructures will not be fully covered, which hinders the development of B2B uses.<\/p>\n

A powerful network so that viewers can share a good time on social networks, but not enough to broadcast a match on television. Verizon’s 5G technology, which the operator announced Thursday, September 5, 2019 to deploy in thirteen stadiums of the National Football League (NFL) in the United States , could be disappointing in terms of B2B uses. The operator will rely on the waves are called “millimeters” (mmWaves), which guarantee a high speed but can not cross all obstacles in their path.<\/p>\n

USE CASES STILL LIMITED<\/strong><\/p>\n

The millimeter waves – whose frequencies are between 30 and 300 GHz and whose wavelength does not spread over more than 10 mm – do not propagate very far either. For example, no network will be available in corridors or changing rooms. “The service will be concentrated in certain seating areas ,” Verizon said in a statement , “and in the future it may be available elsewhere in and around the stadium.” As reported by our colleagues Ars Technica site , the operator did not want to specify whether the choice to use millimeter waves (rather than other frequency bands such as Sub-5 GHz) are for something. He intends to equip the remaining 18 NFL stadiums soon.<\/p>\n

Still, this situation could be detrimental for some B2B uses. Exit, for the moment, the live broadcast of a meeting via the 5G. Beyond the broadcasters, the clubs could also be penalized in their sales of goodies or beverages … just as to collect data, in order to offer a better experience to support . Verizon says that they should eventually be able to use it “as part of security or maintenance operations” .<\/p>\n
