Powering up Sunderland’s Stadium of Light with 5GA

This panel will examine how Boldyn and JMA Wireless worked together to modernize connectivity at Sunderland's Stadium of Light, delivering a materially improved experience for fans and operators alike. Using Boldyn's Connectivity-as-a-Service model, the project combined an evolved DAS supporting O-RAN fronthaul, JMA XRAN® 5G O-RAN technology, and Boldyn's Network Management System to create a fully virtualized indoor platform that significantly reduces space and power requirements while enabling high-performance 5G coverage for all 49,000 spectators.
