September 24, 2013

ExteNet Systems, site Inc., capsule a leader in providing distributed networks for the wireless industry, today announced that it has been named the Official Arena Wireless Network Provider of the American Hockey League (AHL).

This deal comes on the heels of a similar agreement ExteNet signed last week with AEG Worldwide facilities.

ExteNet will work with AHL teams and venues to create opportunities to design, build, own and operate distributed networks in AHL arenas to enable 3G, 4G LTE and Wi-Fi based wireless services. ExteNet’s wireless solution for the AHL also includes a mobile application platform called “Go Beyond Live,” developed in conjunction with Wireless Fan Network (WFN) specifically for sports and entertainment facilities and owners. Go Beyond Live enhances in-venue experience via a portfolio of value-added applications including mobile ordering for arena concessionaries and merchandise and enhanced mobile video service delivery.

“ExteNet Systems has significantly enhanced the fan experience via their advanced wireless networks at many prominent facilities,” said Chris Nikolis, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Business development for the American Hockey League. “This is a win-win for the AHL and our teams because connecting with our existing fans, attracting new fans and delivering the best in-arena experience are priorities for all 30 member clubs.”

“Our work with prestigious sports and entertainment facilities like the Dunkin’ Donuts Center, home to the AHL’s Providence Bruins, and the new Barclays Center in Brooklyn are great examples of how enhanced mobile connectivity at venues can help attract fans to those venues, enable mobile applications, enhance the overall fan experience, and facilitate new revenue-generating opportunities,” said Jon Davis, Vice President of Business Development for ExteNet. “We, and WFN, are honored to be selected by the AHL to assist in this exciting opportunity to provide an enhanced wireless experience to the AHL teams and their fans.”
