Roll-Out In and Around Aspire Zone
March 17, 2019
Vodafone Qatar announced that it has
completed the roll out of its GigaNet fibre connectivity network
across the Aspire Zone sports complex, home to some of the
world’s finest sporting facilities and due to play a prominent
role in the upcoming 2022 World Cup.
This fibre connectivity, capable of
handling speeds of up to 1 Gigabit per second, coupled with
Vodafone’s live 5G network, now provides the Zone with a
world-class communications infrastructure that allows its
facilities to optimize, automate and innovate.
With hundreds of thousands of
visitors expected to descend on the Zone in 4 years to watch the
Middle East’s first World Cup inside Khalifa Stadium, high speed
connectivity and technology will form a large part of delivering
an unforgettable fan experience.
Vodafone Qatar said: “Aspire Zone is
doing incredible work helping develop a strong sports community
in the country and raising a new generation of athletes. We are
pleased to expand our fibre footprint in the country to include
such a key player, providing it with our state-of-the-art
infrastructure and making further progress in our ambition to
turn Qatar into one of the most connected countries in the
world. We are also proud that our infrastructure will contribute
to providing world cup fans with a unique end-to end digital
experience which will ensure a memorable tournament.”
Aiming to build a strong digital
ecosystem in Qatar, Vodafone has been providing some of the
country’s most important projects with a variety of services
including Fibre connectivity, 5G network and IoT solutions. Last
month Vodafone launched GigaNet – the network of the future –
the company’s promise to continuously pioneer the latest
technologies and innovations.
