Extricom to Showcase and Present at the Business Stadium Summit

NEW YORK, May 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Extricom Ltd., a developer of high-performance, next generation enterprise wireless LAN that provides seamless mobility and high throughput with their patented Channel Blanket™ architecture to critical applications in warehouses, hospitals, schools and public venues is pleased to announce that it will be exhibiting at the Business Stadium Summit, taking place in Turin, Italy, May 14-16, 2012.

The Business Stadium Summit is the largest dedicated meeting in the world for owners, operators and developers of the world's leading stadiums, arenas, and major sport venues.

WLAN is quickly becoming a 'must-have' for large public venues (LPVs) that want to maintain or enhance their competitive edge, and maximize profits. With the majority of sports and music fans now being  mobile device owners, these devices can be leveraged with important new revenue opportunities for LPV operators, as well as providing an enhanced entertainment experience for fans. Cellular networks were not designed to support the ultra-high user densities and data requirements of large events, so a reliable, high-bandwidth WLAN is essential. The WLAN can also be leveraged to provide enhanced broadband communications to press room and VIP areas, and simultaneously support other key facets of LPV operation, such as video security.

Traditional WLAN architectures are not up to this challenge. That's why Extricom's Channel Blanket ™ WLAN architecture has been chosen and deployed by leading stadiums and arenas around the world, following competitive selection processes. Extricom has built a global track-record of performance excellence in public venues and sports arenas, which are particularly demanding environments where other enterprise WLAN's have often failed to deliver the goods.

The intrinsic noise immunity of the Channel Blanket, and its ability to provide reliable, high bandwidth connections to high-density user populations, has made it a natural choice for LPV's.  The Channel Blanket also offers tiered QoS, robust security, and a very competitive TCO.  In an era of intensive wireless usage powered by the market explosion of smart phones, iPads, iPods, tablets and other communication devices, the Channel Blanket meets the challenge by providing a robust, responsive Wi-Fi connection to any client, in any environment.

Rony Homossany, Extricom's VP of International Sales, will be presenting at the summit's Pecha kucha Innovations Showcase session. He will discuss the Extricom Channel Blanket™ technology and its unique benefits for LPV deployments, as well as the resulting payoff to Extricom's stadium customers.  

 "I am naturally delighted to have the opportunity to showcase the Extricom solution at the Stadium Business Summit this year and I am looking forward to presenting our breakthrough solution, and why it is the wireless LAN of choice by venues who need to deliver top-quality performance all the time, guaranteed."
