Britain’s largest professional cycling race selects Cambium Networks solutions with the help of British WISP KBR Wi-Fi. Spanning eight cities, the rapidly-deployable, reliable, event-specific Wi-Fi coverage delivered by cnPilot™ keeps up the pace for event staff and spectators, seeing the Tour of Britain through from the checkered flag to the finish line.
For the Tour of Britain’s multi-system network, KBR sought a solution that could be brought online in conjunction with the progress of the races and meet the intense demand for bandwidth given the user density along the course – deploying and operable within tight deadlines, with the capacity to support thousands of simultaneous connections for spectators sharing their excitement on social media.
