The client operates one of the busiest airports in Saudi Arabia, serving around 20 million passengers annually with plans for major expansion. To support growing traffic and operational demands, the airport required stronger and more reliable cellular connectivity across the facility.
The airport needed consistent cellular coverage across a large and complex environment while supporting increasing passenger numbers and operational communication needs. Ensuring reliable connectivity across the facility was essential for both passenger experience and airport operations.
Radio Frequency Interference
Cellular and wireless communication are essential for airport operations but are often affected by radio frequency interference, making reliable connectivity critical.
Suitable Solution with Maximum Reach
The project required indoor cellular coverage supporting STC, Zain, and Mobily across 2G, 3G, and 4G networks, with additional readiness for 5G and coverage in areas such as elevators.
Secure Network
A secure and well-managed network was required to protect communication channels and support increasing operational demands.
After reviewing the client’s requirements, MBUZZ designed a Smart DAS (Distributed Antenna System) to enhance cellular and Wi-Fi connectivity across the airport. The solution integrated multiple antennas to improve coverage, performance, and reliability.
The system also enabled centralized monitoring and management, allowing real-time performance optimization and more efficient network operations.
MBUZZ implemented a Smart DAS solution supporting multi-band, multi-operator connectivity across 2G, 3G, and 4G networks, with readiness for future 5G upgrades.
The scalable system improved network coverage across the airport while reducing operational complexity and supporting the client’s long-term connectivity goals.
