Ahead of Super Bowl LVII, Verizon invested more than $100 million in network upgrades and enhancements in and around State Farm Stadium and the greater Phoenix area. Inside the stadium, Verizon installed 490 5G nodes — 66 of which are the carrier’s newest 5G mmWave nodes — and 1,400 4G and 5G antennas. This investment, the carrier’s Vice President of Device Technology Brian Mecum told RCR Wireless News at Mobile World Congress 2023, paid off.
