Cox Communications yesterday announced that it is providing critical high-speed broadband, managed Wi-Fi, advanced convention services and smart community solutions for the 2024 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), hosted by the Consumer Technology Association Jan. 9-12, 2024. Cox has supported the show with its advanced network infrastructure for more than a decade.
Because CES attendees and exhibitors need reliable wired, wireless and cellular connections, Cox is providing:
2,800 Wifi Access Points, enabling a fast, dense and high performing wifi network that covers every inch of the show space
802.11ax Technology, ensuring higher speeds over longer distances and access points that support a higher number of devices
Distributed Antenna System (DAS), delivering complete indoor cellular coverage
5GHz Wireless, providing faster data rates with less interference
High Capacity Broadband, going straight to the convention floor, enough connectivity to transmit more than 1.2 Gigabytes per second
Redundant, Dedicated Fiber, bringing dual 10 gigabit connections to the convention center to help ensure secure, reliable communications
Cox Mobile will be front and center at CES, as Cox Senior Vice President Tony Krueck and Chief Marketing and Sales Officer Mark Lawson host a media lunch panel on Jan. 9 focused on mobile trends. Members of the media can reach out to Maria Esposito (maria.esposito@cox.com) for more information.
Cox's connectivity solutions reach far beyond the Las Vegas Convention Center. Cox Business provides phone, internet and IT solutions to power the city's major event spaces and venues that are welcoming CES visitors.
As a member of Cox's Smart Gigabit Communities (SGC) program, Las Vegas is equipped with Cox's "smart community" solutions, which optimize logistics with connected streetlights, intelligent parking and a video analytics solution that creates more efficient and safer loading zones.
