Delivering Tomorrow’s Connectivity Today
Indoor connectivity is considered a must-have and a building’s fourth utility today, along with air, water and gas. Building automation systems are relying increasingly on the same communications network. With the importance of safety and the FCC now working on regulations to pinpoint the exact origination of 911 calls from within a building, the need for reliable connectivity indoors is paramount.
Extenet is a pioneer in enabling indoor connectivity, with our dedicated real estate customer team focused on addressing the communications infrastructure needs of ownership. Fiber, small cells and DAS are cornerstones of Extenet’s solution offerings. We operate networks in 250+ marquee buildings for portfolio REITs and venue owners with a mix of commercial office space, sports and entertainment venues, healthcare facilities, hotels and convention centers, and transit systems.
Extenet views technology as an enabler and focuses on long-term value creation. Our principal goal is to improve the value of the property and maximize returns. Monetizing campus-wide assets and serving their customers are important for ownership:
Using a consultative approach, we focus on high-capacity managed fiber to intelligently manage building services, including air, water, gas, electricity, elevators, signage and security. Small cells and DAS connect to the same fiber backbone to enable 4G LTE and 5G mobility service. Edge networks can be deployed in the buildings to localize computing and intelligence and support features like content delivery, private networks and advanced security. Data centers and points of presence (POPs) within buildings can be an additional amenity and monetization opportunity.
Property owners value our technical expertise and our ability to ensure maximum carrier choices inside the building. A comprehensive needs assessment upfront before beginning a project helps accommodate unique requirements. Our NOC is available 24/7 for our customers and addresses their technical and operational needs.

Mobile and broadband connectivity are considered a building’s fourth utility today. During walk-throughs, prospective lessees often assess connectivity and phone signal strength in different areas of a building. Tenants assess building amenities when renewing leases and often place a high value on the trifecta of connectivity, building automation and safety. With people using multiple devices in their work and personal lives, their expectation for interconnectivity has skyrocketed. Building owners face the additional challenge of ensuring choice for both mobile and fixed broadband service for their tenants. Extenet is a proven and trusted communications infrastructure partner for Building Owners and Property Managers with networks operated in 200+ marquee buildings. With ownership focusing on increasing property value and ensuring its attractiveness for tenants, we focus on delivering advanced connectivity to help ownership differentiate their property. We prioritize a connected experience in-building and undertake the responsibility of delivering a high-performance, fiber-based communications network.
Upon wiring a building with a high-capacity fiber backbone, we offer an evolutionary path to building owners to transition their building management services onto the same fiber. This automates traditional building services and provides a consolidated platform to control all services including, air, water, gas, elevators, content delivery, security cameras, signage and parking system. Extenet’s managed fiber offering delivers this value-add functionality today. The same fiber helps deliver advanced mobility services via small cells and DAS. Extenet, a leader in providing outdoor and indoor connectivity, works with all the Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) to enable their wireless service throughout the venue.

Extenet advances connectivity in sports & entertainment venues and campuses with Fiber, 4G LTE & 5G Mobility, Private LTE, Edge and Building Communications Infrastructure solutions. Consultation and managed services are our core service offerings for venue and team ownership.
Sports & Entertainment (S&E) venues and team owners emphasize fan and patron experience. Luring people away from their big screens at home to the venue for gameday requires more than on-field performance. Advanced connectivity in the venue and campus matters immensely as social media posts and instant sharing of pictures and videos are essential to today’s fans. Terabytes of data traverse over devices during gameday, and the communications infrastructure supporting this high-bandwidth multimedia traffic must perform at its peak. Delivering this connected experience requires a campus-wide, high-performance communications network. Extenet is a proven communications infrastructure partner for venue and team owners. We serve ownership by enhancing the fan experience via our high-speed and high-bandwidth networks. We currently operate our networks in 30+ marquee S&E venues, where we enable fiber-based mobility service—powered by small cells and DAS—to deliver a connected experience for fans and patrons.
Watching replays on demand from select cameras, ordering food and merchandise from seats, and accessing real-time stats on players and teams exemplify value-add applications that can monetize the network and add revenue streams for ownership. Extenet provides the underlying network and consultative services to ownership. Technology leadership is important, and we focus on innovative offerings. For instance, our advanced network at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, is the first to support 5G service for a Mobile Network Operator (MNO). Private networks are important for venues, and we enable edge-networking-based, private LTE networks. Our operations team manages the network before, during and after events.
