Andrew has supplied a multi-operator ION (Intelligent Optical Network) fibre distributed antenna system to O2 in support of a coverage and capacity system inside The O2 over the last year. Andrew's 15 ION-M 9/18/21c tri-band remote units take signals from dedicated operator base stations or repeaters and spread them via fibre-optic cables throughout the arena to ensure reliable voice and data coverage for the millions of annual attendees to the entertainment venue. Andrew has worked often with O2 over the last 10 years, supplying wireless infrastructure solutions that include the management of most of the operator's repeater systems. The O2 recently confirmed its position as the most popular music venue on the planet, based on Pollstar arena figures that show first quarter 2008 ticket sales of almost half a million, which is the most worldwide. Many of the world's greatest acts have played at The O2.
