Ford Field
KLA completed Ford Field’s off-season renovation project in 2016 and continues to make upgrades to the stadium. KLA completed neutral host DAS design and installation to boost cell service so patrons can use their wireless products without interference or dead spots. 500 new access points were installed to cover the bowl areas; as well as a refresh to 500 additional access points to increase capacity to 100 users per point. The overall coverage areas for the project included back of house, bowl areas, offices, suites, and concourses. A refresh was completed in 2021, bringing the total number of access points in the stadium to 1,200.
In addition to this, KLA installed a new arena sound system. KLA also installed new cabling to support Point of Sale devices, TV’s, monitors, and existing network upgrades. New coaxial, triaxial, and fiber optic cabling was installed in 2016 to meet and enhance broadcast system requirements for Fox Sports and ESPN. KLA provides on-site support for all events at the arena.
Recently, KLA upgraded the new official sportsbook at Ford Field to bring live betting to the stadium. KLA installed larger and newer screens at the sportsbook.
