Vodafone UK has drastically improved mobile signal at London Stansted Airport, due to a dedicated in-building coverage system, as part of the company’s network improvement plan, both in the capital and across the country as a whole. The airport now enjoys strong and reliable Vodafone 4G following the installation of a dedicated in-building mobile coverage system, as a result of work with one of the company’s infrastructure partners, Wireless Infrastructure Group (WIG).
The improvements mean Vodafone customers – either travelling through its terminal or working on site – now have access to both fast mobile data speeds and better call quality. The dedicated coverage will also support the businesses based across the airport by supplying the essential connectivity needed to support tools such as ePOS (electronic Point of Sale) systems and digital marketing campaigns.
The news comes as Vodafone celebrates being named London’s Best Network by NET CHECK for the second year running. It’s also part of Vodafone’s ongoing investment in its London network to ensure it can keep up with the capital’s ever–growing demand for mobile data. This includes dedicated coverage solutions installed in both Westfield shopping centres, Battersea Power Station, and busy stadiums such as Tottenham Hotspur and Wembley Stadium.
Andrea Dona, UK Network Director, Vodafone
London Stansted is a busy UK travel hub and with its expansion plans, it’s only going to get busier. Which is why, as The Nation’s Network as well as London’s Best Network, it’s been an absolute pleasure to support them with the introduction of our strong and reliable 4G coverage. The airport now has the building blocks it needs to support its growth, as well as service its passengers and business vendors going forward.
