Amphenol Procom Contributes to Mobile Connectivity on London Underground
Are you looking to provide underground passengers with LTE connectivity? Below is an example of how Amphenol Procom recently provided part of a mobile connectivity solution in London Underground.
Most of London’s Tube station already have Wi-Fi coverage at the stations, but the signal drops while passengers are in transit. The requirement was, therefore, to help implement a 4G signal on the Jubilee Line, on trial, between Westminster and Canning Town with the intent of enhancing connectivity.
Amphenol Procom provided a wideband microcell antenna with a shroud that is fire retardant, which is also an LTE DAS Antenna covering the 690-2700 MHz band. With this solution Transport for London hopes to provide 4G access across the entire line by the end of the year.
The result will give passengers of the London Underground access to use all 4G operators and service for the ESN network, on platforms, in ticket halls and tunnels.
