Case Study: Mohegan Sun achieves seamless, future-ready in‑building wireless coverage with Black Box Network Services' DAS

Offering guest access to wireless services gives Mohegan Sun a competitive advantage

Mohegan Sun, a 1,200-room resort and major convention destination in Uncasville, CT, needed seamless, reliable wireless connectivity for guests and meeting attendees — including 3G/4G cellular and public Wi-Fi — but the building’s sunlight‑reflective exterior blocked RF signals. To avoid disruptive upgrades each time carriers or protocols changed, Mohegan Sun selected Black Box Network Services’ distributed antenna system (DAS) to provide unified indoor wireless coverage across its convention and meeting spaces.

Black Box Network Services installed the DAS, enabling a national carrier’s 3G service to be added in less than a month and delivering a consistent, reliable blanket of in‑building coverage that supports multiple providers, protocols and future services without system upgrades. The Black Box Network Services solution increased communications and guest convenience, proved cost‑effective and low‑maintenance, and gave Mohegan Sun a measurable competitive advantage in the meetings and convention market.
