Case Study: Swisscom AG achieves reliable high-capacity event connectivity with Mimosa Networks

Mimosa Backhaul Wins Fans at Swiss Wrestling Festival

Swisscom AG faced a major networking challenge at the Swiss wrestling festival, one of Switzerland’s largest sporting events, where it needed temporary backhaul connectivity to support hundreds of thousands of attendees, broadcasters, media outlets, and event operations. The company required a high-capacity, reliable wireless network to link temporary sites across the festival grounds, and turned to Mimosa Networks for help, using Mimosa B5 backhaul radios.

Mimosa Networks implemented a wireless backhaul solution with B5 radios, including a 2.4 GHz radio link and several 5 GHz links, to deliver stable connectivity across the event. The network performed flawlessly, supporting critical applications such as media feeds, internet access, and operational traffic, and Swisscom reported that the Mimosa solution exceeded expectations and worked perfectly throughout the festival.
