AT&T’s march into the college stadium marketplace continues apace, with announcements today of a Wi-Fi and IPTV deal for the University of Wisconsin’s Camp Randall Stadium, and a DAS deployment at the University of Arkansas’s hoops home, the Bud Walton Arena.

While AT&T has been extremely active pushing primarily DAS deployments into college and pro stadiums, the IPTV deal for the 80,321-seat Camp Randall Stadium is an interesting twist (and one we’ll try to find out more about in an interview later on). For right now all we have to work with is this press release, which says AT&T will deploy an in-stadium video solution that brings “innovative video and digital content distribution solution on nearly 700 high definition screens.” To us this sounds like it might be a Cisco SportsVision deployment, but we’ll double-check since it’s the first time we’ve heard of a video deployment with an AT&T branding behind it.

On the Wi-Fi side, it seems AT&T is doing its usual job of high quality engineering, with 750 access points planned, according to the press release.

At Arkansas, where AT&T had previously deployed DAS in the football arena, it will now also do so in the 19,200-seat Bud Walton Arena. No word yet if this is a neutral host deployment that AT&T will allow other carriers onto, or if it is an AT&T-only deal.

DAS Pig Soooey! AT&T brings DAS upgrade to Razorback Stadium

The loyal fans of the University of Arkansas Razorbacks can now be assured of a better level of cellular connectivity at football games, thanks to a new DAS install at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium, courtesy of AT&T.

Unlike its recent Pac-12 infrastructure deal, the contract to put better cell coverage in Razorback land is being pitched as part of AT&T’s overall network small-cell upgrade, something AT&T calls Project Velocity IP. For us, the part of the budget it comes from doesn’t matter as much as it is another DAS win for AT&T, and this time in the biggest of college football conferences, the SEC.

AT&T even has a press release out on the news, linked here. We’re working on getting a list of all the recent AT&T DAS wins, since it seems like we’re writing about a new one every week. Anyone else out there putting in more DAS deployments? Let us know.
