Minor League Baseball (MiLB) has selected Extreme Networks as an Official Technology Innovation Partner, supporting the testing of new stadium and in-game technologies as they are rolled out more widely across Minor League Baseball stadiums.
Additionally, Extreme has been named the Official Wi-Fi Solution, Wi-Fi Analytics Solution and WAN Edge Solution provider of MiLB in a five-year partnership.
As part of the agreement, MiLB will leverage ExtremeCloud SD-WAN to power secure connectivity for important information sharing between teams and regional training facilities.
Neil Boland, Chief Information Security Officer, Major League Baseball, said: “Though our regional teams are tied together through our organization, geographically, they are spread out across the US. Extreme’s SD-WAN solution will enable our regional teams to function as if they were all on the same campus, sharing information and knowledge that will help them play a better game.
“And in our stadiums, Extreme will provide the foundation for adopting more fan-facing and in-game technology through secure, fast and reliable connectivity, as well as analytics to help us better understand performance, adoption and impact. Extreme will make us smarter and faster when it comes to understanding how we improve our game as well as experiences on and off the field.”
