Deutsche Messe's exhibition center in Hanover will get its own 5G campus network before the end of this year. This will reportedly create Europe's largest 5G exhibition center, equipped with the new, high-speed generation in mobile communications.

In partnership with Deutsche Telekom, Deutsche Messe is gradually transforming the exhibition grounds into an innovative multifunctional campus. Deutsche Telekom is ensuring comprehensive, high-performance 5G coverage over a total area of more than 1.4 million square meters.

Telekom is implementing the campus network as a hybrid network. The fairground will have a private network that trade fairs and exhibitors can use for their applications. At the same time, visitors to the trade fairs have excellent coverage with the public 5G network covering the exhibition area.

With the 5G expansion, the Hanover site will also get one of the largest 5G campus networks in Europe in terms of area. In the first step, Deutsche Telekom is equipping five halls and the entire outdoor area, including adjacent parking lots, with 5G. Telekom will then supply all 30 halls and buildings on the exhibition grounds.
