Extreme Teams up with Verizon Business to Refashion Old Trafford Stadium with Fast and Reliable Connectivity

Manchester United to Modernize Fan Experience with Next Generation Digital Services Powered by High Density Wi-Fi

Extreme Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXTR), a leader in cloud networking, today announced it has selected Verizon Business (Nasdaq: VRZN) as its deployment partner to roll out wireless connectivity solutions for Manchester United at Old Trafford Stadium, as part of Extreme’s partnership with the EPL club. Scheduled to begin later this year, the deployment will provide Manchester United fans with fast, reliable Wi-Fi capabilities and increase the Club's ability to deliver high-performance, low-latency and secure digital services such as mobile ticketing and touchless transactions.

Extreme Venue Analytics will also provide Manchester United with actionable insights from the Wi-Fi network, providing information such as app performance and usage, foot traffic flow and effectiveness of concessions, among others. These insights will enable Manchester United to create more customized experiences on match day.

Verizon and Extreme have collaborated on several high-profile US venue deployments for organizations like the NHL® NASCAR, and NFL, and large events like the Super Bowl.
