Racing into the digital age: installation of glass fiber for the Weidenpesch equestrian track
Telekom is stepping up its game in providing faster and more reliable internet connections, with a significant focus on the horse racing track in Weidenpesch, Cologne, and homes within the city.
The horse racing track, which attracts up to 140,000 equestrian sports fans annually, has been equipped with state-of-the-art fiber optic technology. This upgrade has not only improved the internet connection for the large audience but also extended it to the backstage area during concerts.
The fiber optics project at the racetrack has also been made available to Cologne residents. Homeowners and private households can now book a tariff at www.telekom.de/glasfaser to enjoy the benefits of fiber optic connections.
For multi-family houses with three or more units, the house connection is provided for free with the owner's consent. A tariff booking is then required for internet usage. Homeowners of single or two-family houses get the house connection for free when booking a tariff.
Telekom has handled the coordination with the property owner for fiber optic installation in apartments, ensuring minimal disruption to ongoing operations. The company has completed two kilometers of underground construction for this project, demonstrating its commitment to providing top-notch internet services.
Fiber optic cables enable significantly higher transmission rates than copper cables, making them a more efficient choice for the climate. They are also less prone to interference and more robust against external influences such as water. This means faster internet speeds, a more stable connection, and fewer service disruptions.
Fast internet is now a key location factor for staff housing and catering for guests at the racetrack. It provides reliable connections for security systems and quick Wi-Fi at catering events. Additionally, a fiber optic connection increases the value of a property when selling or renting.
Television teams broadcasting from the racetrack benefit from this technology, allowing for uninterrupted live streams of horse races. The racetrack now offers a record-breaking bandwidth of up to two gigabits per second.
However, there is currently no specific information in the search results about which German city offers fiber optic connections or whether fiber optic technology has been installed at the horse racing track in Weidenpesch. For more information and to book a tariff, visit www.telekom.de/glasfaser.
