San José International Airport
Delivering the fastest airport Wi-Fi in the US
When San José’s Mineta International Airport (SJC), located in the heart of Silicon Valley, underwent a $1.3 billion modernization, they sought to expand the City of San José’s free Wi-Fi network to deliver reliable, high-capacity connectivity for thousands of weekly travelers to enjoy a seamless Wi-Fi experience from the airport to the city’s heavily trafficked downtown core.
Through a partnership with SmartWAVE Technologies and RUCKUS, the airport deployed hundreds of RUCKUS Wi-Fi 6 access points (AP) throughout all passenger terminals and outdoor curbside areas. With RUCKUS technology, SJC now ranks #1 for the fastest free airport Wi-Fi in the US, providing an average download speed of 203 Mbps and delivering an overall improved traveler experience
