Metro Toronto Convention Centre Delivers Scalable Networking

The Metro Toronto Convention Centre is regarded as one of North America’s leading convention centers, hosting over 21,000 events during its 40 years of operation. The massive center located in the heart of Toronto features almost 500,000 square feet of exhibit space, 77 meeting rooms, ballrooms, and a state-of-the-art theatre. The MTCC was created with the intent to increase tourism revenue, and now generates half a billion in economic impact yearly and thousands of jobs in the city of Toronto.


Challenges

  • Adequate bandwidth to support over 6000 simultaneous wireless users across a million square feet of space
  • Seamless end user experience for guests and clients with zero downtime
  • Flexibility and adaptability to build and change networks as needed multiple times a week
"The biggest advantage that we’ve had with having Extreme as our technology partner has been the ease of use from a configuration and installation perspective. We’re building and changing networks two, three times a week and Extreme has allowed us to accomplish that."
