About Boingo Wireless

Boingo Wireless designs, builds and manages wireless networks for airports, transportation hubs, stadiums, hospitals, military bases, commercial real estate and large residential properties, delivering converged 5G, cellular distributed antenna systems (DAS), small cells, towers, private 5G and managed Wi-Fi. The company says it is the largest operator of airport DAS, Wi-Fi and private 5G in the United States, with more than 130 airports and transit hubs relying on its neutral host networks and reaching over one billion travellers a year. Founded around twenty years ago with the aim of connecting people to the wireless internet anywhere on any device, Boingo also serves customers such as the US Department of Homeland Security and the New York Mets at Citi Field, and its work on New York's transportation hubs has been covered by the Wall Street Journal.

Airport solutions

  • DAS and small cells that improve cellular service, remove dead zones and boost signal strength for passengers and operations, with equipment shared among tier one carriers under a neutral host model
  • Private 5G and CBRS networks that power IoT and critical communications exclusively for the airport's own business, as deployed at Dallas Love Field
  • Managed Wi-Fi with Passpoint for automatic connection, free Wi-Fi sponsored by Boingo Media, and build-to-suit 5G towers for wide-area coverage
  • Layered network security, 24/7 network monitoring and customer care, and on-demand data and analytics

Airport customers

Case studies on the site cover John F. Kennedy International Airport, where a converged DAS and Wi-Fi network enabled contactless entry with mobile boarding passes, in-app concessions ordering and proximity-based passenger communications during the pandemic; Chicago O'Hare, which connects self-service kiosks and IoT devices with on-demand analytics; London Heathrow, where Boingo Wi-Fi supports streaming video, mobile boarding passes and security authentication; Los Angeles International Airport, whose Wi-Fi supports wayfinding, boarding passes and flight updates; and Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, which partnered with Boingo to design, build and manage neutral host 5G and Wi-Fi networks. The company publishes an eBook on transforming airports with 5G and Wi-Fi and a webinar on private networks for airport operations, and provides 24-hour customer support every day of the year for travellers at its airport hotspots and residents of military housing.
