Comcast (NASDAQ:CMCSA) Business will provide 1 Gbps Ethernet connections to five tracks hosting NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, NASCAR XFINITY Series and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series events. The services will provide Internet connectivity during race weekends at Dover International Speedway, Martinsville Speedway, Michigan International Speedway, New Hampshire Motor Speedway and Richmond International Raceway.
Comcast Business will work with APXnet and ARRIS (NASDAQ:ARRS) to deliver Internet connectivity to and from end user devices at each of the five tracks.
The Ethernet business services deployment is intended to help NASCAR Productions enhance communications between NASCAR officials and teams while they are operating within the infield and help broadcast partners send files from the media compound at each track, including large videos and graphics, reviewing replays, or sending inspection data.
