Temporary event internet
A dedicated connection for the whole event, even where the existing line is missing or cannot handle the expected load.

Why IE Sicilia
The connection is part of the rig, not an afterthought.
An event puts production, payments, accreditation, staff and audience on the same network. We design it first, install it and keep watch while the event runs.
Bonded lines
Fibre, 5G from different carriers and satellite become one network: more capacity and more paths to destination.
Automatic failover
Link health is checked continuously. If one degrades, traffic moves to the others with no manual action.
Segmented networks
Production, payments, staff and exhibitors run on dedicated VLANs, with different priority from guest Wi-Fi.
Engineers on site
Installation, testing before doors open, monitoring and response during the event. Then we strip it all down.
Services
What we install and run.
Every event uses a different mix of these services. The site survey decides which ones are actually needed and how to size them.
Line bonding and failover
Available sources are managed as a single infrastructure, with load balancing, traffic priority and automatic continuity if something fails.

Bonding and continuity
Several lines, one network that keeps going.
The connections available at the venue are managed together: capacity added up, traffic balanced and priority given to the services that cannot slow down. Drop a line and watch what happens to the traffic.

Coverage
Wi-Fi is designed around density, not floor area.
A thousand people packed in front of a stage behave differently from a thousand spread across a hall. Access points are chosen and placed accordingly.
- Concurrent users and devices estimated together with you
- Professional indoor and outdoor access points
- Obstacles, interference and channels checked on site
- Priority to critical services, remaining capacity to the public
Types of event
Networks built around how your event actually runs.
A festival in a square, an exhibition hall and a conference with a live stream have different problems. The load changes, the priorities change, the design changes.
Festivals and concerts
Production, streaming, POS, ticketing, access control, staff and audience on separate networks.
A stage in a town square puts the gallery, tills, accreditation and thousands of phones on air at once. Networks are separated and prioritised, with flight-cased equipment and outdoor coverage on the busiest spots.
- Production network isolated from the public
- Upload bandwidth reserved for the gallery
- Coverage for tills and ticketing
- Technical crew on site during the show
Trade fairs and exhibitions
Visitors, exhibitors, accreditation, QR codes, digital ticketing and payments.
In exhibition halls the problem is density: many people standing in the same spot, with devices asking for bandwidth at once. Coverage is designed around density, not floor area.
- Wi-Fi sized on real crowd density
- Dedicated exhibitor network
- Accreditation and QR codes always responsive
- Stand support throughout the show
Conferences and conventions
Live streams, parallel rooms, remote speakers, registration platforms.
A convention cannot afford a stream dropping during the keynote. The gallery and the streaming platform get reserved bandwidth and a backup path ready to take over.
- Upload reserved for the gallery
- Links with remote speakers
- Coordinated parallel rooms
- Separate network for the registration desk
Corporate events
Conventions, product launches, meetings, training, hybrid sessions.
Corporate events need confidentiality and predictability: separate networks for guests and internal staff, controlled access and, where required, encrypted transport back to headquarters.
- Guest network separated from the internal one
- Encrypted transport to headquarters
- Access with dedicated credentials
- Support for hybrid sessions
Sporting events
Long courses, timing points, press areas, live coverage.
Races and sporting events spread across points far apart. We cover start, finish, timing and press area, linking them through the lines available on site.
- Coverage across multiple points of the course
- Network for timing and officials
- Press area and broadcast positions
- Connectivity even with no fixed line
Productions and live broadcasts
Broadcast, remote contributions, outside broadcast, hybrid events.
For production crews the connection is part of the kit. It is sized on bitrate and number of feeds, with a second route always ready.
- Bandwidth calculated on the planned feeds
- Redundant path for the signal
- Testing under real event conditions
- Monitoring during the live show
Public and municipal events
Patron saint feasts, food festivals, cultural initiatives, municipal events.
Squares and old villages often have no usable line. We bring connectivity on site and make it available to organisers, stands and the public.
- Connectivity where no line reaches
- Network for stands and operators
- Wi-Fi for the public
- Installation compatible with historic venues
How we work
From site survey to de-rig.
Five steps, always the same. It is the fastest way to reach opening time with no surprises.
01
Event analysis
Venue, duration, headcount, devices to connect and the services that cannot stop.
02
Line assessment
We check fibre, mobile networks from the various carriers and satellite usable on site.
03
Network design
We define capacity, redundancy, access points, segmentation and traffic priority.
04
Install and test
We rig the infrastructure and test it simulating the expected load.
05
Live monitoring
During the event we keep watch on links, hardware and load, stepping in when needed.
Technical flow
Where your event traffic actually goes.
From the line available on site to the device of whoever is working or attending, every step is managed and monitored.

On-site support
While the event runs, someone is watching the network.
Testing happens before doors open, simulating the expected conditions. Then, while the event runs, links, hardware and load stay under control.
- Full test before doors open
- Monitoring of links and hardware
- On-site or remote response if anything goes wrong
- De-rig and handover of the venue at the end
Frequently asked questions
The answers we give most often.
The final solution always depends on the survey, the coverage available and the nature of the event.
Can you bring internet to a venue with no fibre?
Yes. When there is no usable line we bring connectivity ourselves with multi-carrier mobile networks and LEO satellite. The final solution is confirmed after the site survey, because it depends on the actual coverage there.
What happens if a line goes down?
Links are monitored continuously. If a connection degrades or drops, traffic is automatically routed over the remaining active lines: the event stays connected, although total capacity may drop until the line comes back.
Can you provide Wi-Fi for the audience too?
Yes. We design coverage with professional access points chosen and placed according to venue size, expected number of users and crowd density. Guest Wi-Fi stays separate from critical services.
Can you create separate networks for POS, staff and guests?
Yes. The infrastructure can be segmented with dedicated VLANs and SSIDs: tills and POS, production and streaming, organisers, exhibitors, speakers and audience can each have their own network with different priority.
Do you provide dedicated connections for live streaming?
Yes. For live shows we reserve upload bandwidth for the gallery and give video flows priority, with a backup path over the other lines. Capacity is sized on the bitrate and number of feeds planned.
How far in advance should the site survey happen?
It depends on complexity. For large events or difficult venues a few weeks ahead is sensible, because the survey can reveal the need for extra hardware or permits. Simpler situations need far less lead time.
Does the service include support during the event?
Yes. It includes testing before doors open, monitoring of links and hardware during the event and response if anything goes wrong. Presence can be on site or remote, as agreed.
Which areas do you cover?
We work mainly in Palermo and across the whole of Sicily, with surveys and installations in every province of the island.
Can the infrastructure be installed outdoors?
Yes. We use flight-cased equipment, outdoor access points and antennas on trusses or poles. Power, weather protection and cable routes are defined during the survey.
