A full stadium, a goal and an emergency: This is how the Telefónica network responds in critical situations

Telefónica shown at Mobile World Congress (MWC) a practical case of its recent launch, Titan Connect, a pioneering ecosystem of solutions in Spain that provides secure and uninterrupted connectivity to companies.

This experience shows the flexibility and strength of the network to maintain communications in exceptional conditions and its adaptability in critical situations..

In a sports stadium with a capacity of 90.000 personas, while playing a Champions League soccer match, Connectivity takes on a prominent role not only so that viewers enjoy the best experience but also to enable the necessary actions to be activated to solve an emergency.. In this sense, in the recreation shown at the MWC, the network faces a new challenge: offer the best connectivity and services to facilitate almost immediate assistance to one of those attending the sporting event at the moment of taking a penalty that becomes a goal.

Telefónica's communications respond thanks to the integration of a set of technologies and capabilities that facilitate the resizing of the network so as not to interrupt the flow of data and voice among the public., at the same time that the health emergency is attended to through secure and prioritized connectivity., accompanying the patient from the moment he feels unwell until a connected ambulance takes him to the hospital.

So, connectivity is maintained thanks to 5G, fiber and satellite connectivity, while the functionality of observability (tool that provides complete, real-time visibility into performance, behavior and health online thanks to Artificial Intelligence) reinforces Telefónica's public infrastructure to provide the best service in this type of events and so that the public has a good digital experience, both on your devices and in the stadium, through elements such as video markers or vending machines.

Other services are also trained through the network, as 5G SA virtual private networks with Network Slicing enabled, to which the drone that flies over the field is connected, or how Computer Vision, a service that analyzes images and video in real time, and that in this case he would supervise the stands to detect possible anomalies, such as throwing an object or caring for an individual who requires medical attention. All this information is processed close to the field, with minimal latency, and then send it safely by network that is cyber protected.

Smart analysis

When the intelligent network analysis locates a sudden fall of a person, it notifies the stadium supervisors so they can interrupt the match., activate a drone to transport a defibrillator to the scene and send the coordinates to the paramedic.

The healthcare professional transfers the patient to the ambulance where he can collect the vital signs using a medical backpack and even send a video with evidence to be evaluated by the specialist.. During that interaction, A system based on artificial intelligence analyzes the clinical dialogue in real time, generates an automatic and complete transcription of the patient's medical record in a structured way; so clinicians can focus on patient care, focusing on the intervention with the guarantees that all relevant medical data will be included in the report prepared by the AI ​​that will later be validated by the doctor. This information is transmitted to the hospital through connections with Telefónica's public network during the journey and thanks to its Network Slicing functionalities., with guaranteed coverage even in areas of high tourist concentration.

Eduardo Ariste, General Director of Companies and Administrations of Telefónica Spain, points out:
“The strength of the corporate business has become a strategic priority, and the best connectivity is one of our hallmarks. Talking about communications today means overcoming the traditional approach based on isolated solutions. For a company or an administration, It is not enough to have a good fiber network or advanced mobile coverage; it is necessary to have a comprehensive vision, that combines different technologies and capabilities in a unique environment specifically designed to guarantee the continuity of the most strategic processes in any circumstance.”.

Uninterrupted activity

Titan Connect was born in January 2026 to integrate technological solutions and functionalities that allow communications to work in all types of situations, making the benefits of digitalization available to people at any time and circumstance.

This new proposal from Telefónica brings together fiber connectivity under the same umbrella, of 5G Stand Alone, satellite, cloud, edge, along with observability capabilities, automation, additional power supply and safe management 24×7. This ecosystem of solutions protects the continuity of the activity of companies and administrations, and facilitates the deployment of new digital services.

This integrated approach is especially relevant for sectors where coverage is a critical element. Public administrations, financial entities, hospitals and health centers, transport companies, energy, industry or retail depend on secure connections, stable and permanent to guarantee essential services. In these environments, an interruption, however brief, can have economic consequences, social or even human.
