Texolve Digital Installs Riedel Equipment Across Pittsburgh’s Three Major Sports Venues

Texolve Digital, a Pittsburgh-based systems integrator and Riedel partner for nearly 10 years, has deployed the company’s cutting-edge intercom and communications solutions across Pittsburgh’s three major sports venues: PNC Park, home of the Pittsburgh Pirates; PPG Paints Arena, home of the Pittsburgh Penguins; and Acrisure Stadium, home of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

This comprehensive deployment marks a significant milestone in standardizing and enhancing communications infrastructure for the city's professional sports teams, ensuring that all three stadiums now benefit from seamless and reliable communications for game-day operations and live event productions.

Both PNC Park and PPG Paints Arena received a complete intercom system upgrade from top to bottom, with 9-10 Bolero antennas, 10-20 Bolero wireless beltpacks, 30-35 Riedel SmartPanels of various sizes, and four-wire interfaces installed at each location, as well as an Artist 1024 matrix frame, allowing from 16 to 1024 ports at each park. Acrisure Stadium received an all new intercom system comprising 11 Bolero antennas, eight Bolero beltpacks, 35 SmartPanels of different sizes, four-wire interfaces, and Riedel’s Connect Trio for phone connections.

The Riedel systems have notably improved operations by expanding coverage into previously inaccessible areas, such as tunnels and underground spaces where announcers and teams may travel. This enhanced reach has allowed broadcasters and production teams to capture a greater variety of content, improving the overall fan experience both in-stadium and for viewers at home.
