Key Communications Challenges for Event Organisers

Dragon boat races face unique challenges in beach environments, where traditional walkie-talkies suffer from terrain and weather interference. Organizers needed stable communications across the wide venue and efficient coordination between multiple race events in a noisy, crowded setting.

The entire system operated on HKT's reliable dedicated 5G network, with technical specialists providing on-site support throughout the event to ensure smooth operations.
