在当今的移动和超互联社区中，城市旅行者的期望不断提高。乘客期望在旅行时获得无缝的互联网冲浪体验，因此地下交通基础设施中的互联网连接变得至关重要。过去几年，Wi-Fi 作为一种连接渠道在大约一半的地铁系统中非常受欢迎，预计这一数字将增长到四分之三左右；它的流行在于Wi-Fi可以为给定空间内的用户提供免费的互联网接入。很少有地铁会对乘客使用 Wi-Fi 收费，而超过一半的地铁对其使用施加限制。电信投资者推动了地铁基础设施中与移动通信覆盖相关的宽带连接投资和安装的主导商业模式。
Expectations of urban travelers are increasing in the mobile and hyper-connected community of today. A seamless Internet surfing experience while travelling is expected by passengers, and as a result, Internet connectivity in underground transport infrastructure is becoming of the utmost importance. Wi-Fi has been quite popular as a channel for connectivity over the past years in about half of metro systems, and that figure is expected to grow to about three-quarters; its popularity lies in the fact that Wi-Fi can provide complimentary access to the Internet for users in a given space. Few metros charge their passengers for access to Wi-Fi, while over half apply restrictions on its use. Telecom investors drive the dominant business model for investment and installation of broadband connectivity in metro infrastructure, as relates to mobile communication coverage.
