What the show rules say, and how exhibitors set it up.
What NAB’s rules say
NAB Show New York lists the Javits Center as its exclusive provider of internet and telecommunications. Its rules make exhibitors follow FCC rules for wireless transmitters; one that interferes must be turned off if it isn’t licensed, or turned down if it is. Get NAB Exhibit Services’ OK in writing before you bring MR·NET.
Set it up wired
Once NAB approves, switch MR·NET’s Wi-Fi off and plug encoders, demo laptops and screens into its four Ethernet ports. Live IP video and cloud demos then run on one bonded Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile connection.
Blocking and jamming are illegal
The FCC says no convention center or its network operator may intentionally block or disrupt personal Wi-Fi hot spots, and federal law bans jamming Wi-Fi or cellular signals. A show’s own rules are a separate, contractual matter.
What you’d save at Javits prices
Own it once, use it at every show.
Compared with a 10 Mbps dedicated Javits line at the 2026 advance rate ($13,542; $18,056 at the standard rate that applies now), from the Javits 2026 Exhibitor Price List. Data: 25 GB a show day (our customers use 10 to 40 GB) for the 2-day show floor at $8/GB. Excludes shipping and tax.
