I wonder what the nearest cell tower could handle...
Also... "China Central Television (CCTV)", irony at its best.
It’s unlikely they are using cellular connections. It would be much cheaper to just use WiFi on a phone that doesn’t have cell network access. Or they may even hardwire Ethernet, depending on what the devices are capable of.
