Shield World =/= Dyson Sphere.
The two act in a same way, but look different and function differently. In such a way that you could best say a Dyson Sphere might be a more sofisticated take on the Shield World concept.
From what we know, you enter a Shield World by going through, basically a door, in the planet.
And from what we know, you enter a Dyson Sphere by stepping inside a portal.
From what we've seen in the trailer, the "thing" looks more like....the Ark Portal. And if it does function like that one, it will most likely transport us to an unknown location, much like how the Ark Portal linked to the Ark. In that scenario, we could be transported to a Shield World/Dyson Sphere, but also to any other random place the Forerunners/Precursors linked to that Portal.
Given the fact it looks more like a Portal and not like the entry points we know for Shield Worlds and Dyson Spheres, I'd say this last scenario is most likely.
