Some additional information that may be helpful:
What work needs to be done before the application process?
Prior to submitting a colocation application, engineering should be performed, so you know your system’s power and space requirements, the minimum elevation needed, frequencies and bandwidth, and what is needed for your backup power system.
If you get stuck, contact our consulting team to schedule an engineering consultation to determine your requirements and plan. We can help you figure out if you need equipment, a design plan, what frequency spectrum is available, etc.
What site services do you provide?
We can facilitate an installation quote and assist with ordering equipment for the install, perform the installation, and make the total process hands-off for you if needed. If there is a special need, such as determining the placement of new structures, civil work, determining available breakers, or installing a backup power system, we can make an appointment to meet you on-site, provide a tour, and answer any questions you may have.
We welcome conversations regarding tower site upgrades to meet your needs. Tower extensions, replacements, shelter modifications or upgrades are often a possibility. Talk to us about an accelerated upgrade to any site.
