Cellular Site Acquisition Services

Site Identification:

  • The process begins with identifying potential sites that meet the requirements for expanding or improving cellular network coverage and capacity.
  • Criteria for site selection include factors such as population density, geographic location, topography, zoning regulations, proximity to existing infrastructure, and RF (radio frequency) propagation characteristics.
  • Site identification may involve conducting site surveys, analyzing coverage maps, and collaborating with RF engineers and network planners to ensure optimal site selection.

Negotiation and Lease Agreement:

  • Once potential sites are identified, the next step involves negotiating lease agreements with property owners or landlords to secure the rights to install and operate cellular equipment on their premises.
  • Negotiations typically cover lease terms, rental fees, access rights, maintenance responsibilities, and any additional provisions related to site usage and modifications.
  • Legal and regulatory compliance, including obtaining necessary permits and approvals, is also addressed during the negotiation phase.

Site Surveys and Assessments:

  • Detailed site surveys and assessments are conducted to evaluate the suitability and feasibility of the identified sites for cellular equipment installation.
  • Surveys may include measurements of available space, structural integrity, power availability, access routes, environmental conditions, and potential sources of interference.
  • Engineering assessments are performed to determine the required infrastructure modifications, such as tower or mast construction, equipment mounting, and cabling requirements.

Permitting and Regulatory Compliance:

  • The site acquisition process involves obtaining necessary permits, licenses, and approvals from local authorities, regulatory bodies, and relevant stakeholders.
  • This includes compliance with zoning regulations, building codes, environmental impact assessments, and health and safety requirements.
  • Permitting and regulatory compliance ensure that the installation and operation of cellular equipment adhere to legal and regulatory standards, minimizing potential risks and ensuring a smooth deployment process.

Site Preparation and Deployment:

  • Once all necessary approvals and permits are obtained, the site preparation and deployment phase begins.
  • This involves coordinating with construction teams, equipment vendors, and network operators to ensure timely and efficient installation of cellular equipment.
  • Site preparation may include activities such as tower or mast construction, equipment installation, power and connectivity provisioning, and site testing to verify proper functionality and performance.

Ongoing Maintenance and Management:

  • After the successful deployment of cellular equipment, ongoing maintenance and management activities are carried out to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
  • This includes regular inspections, preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, and repairs to address any issues that may arise.
  • Site management also involves monitoring and optimizing the performance of cellular equipment, ensuring compliance with lease agreements, and maintaining good relationships with property owners or landlords.
