As cellular usage and data consumption continue to increase at exponential rates, mobile network operators must invest in densifying their networks.

Upgrades to mobile networks improve the constituent and visitor experience and help cities operate more efficiently and effectively. However, additional wireless infrastructure can clutter streetscapes and impact aesthetics. Managing relationships with multiple operators also increases the workload for city departments.

American Tower Smart Street Poles provide an aesthetically pleasing small cell solution that blends seamlessly into the existing streetscape and hides wireless equipment and antennas from view. Replacing traditional streetlights with Smart Street Poles opens the door to using existing rights-of-way locations to provide operators with shared infrastructure opportunities.

Significantly reduce the time and effort required to negotiate multiple wireless permits and manage infrastructure projects, so you can reallocate these city resources to other priority projects.

ATC Nigeria specializes in shared infrastructure leasing arrangements and efficient deployments, and we have longstanding relationships with all major mobile operators. We also have the project management expertise needed to quickly install large numbers of smart poles, with minimal disruptions to pedestrian and vehicle traffic.

Go beyond smart poles to develop a holistic, multi-tier urban wireless strategy that enhances coverage where stakeholders live and work:

• Use rooftop sites to further densify wireless networks
• Add indoor and outdoor Distributed Antenna System (DAS) solutions to improve coverage in areas with high demand, but weak signal propagation
