Ultra-compact and fully integrated, Ericsson Street Radio Small Cells can be deployed worldwide by connecting to existing streetlights utilizing National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) standardized connectors. And it is almost invisible from road level. The device is installed directly above the streetlight shield and next to the streetlight itself, allowing it to blend into existing infrastructure. Eliminate long wires and large, bulky boxes for a true aesthetic enhancement. Also, installation is often completed within just 15 minutes, turning a street light into a low- or medium-band 5G site.
Streetlights are typically 8 to 10 meters high, 50 meters apart, have existing power sources, and are close to fiber, making them ideal deployment points to meet network infrastructure densification needs. There is also. The solution reduces costs by using existing infrastructure, streamlines site approvals and permits, and speeds installation. These radios are also equipped with smart sensors that can detect broken or fallen streetlights in the event of a storm, power outage, or other disruptive event. This helps quickly assess damage and dispatch crews for repairs or alert utility companies to problems.
on the horizon
How promising is this new solution? A street radio prototype was piloted last year and is currently undergoing field testing and deployment of commercial units in multiple cities. That means this unique solution is ready to help accelerate his 5G deployment across the country with America’s most reliable 5G network. AT&T 5G.1
One of the most fulfilling parts of my job is building access to areas where coverage is lacking. This unique, compact solution uses existing infrastructure and could help bring 5G to some underserved areas and further our commitment to bridging the digital divide. there is.
Although jointly developed for our network, this technology will be made available to other carriers in the future, bringing further benefits to the industry as a whole. This project was nominated by Global Mobile (GLOMO) Awards in Barcelona “The Best Mobile Network Infrastructure”
