Social media and chat platforms facilitate our connections to family and friends. New innovations in music and video streaming, as well as wearables and augmented reality technologies, have changed how and where we expect to be entertained. And of course technology plays an ever-greater role in how we do business and stay safe. 01 bar our infrastructure A nationwide network of infrastructure. The connective thread in all these transformative technologies is our nationwide network of infrastructure. We work out of offices in every major US market to make sure communities like yours have the right mix of towers, small cells, and fiber to stay connected to what matters most. We involve your local community and government leaders in every step of the process—ensuring that your unique needs are met, and that you can continue to live life the way you’ve come to expect for many years to come. 02 bar why it matters Our infrastructure brings important benefits to your community. Increased safety. When there’s an emergency, the closest, most convenient phone is almost always a mobile device. So it’s no surprise that 80% of 911 calls are made wirelessly. And once that call is placed, police officers, firefighters, and other emergency personnel need a secure, dedicated wireless broadband network to coordinate with one another and get the information they need to respond quickly and appropriately. But safety isn’t just about 911. It’s the peace of mind of knowing that a child or loved one can reach you when they need you. It’s getting a flat tire and being able to get through to roadside assistance on the first try. With improved communications infrastructure, you can rest easy knowing that you’ll always be a tap or a screen away from the things that matter most. More reliable connections. Whether you’re tracking your morning run, catching up on office email, or pulling up a video clip from last night’s game on your phone, you want your technology to work. When calls drop, or data doesn’t load, those are missed moments you may never get back. Solving this problem requires more than just wireless coverage. With today’s data-hungry apps and wireless devices, it’s also important to have enough capacity. While towers and other existing communications infrastructure often provide adequate coverage, more targeted, fiber-connected small cells minimize dead zones, and create enough capacity to handle today’s increased data usage. Ready for the future. The introduction of 5G is ushering in many promising new developments. Smart devices and wearables are changing our relationship to technology. Self-driving cars have the potential to make roads safer and cities less congested. And smart city technologies will bring new efficiencies and innovations to communities around the country. These advancements come with lots of promise, but will your community be able to support them? Even if your wireless service seems fine today, new infrastructure will be required to bring you these new opportunities. That’s why we’re installing small cells in communities around the country. These fiber-fed networks are capable of handling massive amounts of data, and will be a crucial component of many new technologies your community will depend on. Learn more about 5G. 03 bar small cells Small cells are expanding coverage and increasing capacity. Have you ever looked at your phone to see full bars, yet you’re unable to make a call, load a web page, or stream a video? This happens when you have adequate wireless coverage, but not enough wireless capacity. A single cell tower can cover a large geographic area, but it can only handle a finite number of simultaneous connections. Small cells solve this problem by targeting specific, smaller geographic areas where they can boost speed and fill in gaps where additional coverage or capacity are needed. Because small cell nodes are connected by fiber the network has nearly limitless bandwidth—giving you the faster, more reliable connections your community needs.

Due to their small size and lower profile, small cells are often attached to existing structures like streetlights or utility poles. This helps them blend in with their surroundings and preserve the aesthetics of your community. Watch our small cell video and see how we work closely with communities to find the right solution.
