What is a “Small Cell”?
There is not a universal definition of “small cell”
- 1. A small cell is a single, low power, optically fed unit (often part of a bigger
network) designed to augment macro coverage and provide capacity relief in densely populated areas.
- 2. Small cells are generally placed on existing structures in the Public Right-of-
Way.
- 3. In underground districts (new) stand alone poles are needed
- 4. Existing wooden power poles are the fastest and most desirable method to
deploy small cell networks – lowest impact to neighborhoods. Street lamps
- ffer clean alternatives to power poles
- 5. Power and Fiber are as much a part of the network as radios and antennas
- 6. Before Small Cell Networks can be developed, Right of Way agreements and
Pole Attachment Agreements are needed
