The challenge for wireless network operators is considerable \u2014 how to get tens of thousands of outdoor small cell sites, also called metro cells, approved by local governments. At CommScope, we think flexibility is the key to getting a metro cell site zoned and integrated into the network. We offer many types of configurable, flexible Metro Cell Concealment Solutions that give operators the options they need to meet local zoning requirements. And we have recently expanded our metro cell portfolio options.<\/p>\n
WATCH VIDEO: Metro Cell Concealment Solutions<\/a><\/p>\n Our Metro Cell Concealment Solutions include options for discretely housing radio frequency (RF) equipment at the bottom, middle or top of poles, while still meeting the equipment\u2019s thermal requirements. All CommScope metro cell products can be purchased as individual components or fully kitted with the complete CommScope wireless solutions portfolio.<\/p>\n Metro cells are commonly placed in highly visible, heavily trafficked areas, such as city streets, outside of buildings and other public areas. Operators need options for meeting the visual requirements of local jurisdictions \u2014 this is not a \u2018one solution fits all\u2019 kind of market. Our long history in developing RF path solutions, the breadth of our wireless portfolio, plus our unique capabilities in managing heat dissipation are what differentiate CommScope.<\/p>\n CommScope designs all its Metro Cell Concealment Solutions to blend into the urban landscape. All CommScope metro cell solutions are thermally tested to rigorous, industry standards and are uniquely engineered to effectively remove excess heat and maintain temperatures within the operating specifications of the radio.<\/p>\n http:\/\/view.ceros.com\/commscope-inc\/metro-cell-quiz\/p\/1<\/a><\/p>\n CommScope believes it is one of the only vendors able to provide complete, pre-assembled metro cell solutions to improve the quality and speed of deployment. CommScope\u2019s metro cells can integrate nearly any OEM radio. The company\u2019s wireless portfolio also includes solutions for cell sites on rooftops, billboards or the side of buildings.<\/p>\n We have helped a number of US and European operators deploy metro cells already, and we look forward to helping this robust segment of the wireless industry continue to grow.
