South Wireless Summit discusses carrier activity, market opportunity
The fourth annual South Wireless Summit took place this week in Nashville, Tenn. The event, hosted by the South Wireless Summit Association, focuses on educating members of the wireless community. This year there was a heavy focus on the tower market, but there was still plenty of time for enjoying a bowling tournament and clay shooting, as well.
Watch as the CEO of Global Tower Partners, Marc Ganzi, gives a keynote address about what’s next for wireless infrastructure.
A panel of tower experts talked about carrier activity, tower market opportunity, small cell and more.
RCR Wireless News also took the time to talk with Ehresmann Engineering about its monopole tie-off point and how it is working with NATE to help make them the standard for all monopoles.
Also, Cell Blocks explained how its precast post-tensioned tower foundation system differs from other  tower foundation processes.
