JSCMechTech Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I took a few pictures of two towers side by side near my work that i see every morning when I stop at the Valero, I believe the tower with the single set of panels is owned by T-Mobile and the tower with way to much stuff on it is owned by Clearwire. I believe what im looking at is T-Mobiles 4g HSPA+ Panels on the single tower. On the other tower Im completely lost. My question is one of these towers is slated to recieve LTE, My question is what should i look for when they start with the upgrades ? Also this tower is * for those who have access to the maps.

jefbal99 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 The bottom set of panels look to be Clear Wimax. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSCMechTech Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 The bottom set of panels look to be Clear Wimax. I was under the impression that the higher the frequency the larger the panel ? If not, i stand corrected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ lol, looks pretty messes eh ? Im assuming the Red Lighting bolt drum thing is a Microwave backhaul ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiWavelength Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I was under the impression that the higher the frequency the larger the panel ? If not, i stand corrected. Just the opposite. The lower the frequency, the longer the wavelength, the larger the panel. AJ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynyrd65 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I was under the impression that the higher the frequency the larger the panel ? If not, i stand corrected. The opposite is generally true but not always. The reason is that wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency.

AJ Roger that, I donno why when i was viewing this video on SBASite.com i thought it was the other way around. Incase anybody novice wants to check it out, its a very nice overview video of how a Site is managed with alittle technical info as well. http://ir.sbasite.com/# 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deval Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'm curious to see how they will fit the NV panels on that site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digiblur Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'm curious to see how they will fit the NV panels on that site. Simple. Slap another pole on the mount. RRU goes behind the wall. Rock and roll to the next. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefbal99 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 ^ ATT. Why would you think that? There are only 4 outputs on the bottom of the panel with a single RRU, that screams AT&T from all of the pictures in the how to spot a panel thread. I thought the Sprint NV panels had 6 outputs and 3 RRUs per sector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
