Micro's (SLMs)
We act for Vodafone, one of the 5 mobile operators, in the estate management of their Street Level Microcell estate throughout the south of the country.
Street Level Microcell’s or SLM’s are deployed in built up urban areas to improve and maintain mobile telecommunication coverage and capacity in areas where macrocell base stations may require support to maintain network strength. Microcells consist of an internal equipment cabinet and a single low powered antennae similar in size to a burgler alarm, mounted on the frontage of a building at three to four metres above street level.
Main tasks performed by Sitec in the management of the Microcell Estate as follows;
-
Negotiation of new licences with improved terms and possible rent reduction for our clients
-
Negotiating and reporting on Notices to quit received by the customers estates department and the following counter notices.
-
