Micro Cell with 4 Panel Antennas and Remote Radio Heads w/Faux Chimney?

by Frank
(Stamford, CT, USA )

This all seems like a bigger deal than the $600 per month offer proposed for this installation considering the addition of an 8x8 enclosure on the ground to house the additional equipment. Location is in a burgeoning area in a extremely poorly serviced area by the telecoms. There are many new apartment buildings and new ones in the plans.
Any insight on the monthly number here???

Frank a four panel small cell or micro cell isn't really that small anymore.

I would tell them to take a hike at $600. The carrier whose name starts with V that we will not mention here is very CHEAP when it comes to paying rent on these small cells. We actually got a call from a midtown Manhattan landlord last week where V was offering them $7000/year for a micro cell. That same rooftop would easily be leased for $40,000/year for a regular 4G/LE 12 antenna macro cell site.

However since they are putting up 4 antennas on your rooftop you can tell them that it's double the equipment they regularly install for small cells. The typical installation is 1-2 antennas. I would tell them no less than $1200 and then show them the door. You don't even need to be polite.
