And let\u2019s not forget Internet of Things (IoT). IoT can only scale up to the massive scale required if cheap, reliable power is available on demand. In networks, much like real estate, the key is location, location, location. When planning for new network capacity, whether retrofits, acquisitions, or greenfield builds, location of cell towers is absolutely essential.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Location and types of towers go hand-in-hand.<\/p>\n<h2>Different Types of Towers in Telecom<\/h2>\n<p>There are two main types of towers for supporting antennas for mobile communication antenna: self-support towers and guyed masts.<\/p>\n<h3>Self-Supporting Towers<\/h3>\n<p>Self-supporting towers offer the most possibilities compared to other types of\u00a0telecom towers and are considered appropriate for nearly all wireless communication applications. These towers are freestanding structures and are available in different designs such as the 3-legged triangular and 4-legged square lattice-type structures. Their designs are ideal for cellular towers, wireless internet towers, broadcast towers, radio towers, and more.<\/p>\n<h3>Guyed Masts<\/h3>\n<p>Guyed towers are some of the most economical telecom towers. They can often be seen as slender steel structures and generally don\u2019t require a huge foundation which can save a business on costs. Commonly seen in the tower industry, guyed towers are designed to provide maximum strength, efficiency and versatility with easy installation. They are optimized and preferred for cellular sites, supported by guy wires and designed with the ability to carry light to heavy antenna loads.<\/p>\n<h2>Tower Designs<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s important to take into consideration a few factors when choosing which telecom tower will best suit your project such as design, tower height, location, environment and weight. In our recent post, \u201c<a title=\"Different Types of Telecom Towers: Which Design Is Right For Your Site?\" href=\"articles\/different-types-telecom-towers-design-right-site\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Different Types of Telecom Towers: Which Design is Right for Your Site?<\/a>,\u201d we detailed out the differences between lattice towers, guyed towers, monopole towers, camouflage towers, self-support towers and mobile cell towers.<\/p>\n<h2>Lexodant Solar TechnologyTower Crews<\/h2>\n<p>Lexodant Solar Technologyis a leading provider of <a title=\"Tower Modifications\" href=\"services\/telecommunications\/telecom-design-build\/tower-modifications-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Design &amp; Build tower modifications and reinforcement services<\/a>.
