Managing wireless and wireline telecom networks involves monitoring and interpreting a lot of data from thousands of sites and dozens of data points at each of those sites.
Network managers need to know the status of their sites at all times, especially when power outages or equipment failures occur. They rely on detailed site data to make informed decisions for appropriate corrective actions or to dispatch field technicians.
Jon Baars, Director-Sales & Marketing at Asentria discusses with John Celentano, Inside Towers Business Editor, the business of site monitoring and how capturing and displaying large volumes of information helps to manage networks efficiently and cost-effectively.

With a high level of 5G and fiber deployments underway, teams of field technicians are needed to do the installation and testing. This activity requires a workforce of trained and skilled technicians that the wireless carriers, their equipment suppliers, and tower companies typically contract to do the work. Workers often are in the field for days at a time and may have to travel to where the work is needed.
FordCom Wireless is a field services organization with a specific strategy in what it offers and where it operates. FordCom’s CEO Brian Ford and John Celentano, Inside Towers Business Editor discuss what makes FordCom unique in the infrastructure business and how the company develops its field force.
#130 - Navigating the Municipal Zoning and Permitting Process
Tower Talks with Inside Towers
05/30/22 • 25 min
Wireless carriers are in high gear with their 5G deployments at towers, small cells, and distributed antenna systems. Physical construction of these sites only comes after carriers are granted zoning licenses and permits from the local jurisdictions that must review and approve carrier applications for site location and design. That process must follow FCC rules for the timing of these approvals but the municipalities, and their citizens, want a greater say in what sites are proposed and where they will be located.
John Celentano, Inside Towers Business Editor discusses telecommunications land use requirements and some of the challenges in meeting them with Greg Rapisarda, Partner at Saul Ewing Arnstein & Lehr and Chair of the law firm’s Telecommunications practice, and a board member of the Maryland-DC Wireless Association.
