Swann Group Complete Initial 5G-Ready Tower Upgrade

Swann Group have completed the design, fabrication and installation of a 5G-ready tower reconfiguration and strengthening project on behalf of a major infrastructure operator in readiness for future technology. This included the retrofitting of new head and ring frames to an existing tower which enables safe installation and ongoing access to new 5G-ready antennas and remote radio technology.

Swann Engineers were responsible for the whole process including the site survey, structure analysis, scheme design, manufacture and installation with the design and manufacture work taking place in Braintree, Essex and the installation being carried out by our build team.

Mike Morris, Business Development Director at Swann, said “We are delighted to be a key partner in this project that future proofs structures for technology change over the coming years. Despite working to tight timescales, the team worked collaboratively to complete the upgrade scheme on time. Well done to our teams for their efforts to make this possible”.

We look forward to working closely with our Client over the coming months as the 5G project rolls out.
