EE announced in March 2022 that it had deployed 200 new 4G small cells across its UK network to boost capacity in high-demand areas, such as the financial heart of the UK's capital city. In the next stage of its roll-out strategy, the BT Group-owned mobile provider deployed more than 1,000 small cells across the UK in August 2024 . This included its first 5G-capable small cell sites and marked 400 new small cell deployments over the past 12 months.
The new installation will see dozens of additional sites for EE being built in the UK's principal financial district. The sites are said to be strategically located throughout the Square Mile, such as at landmarks outside St Paul's Cathedral, Cannon Street and the Bank of England on Threadneedle Street.
Freshwave's solution enables the new infrastructure to accommodate all four UK mobile network operators' 4G and 5G networks with no adjustments needed to make them work with the small cell technology. The technology solution features specially designed wideband antennas, cabinets and columns, with extensive dark fibre cable connectivity to each cabinet.
"We believe that multi-operator, shareable digital infrastructure is the future of mobile connectivity," commented Freshwave CEO Simon Frumkin. "Our unique approach allows the mobile network operators to enhance their networks where they need it most, with minimal disruption for the surrounding communities, and we're looking forward to continuing to expand the network."
