Viettel rolled out 1,000 towers and a fibre transmission network in Mozambique in just 10 months. The keys to rapid deployment were cash flow, support and planning, and the use of fast deployment guy-mast towers with prefabricated concrete anchor blocks; much faster to install than traditional towers relying on substantial reinforced concrete foundations. To learn more, TowerXchange spoke to Viettel’s project managers VNTower, who have also deployed or upgraded nearly 2,000 sites in Asia.
TowerXchange: Thanks for speaking to us today. Where do VNTower fit into the passive infrastructure ecosystem?
