From Top, AT&T with Air 6419 & 6449 and couple rru32s and radio 44xx, a decommissioned carrier older than you, Verizon with MT6407-77A and couple Vectastar CBNG CBGNHB2X2M2B that i have no idea what for and then T-Mobile with 3 Passives (2 on the left and one on far right for right side sector), Nokia Aehc for n41, Nokia AEQU for N77 3.45 which is offline because they sold their 3.45 holdings to a holding company and Nokia AEQK N77 3.8ghz which is also offline (even tho they still own the spectrum for it) because T-mobile is ran by idiots :)

Looks like everyone except dish is here.Location is 37.34807° N, 85.34535° W. Good, solid speeds from VZW.

Verizon just co-located on this 105 feet tall Skyway Tower site within the past month! From what I can tell, they decided to implement a 4-sector rack configuration that's very interesting because they want to provide more capacity, coverage in all 4-directions (ALPHA, BETA, GAMMA, DELTA) sectors. This site should help reduce the network congestion Verizon has been experiencing a lot lately in the area, especially when there are a lot of houses nearby where their network can get heavy overloaded, congested since they have a decent amount of marketshare in Fulshear. Hopefully, T-Mobile will co-locate on this tower next year because they struggle a lot around the residential neighborhoods nearby with 1-2 bars of 5GUC pulling less than 100 mbps, with medicore 2-6 mbps uplink! Interesting enough, this Verizon site did not get the brand new Samsung MT-6433-77A [480W] antenna because Verizon planned this new site build all the way back in January 2025 so it is using the older Gen 2 Samsung MT-6413-77A - 64T64R (320W) 3.7GHz n77 antennas mid-band 5GUW @ 160MHz. The other existing Verizon site nearby actually has a high-capacity set-up with MatSing antennas and Samsung MT-6407-77A (200W) antennas for (n77) on the tall Crown Castle Tower site that also has AT&T, T-Mobile present.

Equipment Verizon is using:

• 8️⃣ CommScope NHH-45C-R2B antennas TOTAL with bands: (2, 13, 66) LTE + (n5) - 10MHz low-band 5G
• 2️⃣ CommScope NHH-45C-R2B antennas per sector located in the MIDDLE of the rack
• 4️⃣ Samsung MT-6413-77A (320W) 64T64R [Gen 2] antennas for [3.7GHz] c-band set at 160MHz [Fort Bend County, TX] located on the LEFT side
• Ray-cap RCMDC-6627-PF-48 used for power surge protection located behind their antennas

Samsung (RRU's) - remote radio units behind the antennas:

• 4️⃣ RF4461d-13A - (b13) 700MHz LTE + (N5) 850MHz-CLR low-band 5G
• 4️⃣ RF4801D-25A - (b2) 1900MHz-PCS + (b66) 2100MHz-AWS LTE

Google Street View to the neighboring Crown Castle site (OUTDATED) --> December 2024 -- shows older AT&T, Verizon equipment before it was upgraded with Matsing antennas, mid-band 5G for AT&T.

I was walking around UTA until I stumbled upon this 125 feet monopole tower that has Verizon equipment on it! From what I can tell, Verizon co-located on this tower when it was built all the way back in October 2024! This new Verizon site is a re-location from their old site that was across the street on top of Maverick Stadium (C.R. Gilstrap Athletic Center) on the roof-top of the MEDIA/Press box because the landlord raised rent, and Verizon didn't want to renew the lease! Instead, what you're seeing here is the new Verizon site that was added after the old site was decomissioned last year (2025). From what I can tell, this site may look like it doesn't have (b48) CBRS, but it actually does have CBRS passive mimo on (b48) LTE + (n48) mid-band 5G via. 3 CommScope NHHSS-65C-R2BT4 antennas in the MIDDLE of their rack!

Equipment being using:

• 3️⃣ CommScope NHH-65C-R2B antennas TOTAL with bands: (13, 66) LTE + (n2) ePCS @ 15MHz + (n66) eAWS @ 10MHz for mid-band 5G
• 1️⃣ CommScope NHH-65C-R2B antennas per sector located in the MIDDLE
• 3️⃣ CommScope NHHSS-65C-R2BT4 antennas with bands: (13, 48 [CBRS], 66) LTE + 15MHz + (n48) CBRS + (n66) eAWS @ 10MHz for mid-band 5G
• 1️⃣ CommScope NHHSS-65C-R2BT4 antennas per sector located in the MIDDLE
• 3️⃣ Samsung MT-6413-77A - 64T64R (320W) 3.7GHz n77 antennas mid-band 5GUW @ 140MHz located on the RIGHT side
• Ray-cap RCMDC-6627-PF-48 used for power surge protection located behind their antennas

Samsung (RRU's) - remote radio units behind the CommScope antennas:

• 3️⃣ RF4461d-13A - (b13) 700MHz LTE
• 3️⃣ RF4439-25A - (b66) 2100MHz-AWS LTE + (n2) ePCS + (n66) eAWS for mid-band 5G
• 3️⃣ RT-4423 (b48) LTE + (n48) mid-band 5G CBRS square antennas located on the LEFT side of the rack behind the RODs

So my friend recently visited the Austin, TX region and stumbled upon an brand new AT&T site co-location on this monopole below the T-Mobile rack. Really interesting that they went with a 4-sector rack deployment instead of the 3-sector sites that is more common in Dallas, San Antonio, El Paso, and rest of the country! It's good to see AT&T improving their network in Austin, when it wasn't their strongest market in the past because their towers were pretty spaced out in this area compared to T-Mobile. From what I know, the closest AT&T site was 0.6 miles away located at 2315 1/2 E Anderson Ln, Austin, TX 78752 and that site doesn't have good range since the RSRP would be over -100 near this spot! AT&T has been aggressively densifying their network in Austin, they have added like 10+ new sites in this region within the past year! T-Mobile + Verizon also have been adding new sites in Round Rock, Leander, Cedar Park, Georgetown in the suburbs! This new AT&T rack does not (b30) 2300MHz-WCS deployed because it doesn't have good range + it's not really helpful anymore when they have a more refined/optimized 5G Standalone network now. T-Mobile has like the most macro sites in Austin, TX thanks to them having decent marketshare, roughly over 40% and the Sprint merger that helped them convert like 85% of the Sprint keep sites all the way back in 2020-2024! Hence, T-Mobile actually has a lot of (b2, b66) LTE + (n41) small cells deployed throughout the Austin metro area while Verizon + AT&T have majority of their small cells congregated around downtown Austin, The Domain, outer suburbs! Verizon has been upgrading many small cells in Austin with n77 (3.7GHz) c-band via. Samsung MT-1602D (16T16R) antennas.

Equipment AT&T [bottom] rack is using:

• 8️⃣ CCI TPA45R-BU6B antennas with bands: (2, 5, 12, 14, 66) LTE + (n5) - 15MHz for low-band 5G
• 4️⃣ Ericsson AIR. 6472 (B77G/B77M) 64T64R antennas that can do (3.7GHz) c-band @ 80mhz + (3.45GHz) DoD - 60MHz located in the MIDDLE of the rack
• Raycap DC9-48-60-24-PC1t-EV for power surge protection for the for the antennas, remote radio units

Ericsson Remote Radio UNITS can be spotted BEHIND the antennas:

• 4️⃣ RRU 4490HP (b5) 850MHz, (b12) 700MHz LTE + (n5) 850MHz low-band 5GNR
• 4️⃣ RRU 4494 (b14) 700MHz LTE
• 4️⃣ RRU 4890HP (b2) 1900MHz-PCS + (b66) 2100MHz-AWS LTE

T-Mobile [eNB 61811] + [eNB 79496] LTE + [gNB 1579800] n25, n41, n71 (top) rack:

• 3️⃣ CommScope FFVV-65C-R3 antennas with bands: (2, 12, 66, 71) LTE + (n25 + n71) 5G located in the (MIDDLE)  of the rack
• 3️⃣ NOKIA AirScale AAFIA mMIMO antennas with bands; (2, 66) LTE + (n25, *n66*) mid-band 5GUC! Radio is INTEGRATED INSIDE THE ANTENNA! Located on the (LEFT) side of the rack
• 3️⃣ NOKIA AirScale AEHC - (N41) 2.5GHz [320W] antennas for mid-band 5GUC located on the (RIGHT) side of the rack

Nokia (RRU's) - remote radio units behind the antennas:

• 3️⃣ AirScale AHLOA - (b12) 700MHz + (b71) 600MHz LTE + (n71) low-band 5G

Downtown Naples tower, what gear is being used? Using iPhone 18 pro on VZW, mostly on 5G, no UWB, data works pretty decent.

Saw this Verizon node and decided to do a few tests. I was not expecting to see both mmWave and N77 small cell panels. I think that I likely connected to n77, rather than mmWave, as the upload was mediocre.

There is literally a mmWave node outside the stadium gates. Literally is. Verizon has mmWave all over the athletic areas here. Good stuff to see.
