Outdoor DAS Small Cells in historical city of Italy, Erice

Erice is one of the many beautiful intact villages in Italy; it was an ancient Phoenician and Greek city, and is situated at an altitude of 751 m, on a mountain crowned by a triangular-shaped plateau with a terrace overlooking the sea. Its historic centre is a labyrinth of cobbled. The  municipal  administration  of  Erice  has  long been committed to winning the great challenge  of  overcoming  any  outstanding  issues regarding the territorial digital divide. On  the  other  hand,  the  administration’s  philosophy  is  to  combine  the  need  for modernity  and  respect  for  the  historical  heritage,  in  order  to  render  a  service  not  only to their inhabitants but also to tourists, always very numerous, and especially in the summer.  In  these  periods  of  the  year,  the  historic centre of Erice is therefore subject to the influx of many tourists who, when visiting   this   wonderful   medieval   town,   expect full network coverage that supports the   use   of   their   smartphones   without   bandwidth shortages. Its position on top of a  mountain  reduces,  if  not  eliminates,  the  signal  coming  from  the  macro  sites  of  the  operators  reaching  the  internal  streets  of  the centre.
