Integrate your antenna into towers and
structures already on the ground and in
operation. Wireless service providers have
access to AEP’s 275,000 existing transmission
and communication towers in 11 states –
Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky,
Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Arkansas, Louisiana,
Oklahoma, Texas.
With collocation you can minimize community
impact, soften local opposition and eliminate
wasteful duplication of facilities. AEP
is established in hundreds of communities,
has established credibility with local and
regional zoning and planning bodies and
can streamline the permitting process, shorten
construction time and get new sites in operation
sooner. Collocation is a cost-effective
alternative to stand-alone tower construction.
AEP offers turnkey service to design, construct
and maintain your facility. AEP has many
years of experience in the planning, engineering,
construction and maintenance of its own
internal microwave, fiber optic and radio
communication system. Because AEP properties
are often located near utility towers, the
zoning approval process can be streamlined.
