A nationwide large wireless carrier in North America is rolling out thousands of 5G remote outdoor cell sites enclosed in cabinets and shrouds to differentiate in the marketplace and support their mobile customer’s ongoing service needs.

Challenge

This wireless carrier was experiencing battery and equipment theft at many sites throughout the country that caused significant damage, network downtime, and monetary losses. Site access history around the time of the theft was unknown.

Solution

The wireless carrier implemented the SES cabinet solutions for new and existing cabinet sites consisting of an internal door blocking solution for new cabinets and an external pucklock solution for existing sites.

Result

The wireless carrier experienced no theft in the sites protected by SES. As a result of this robust cabinet security solution, the wireless carrier eliminated the financial loss of a magnitude of tens of millions of dollars and improved network up-time.
