AT&T’s "Fly Away" Remote Mobility Zone–a VERY Mobile Cell Tower

Apr 26

AT&T has started selling portable cellular antennas so customers can provide their own wireless coverage in disaster-struck or remote areas. Typically cell phone companies deploy mobile trucks with larger mobile cell towers, but this gives responders control over their own deployments – albeit with fairly limited service:

The Remote Mobility Zone can handle 14 simultaneous calls, and data at less-than-broadband speeds. Coverage extends up to half a mile from the unit. The "portable cell tower" can also be mounted in a car or truck.

ARMZThe Remote Mobility Zone's satellite dish provides an alternative form of backhaul. AT&T also sells satellite smartphones . Any AT&T phone can access the $15,000 to $45,000 Remote Mobility Zone – with additional monthly service fees.
