Telecom SheltersField Equipment Shelters for the Telecom Industry
Shelter Works engineered-to-order telecom shelters are the perfect solution for protecting critical field equipment.
Our shelters, manufactured with our exclusive FiberBeam™ Technology, are lightweight, insulated, weather-tight, durable, and secure. They are also backed by our industry-leading 25 year warranty.
Telecom shelters, or communication shelters, are specially designed structures that house critical telecommunications equipment and infrastructure. Shelter Works fiberglass buildings are RF transparent and perfectly suited to service a variety of different applications in the telecommunications industry.
Applications Include:
- Cellular
- Data Center
- Fiber-Optic PoP
- Microwave
- Broadcasting CATV
- Coastal / Offshore
- Alternative Energy / Solar
- Instrumentation / SCADA Systems
- Critical UPS
- Rooftops
- Remote Locations
- Radio Transmitter
- Public Safety Radio
- Transmitter
LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN
In many cases, telecom infrastructure needs to be deployed in hard-to-reach areas. Shelter Works telecom shelters are an ideal solution for applications that have weight restrictions, including roof-top installations, or where transportation costs can be cost prohibitive for heavier alternatives.
Shelter Works fiberglass telecom shelters are ultra-light weight yet offer superior flexural strength. Weighing 70% less than steel and 25% less than aluminum, our shelters with FiberBeam™ Technology are pound for pound stronger than steel.
RF TRANSPARENT
Shelter Works’ proprietary wall construction does not utilize metal framing therefore reducing radio frequency interference. Our prefabricated telecom buildings can be constructed to accommodate multiple frequencies to help maximize signal reach and reception. Insulating materials can be increased for higher R-values while not diminishing RF Transparency.
REMOTE LOCATIONS
Our telecom shelters are typically located in remote or environmentally challenging locations. They protect sensitive electronic equipment from the elements and other environmental threats.
Unlike other traditional building materials, fiberglass does not rust, corrode, or degrade over time, making it ideal for long-term use in challenging outdoor environments.
Telecom Shelters From Shelter Works
One of Shelter Works' greatest strengths is our ability to tailor our telecom shelters to meet the unique requirements of each project.
