Chancellor Dials Up a Welcome Call to Microwave Installers

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) November 16, 2011 -- With the Government looking to provide a boost to infrastructure spending in a bid to revive UK economic activity, as many as 6 million individuals and businesses in rural areas will welcome the latest announcement that some £150 million is going to be directed towards improving poor or non-existent mobile reception in sparsely populated regions of the country.

This sum will help cover the cost of building the masts and other necessary equipment which otherwise would be a totally uneconomic proposition if left to the mobile network operators to finance on their own. Bringing 5 bar mobile reception to thinly populated areas of the country may contribute to the economic productivity of the nation as a whole but it doesn’t make financial sense for the mobile service providers who have to recoup the capital expense from a relatively small number of subscribers.

The news couldn’t have been better for the UK’s leading installers of microwave radio links such as Marlow based MLL Telecom. This form of backhaul link which connects a remote area with the main network is undoubtedly going to be the most likely choice for mobile operators since deploying fixed lines in remote areas is normally either too expensive or physically too difficult.

MLL Telecom is a fully licensed operator with code system powers, which grant it the planning permissions it needs to enable rapid wireless circuit deployments. It owns wireless spectrum across the UK at 32GHz and 40GHz, which offers customers interference-free point-to-point wireless services. Because it owns the spectrum, it doesn’t have to get allocation from Ofcom, so it can work quickly to deploy lower cost wireless services where they're needed.
The company has built links for a host of major service providers such as BT and Vodafone and is one of a handful of UK microwave specialists who are ideally placed to capitalise on the Chancellor’s latest initiative.
