Telecom Round Wood Poles
Telecom round wood poles deliver a cost-effective alternative to steel structures.
Bell’s round wood poles offer the telecom industry a cost-effective, easy-to-install alternative to steel structures.
Case in point: Crown Castle faced a tight deadline and limited budget for a 5G installation on a challenging industrial site in Seattle.
According to the installation contractor, Hector Castellon of Herca Telecomm Services, “A steel structure would have cost more than twice as much and taken over a year for design, engineering, permitting, manufacturing and installation.”
Instead, Bell stepped in with a smarter solution: a 100-foot Douglas fir H-6 Class round wood pole, CuNap treated and installed with 80 feet above ground—perfectly suited to support the 5G cell antenna at its peak.
Timing was critical to avoid extra crane rental costs, and Bell delivered right on schedule.
From initial inquiry to installation, the project wrapped up in just two months. The result? A happy customer with plans to use Bell round wood poles for future telecom structures.
