How do we attach antennas the smart way?
Read more: How do we attach antennas the smart way?Attaching antennas to a telecommunication mast in a smart way involves utilizing the most robust points in the structure, known as nodes. Here’s how to do it effectively: Identify Nodes: Nodes are the locations where cross members meet on the corner pipe of the mast. These points are inherently strong and are designed to withstand…
-
Why do I need separation crown?
Read more: Why do I need separation crown?The separation crown serves two primary functions, both of which are crucial for the optimal operation and structural integrity of telecommunication masts: Antenna Separation: One of the main reasons for using a separation crown is to appropriately separate antennas from each other according to the producer’s specifications. Antennas emit electromagnetic radiation, including backward radiation, which…
-

Is mast stiffness important for me? What should I expect?
Read more: Is mast stiffness important for me? What should I expect?Mast stiffness is indeed an important factor to consider, especially for certain applications such as radiolink communication and satellite dishes. Here’s what you should expect regarding mast stiffness: Importance of Stiffness: In most cases, a stiff mast is considered a good quality mast. Stiffness is crucial for applications like radiolink communication and satellite dishes, where…
-
How do we choose right height of the mast for radiolink?
Read more: How do we choose right height of the mast for radiolink?Choosing the right height for radiolink antenna masts in telecommunications involves considering the concept of Fresnel Zones. Here’s how it works: By carefully considering Fresnel Zones and choosing appropriate mast heights, telecommunications professionals can optimize radiolink performance and ensure reliable communication over long distances.

What information matter when we brief you Altruss to make mast for us?
Read more: What information matter when we brief you Altruss to make mast for us?When briefing Altruss to make a mast, the key information required includes: Location: The precise location where the mast will be installed is crucial. Factors such as the terrain, local weather conditions, and any potential obstructions in the surrounding area need to be considered to ensure the mast is appropriately designed for its environment. Primarily…
-
Are welded constructions any better than bolted?
Read more: Are welded constructions any better than bolted?Welded and bolted constructions each have their own advantages and considerations, especially in the context of communication towers: Transportation: Welded constructions, particularly for larger towers, can pose challenges in transportation due to their size. For example, Altruss H32 towers have sizable base dimensions (4,5×4.5 meters wide and 6 meters long), making transportation on highways impossible.…
-
What do I choose? Tower or mast?
Read more: What do I choose? Tower or mast?Choosing between a tower and a mast depends on various factors, including comfort of use, space requirements, economy, and environmental considerations: Space Requirements: Towers generally require more space for installation compared to masts of the same height.
