For the first time, AT&T is selling small, portable cellular antennas that will allow corporate and government customers to provide their own wireless coverage in remote or disaster-struck areas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Usually, cellphone companies have to restore service after disasters like hurricanes by sending in their own trucks that act like mobile cell towers. But AT&T’s new product would let first responders such as police and emergency workers immediately control where they have coverage.<\/p>\n
One of AT&T’s options is a unit that packs into a suitcase, with a satellite dish carried separately. The Remote Mobility Zone can handle 14 simultaneous calls, and data at less-than-broadband speeds.
\nThe cost of the units will range from $15,000 to $45,000, AT&T said Monday, plus some monthly fees.<\/p>\n
Like other carriers, AT&T also sells “femtocells,” even smaller cellular antennas that users can place indoors. <\/p>\n
