Together Against Dead Zones

We offer turnkey, customized system solutions to combat network dead zones. We identify all necessary stages of your project – covering legal, planning, construction, functionality, sustainability, and innovation – tailored to your specific needs. As an experienced turnkey provider, we implement them reliably and on schedule.

Our Turnkey Solutions

There are still numerous white spots in Germany – these are the network dead zones across the country.

At FUCHS Europoles, headquartered in Neumarkt, along with several of our branches focused on mobile communications, closing these gaps is our daily mission. With our sustainable and resource-efficient turnkey solutions, we support the expansion of mobile networks for various providers.

The German government also recognizes its responsibility in this area. With the establishment of the Mobile Infrastructure Company (MIG) in 2021, it underscored its commitment to improving coverage and is supporting mobile network expansion in structurally weak regions through MIG.

We documented the installation process on camera to provide you with exciting insights.

New Mobile Network Sites

We built the first MIG-funded mast in Lind, Rhineland-Palatinate – a 40-meter-high spun concrete mast. We provide the full package: from site inspection and planning to production and installation. The mast is designed to accommodate antennas from all mobile network operators. It covers a previously unserved area of approximately 190 hectares with 4G/LTE service and additionally provides mobile coverage to around 50 households and a nearby road.

Our team proved its ability to deliver outstanding results even under extreme weather conditions when installing Germany’s northernmost mobile network mast. In the municipality of List on Sylt, we erected a two-part mast in Wind Zone 4 – the highest wind load category.

In Lower Saxony, specifically in the Lüneburg Heath, we closed another network gap. Right next to the high-speed rail route between Hamburg and Hanover, we installed a 90-meter-high, 178-ton antenna tower, ensuring both mobile reception and digital radio broadcasting.

With our hybrid FUCHS system mast, we offer an efficient solution for rapidly establishing new mobile network sites, driving forward the mobility of the future.
