A lot of office buildings have these in them. I think the personal ones are how they get around some of the issues with government requiring them to build networks to certain coverage. They just don't build it out and when someone complains they offer them one of these.

I think the personal ones are how they get around some of the issues with government requiring them to build networks to certain coverage. They just don't build it out and when someone complains they offer them one of these. Also because a lot of office and residential towers have people high above street level, and the buildings have radiation-minimizing windows so that no cell signal can penetrate. The cell companies put their sites 30 feet above the street, not 600+ feet up.
