BAI Communications is beefing up growth in North America, announcing plans to acquire U.S. neutral host provider Mobilitie.
Mobilitie is the largest privately held neutral host infrastructure provider in the U.S., with a portfolio that includes networks at 220 venues, 10,000 small cells and 300 tower sites. It helps provide connectivity through indoor and outdoor neutral host distributed antenna systems (DAS), small cells, and Wi-Fi networks.
Transit is of particular interest as BAI looks to capitalize on smart city infrastructure opportunities from 5G services. Headquartered in Australia, BAI is the infrastructure host for cellular and Wi-Fi in major subway systems around the world, including Toronto and Hong Kong, as well as New York City where it holds a majority stake in Transit Wireless.
