Twitter-Chat-4-compDensification is a term often heard in the wireless industry these days. It refers to adding more capacity in the network, usually by adding more cell sites or site sectors. Wireless operators have embraced the need for densification in order to support mobile data use now and in the future. But there are still plenty of questions about how to densify.

CommScope is here to help, and we’re offering that help via Twitter. CommScope will host a Twitter Chat on Wednesday, October 4, from 11:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m. Eastern. We will have a number of wireless network experts online at the same time to answer questions about densifying outdoor wireless networks. Some of the topics they will cover are:
