CN Tower Toronto - Case Study

The tallest freestanding structure in North America

Toronto's CN Tower is the tallest freestanding structure in North America, and since 1976, it has played a key role in the city's telecommunications infrastructure while offering visitors a superb view from two observation decks. CN Tower is a long-term client and partner of Mobile Business Communications (MBC), a Toronto dealer. MBC has installed NEXEDGE equipment to provide digital trunked communications within the tower itself, and also to serve as MBC's core operating site for its entire southern Ontario network.

This unique structure poses special challenges for a radio system. According to Kerry Adams, President of MBC, ensuring that a solid signal propagated throughout the facility, providing excellent voice clarity and a static-free communications environment, was an important factor in the selection of NEXEDGE to replace the previous analogue LTR trunked system.
