kiosks
Smart kiosks have begun appearing
on sidewalks in major cities
throughout the country. Far more
than interactive screens, these
freestanding stations offer helpful
information, internet access, device
charging, and access to emergency
services. While still in the early
phases, these kiosks are helping to
revitalize downtown areas and are
certain to play a foundational role
as more smart street infrastructure
is deployed.

Smart kiosks benefit more than the
people who directly interact with them.
Due to their location in high-traffic
areas, smart kiosks are an ideal place to
house environmental sensors, internet of
things transmitters, small cells, and other
exciting technologies—all powered by
high-speed fiber.
More than meets
the eye.
SMALL CELLS
Due to their central location
and fast network connections,
smart kiosks are an ideal place
to host the small cells that
dramatically boost the
coverage and capacity of
wireless networks in the area.
INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT)
By housing special environmental
sensors and IoT transmitters,
kiosks can help make cities
smarter, safer, and more efficient.
5G AND CBRS
The small cells that can be
discreetly housed in smart kiosks
play an important role in
providing the next generation of
wireless technology like 5G and
private LTE networks.
INTERACTIVE SCREENS
Smart maps, wayfinding apps,
and other public services
make neighborhoods safer
and more accessible.
