Manx Telecom 3G/4G Microcells on Douglas Promenade

The Microcells are small antennas, mounted to lamp posts, along Douglas promenade. Two lamp posts have microcells to provide localised 3G/4G capacity to the area. 3G is 2100MHz and 4G 1800MHz.

Microcells tend to be two sector. Antennas are Kathrein and it is possible to see that they have an O2 label on them which is likely due to BT

and O2 starting cellular rollout in the the country.
