A Typical “Small Cell” Tower

These installations often look innocuous, but don’t be fooled by the pedestrian appearance. Old telephone poles are usually replaced with new structures, including both the overhead cell unit, generating a lot of heat to power the super-high frequency terahertz bandwidth, as well as subterranean equipment. They expose us and all the surrounding biological organisms to far more radio frequency radiation than we have ever experienced before.

The above typical example demonstrates how deceptively unremarkable these installations may sometimes appear.
