We provide customers with infrastructure that enables faster deployment and creative network solutions and offer flexible ownership and financing structures for poles, towers, dark fiber, and wireless networks.
Our growing portfolio of wooden, metal and decorative concealed structures enable today’s dense wireless coverage applications while being community sensitive. Our flexible approach offers customers the ability to utilize new and existing infrastructure to optimize for cost, speed and technical requirements. We specialize in providing any element of our clients’ infrastructure – poles, towers, dark fiber and wireless networks on an elemental, disaggregated or bundled basis.
Tilson assists Airband partners with the expansion of your subscriber relationships, by helping your organization get setup in Microsoft 365, Azure and Surface into your offerings. Understanding the services, becoming part of the Microsoft Partner Network, and choosing a distributor to work with can each be a challenging task. The team at Tilson understands this process and can work with your organization to navigate this process and start increasing your Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) today.
Airband partners can also benefit significantly by migrating your operational and backend systems to Azure allowing you to scale nationally without infrastructure limitations. Tilson’s consultants have many years of Azure experience providing design & engineering, deployment or migration, and ongoing support of Azure environments that can provide for all of your data center needs. Deploying or migrating to Azure can save your organization significant costs, while also providing the resiliency and scalability that many WISPs cannot afford with in house infrastructure.
