Mobile Services market in India is growing at a rapid pace which has made it one of the fastest growing telecom markets in the world. Couple this with price pressures on the subscriber front and we have sufficient reason for sharing of passive telecom infrastructure.

AIPL, as an independent provider of passive telecom infrastructure, offers tower space and active electronics space to multiple operators at its owned sites. While providing CAPEX savings to operators, AIPL’s Passive Telecom Infrastructure Leasing Service also enables reduction of OPEX costs to the operators as it includes preventive and corrective maintenance of the sites in this service.

AIPL provides roof top and green field passive telecom infrastructure in two models:

Build and Lease

In this model, AIPL enters into an agreement with the Customer who becomes the anchor tenant for the Site. AIPL will obtain search ring from the customer and acquire a site within that search ring. Post acquisition, AIPL will build the passive telecom infrastructure at the site and provide it to the Anchor Tenant for occupancy. AIPL will retain the right to share this infrastructure with other mobile operators and service providers.

From its operations, AIPL has gained rich experience in Project Management and rollout of passive telecom infrastructure for mobile service providers. Its strong vendor base includes telecom infrastructure delivery companies with proven capability.

Co-location Site Sharing

In this model, AIPL offers its existing sites to Customers for occupancy as a second or third tenant.

AIPL has designed passive telecom infrastructure capable of accommodating up to 3 telecom operators which can be further increased depending on site configuration of the operators occupying the site. All sites owned by AIPL are maintained by an experienced O&M team for routine maintenance and breakdown / corrective maintenance. In addition, activities like payment of electricity bills, diesel filling, house-keeping etc. are carried out by AIPL’s O&M team.

This model gives the operator not only savings on CAPEX and OPEX but also provides an opportunity for the operator to reduce his time to market.
