Verizon Wireless places 'COLT' at Citizens Bank Park

(Telecomworldwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
Verizon Wireless, a joint venture of Verizon Communications (NYSE:VZ)
and Vodafone (NYSE:VOD) (LSE:VOD), announced on Thursday (23 October)
that it has placed a temporary mobile cell site called a COLT (Cell on
Light Truck) near Citizen's Bank Park in order to cope with the
expected increase in wireless calls from baseball fans during the
championship series.

The COLT is reportedly a fully functional, generator-powered mobile
cell site that enhances wireless capacity. The cell site enables more
customers to use their wireless phones to make calls, send and receive
text and picture messages, surf the Web and download music.



The temporary cell site is part of Verizon Wireless' continuous effort
to increase capacity and enhance the quality of its wireless voice and
data network in the Philadelphia Tri-State region.
