Towerstream Corporation announced an agreement with Syscom Telecom. Towerstream and Syscom Telecom will co-market backhaul, small cell and Wi-Fi services to billboard owners and wireless carriers operating throughout Towerstream's fixed wireless network. Syscom Telecom has formed a strategic partnership with Kinetic, which will support this effort and through it acquires certain rights with respect to over tens of thousands alternative infrastructure assets (including digital billboard locations across the U.S.).

The agreement between Towerstream and Syscom Telecom offers several benefits to each company were Microwave Backhaul: For alternative infrastructure owners who work with Syscom Telecom on their wireless infrastructure needs and are located in Towerstream's fixed wireless footprint, Towerstream can provide reliable, high-capacity backhaul to locations that don't have a fiber link and need seamless transport of data back to their carrier network. Small Cell: Due to their location, height and proximity to high-traffic urban areas, billboards are optimal locations for wireless carriers building out small cell networks. Carriers adopting small cell infrastructure require simple site acquisition, power accessibility and backhaul connectivity.

Towerstream's small cell offering coupled with Syscom Telecom's prime billboard locations offer carriers immediate and accelerated solutions. Wi-Fi: Billboard advertisers strive for data collection and geo-targeting in an effort to advance location-based strategies and sell more products and services. As Syscom Telecom looks to further monetize their partnership with billboard owners, Towerstream's Wi-Fi solution offers concentrated access point deployments to capture relevant data that advertisers are looking for.
