In Selela 2G networks from various operators are present, though none of them has a 3G coverage at the market place, the dispensary or the school. The main reason is that the 3G towers are too far away, in the case of Halotel the distance is more than 20 km from Selela to the Halotel tower on the hill-side close to Mbo wa Mtu.

Current installation

Currently the market place is connected, based on a 3 m pole connected to an existing pole on the roof, reaching up to about 6 m over ground. The mobile network connects to the 3G Tigo tower through directive antenna more than 20 km away. UMTS 900 MHz connection.

  • Equipment includes:
  • (1) Internet Link
  • (1) LNCC
  • (1) Raspberry Pi

Future extension

The potential extensions include a link to the school, and the link to the dispensary. However, we first need to clarify on how to attach the pole to the buildings.
