SAT GROUP Inc.
ELEVATOR’S PITCH
SAT Group Inc. is engineering a tower to help
leading telecommunications companies in
United States & Mexico, which are facing
safety related maintenance issues, by
providing self-supporting towers.

PROBLEMS
SAFETY RELATED ISSUES
The current practices in the tower installations and maintenance industry are very dangerous, as the
engineers have to climb up the tower, which are several hundred feet above ground that results in
accidental deaths.
According to WirelessEstimator.com, there were 43 fatalities at communication tower worksites between
2011-16.
EXPENSIVE
The tower maintenance is currently costly for the telecommunication companies, as it involves
hiring engineers who are risking their lives at the tower sites and also paying hefty insurance
premiums for accidental coverage of the engineers.
TIME CONSUMING
Current tower maintenance practices are very time consuming, since the engineers have to climb up to the
antennas which results in massive downtime of the targeted telecom antennas.
UNWELCOMED INTERRUPTIONS
Existing tower maintenance companies lease the tower to multiple companies, which means
multiple antennas on a single tower. Maintenance of one company’s antennas also result in
unwelcomed interruptions of the signal supplies to other companies’ service users.

PROBLEMS
First-Hand Visual of risks
faced by technicians
“When forced to
choose, I will not
trade even a night’s
sleep for the chance of
extra profits.”
- Warren Buffett
But these corporations
are risking the
valuable lives of these
highly skilled
individuals, who try to
make honest living.

MARKET SIZE
The industry has also seen a steady increase in capital expenditures to go along with the tower site expansion. SNL
Kagan estimates the total U.S. carrier capex was about $20.59 billion in 2008 and grew to over $30 billion five years
later at the peak of the 4G LTE buildout
The Key driving forces of tower industry are:
• Advancement of technology
• Innovation in tower designs
• Competition
• Coverage of Rural Areas

SOLUTION
SAFER MECHANISM
The use of self-supporting towers will eliminate the need of climbing the tower by the engineer, thus
resulting in no injuries/fatalities of engineers. The self-supporting tower will elevate/demote the
antennas/mast through remote programming for maintenance and upgrades.
COST EFFECTIVE
The self-supporting towers will help the telecommunication companies to reduce their cost by
negotiating salaries with the engineers as the engineers will not have to risk their lives anymore.
Additionally, the Telco will save insurance cost of accidental coverage of their technicians.
TIME SAVING
Through remote programming, the Engineers will demote the antennas/mast while being on their way to
site, which will result in minimum downtime and improved services to the users.
NO MORE INTERRUPTIONS
Through innovation, the mast will be able demote antennas of particular telecommunication
company which will result in no interruption for other antennas of different companies.

PRODUCT
The tower will be a decagon, so that 360-degree
coverage can be split into 40-degree slices for
increased, pinpointed coverage. It is also
designed this way so that masts that hold
antennas/microwaves etc. and as well be a
standalone unit so that when maintenance or
upgrades are warranted it can be easily retracted
for maintenance and upgrade. It will also have
advertising banners that can be electronic or
inert. Material will be sleek, with clean lines
modern and cloaked for multiuse.
This design has a trifecta benefit:
• It allows technicians to have easy access to the
mast without having to take a risk of climb. In
turn allowing carriers to limit injuries or even
fatalities for install, upgrades and
maintenance and save time and money.
• One will be able to access a unit without
interfering with other carriers; also remote
adjust antenna azimuth.
• One will be able to put advertising to one of
the faces.SAT GROUP Inc. Strictly Confidential 8

• Tower has docking station for recharging drones
• Rapid deployment
• Renewal Power Supply
• Communication Nesting System
• NOC will have the ability to drop antennas into
