Summary

Radio communication equipment installers are technicians who install, adjust, and maintain wireless communication equipment such as mobile base stations and wireless network equipment.

Description

Radio communication equipment installers specialize in the installation, wiring, and adjustment of wireless communication equipment such as mobile base stations and wireless LAN access points. On-site, they assemble and install antennas, perform coaxial cable wiring, measure radio wave levels, conduct tuning and adjustments to ensure communication quality meets specifications. Much of the work is outdoors or at heights, requiring safety measures and judgment of weather conditions. They collaborate with base station engineers and electricians, handling equipment setup, network connections, and operational verification. In the future, with the spread of 5G and IoT devices, skills in constructing higher frequency bands and small base stations will become increasingly important.

Future Outlook

With the spread of 5G and IoT, demand for the introduction and renewal of wireless communication equipment is expected to remain steady. Acquiring installation techniques for high-frequency bands and small base stations will be a key turning point in one's career.
