Verizon Communications has signed a multi-year agreement with US tower operator Array Digital Infrastructure to expand and optimise its 5G network across the country. The deal enables Verizon to collocate on a significant number of Array’s 4,400 towers, supporting faster deployment of advanced wireless technologies and improving customer experience nationwide.

The agreement establishes a streamlined pricing structure for new sites, delivering long-term cost efficiency and flexibility in managing Verizon’s network portfolio. “This strategic partnership with Array is a key part of our network tower management strategy,” said Phillip French, Vice President of Engineering for Verizon. “It provides us with the nimbleness and flexibility to manage our network portfolio efficiently. The streamlined agreement allows for greater cost efficiency and, most importantly, accelerates our ability to deploy advanced wireless technologies to Verizon customers across the nation.”

Anthony Carlson, President and CEO of Array, added: “Our partnership with Verizon, particularly with this new agreement, creates great opportunities for both organisations. We’re pleased to continue growing Array and strengthening our position as one of the leading tower companies in the United States.”

The collaboration will enhance network reliability and coverage, particularly in areas experiencing growing demand for high-speed mobile connectivity. Verizon anticipates the partnership will accelerate the rollout of 5G services in urban, suburban, and rural locations, while also supporting emerging technologies such as edge computing and AI-driven network optimisation.

By leveraging Array’s nationwide tower portfolio, Verizon positions itself to maintain leadership in the competitive US telecom market, delivering a more responsive and resilient experience for consumers and enterprise clients alike. This strategic expansion reflects ongoing investment in infrastructure that underpins the future of wireless communications.
