Rooftop Infrastructure Management Services

We exclusively specialize in urban installations, using existing structures—primarily rooftops and  mechanical areas—to enable broadcast, private wireless networks and edge computing, and often experimental deployments such as drone docking. We operate across the United States and specialize in a turnkey model that reduces friction for operators while creating risk-managed, incremental revenue for property owners from space that historically produced no revenue.

Broadcasting

Enabling main, backup and auxiliary sites.

Private Networks

Point-to-point, private 5G, two-way radio.

Edge 

Colocation

Local content caching and edge AI.

Experimental 

Proof-of-concepts and stakeholder management.

Value for Property Owners

Urban rooftops and upper-floor utility areas often represent premium real estate that is underutilized commercially. We convert that unused space into predictable income without creating operational burden.

What property owners gain

  • New, low-touch revenue

    From previously back of house space, we enable you property to generate new revenue.

  • A track  record of professionalism

    With over 20 years of rooftop management experience we guarantee a professional experience that is non-disruptive to your operations. 

  • Risk-managed

    Through customer vetting, proper permitting and engineering reviews, as well as insurance and licensing arrangements we take every professional step to minimize risks. 

Our role is to make monetization straightforward: we qualify the site, package it for appropriate infrastructure tenants, and manage it over time.


For Broadcasters

Economical urban rooftop platforms for RF and regulated transmission—built on existing structures. We provide professionally managed urban transmission locations that support reliable operations, secure access, and long-term continuity—without requiring new tower construction.

  • Site licensing and local permitting

    With local market knowledge, we put permitting and FCC site approval on the fast track.

  • Managed site operations

    All our locations have secure access, are routinely inspected, and are fully coordinated for structural, grounding, electrical, and RF coexistence considerations

  • The locations you need

    Not every license or coverage requirement cleanly aligns with the radiated coverage of the major transmission sites, nor every budget, we provide the ideal locations to meet your needs.

We provide a stable, urban transmission footprint with fewer surprises and reduced operational friction—while property owners earn incremental income from previously idle space.


For Edge Compute

Low-latency compute where the city actually needs it—deployed on existing structures. Edge workloads succeed or fail on proximity, power, and access. We specialize exclusively in urban deployments that leverage existing buildings—rooftops and upper mechanical floors—as repeatable platforms for distributed compute. For operators, this means faster deployment in the right locations 


  • Faster time to deploy

    Space available now! By using pre-qualified urban sites instead of greenfield builds, a difficult proposition in a city, we get your product to market faster.

  • Need scale?

    Deploy one site or expand to a multi-metro network with consistent standards, a consistent partner, with clear tenancy boundaries, predictable site rules, and a governance model built for multi-tenant environments.

  • Low latency connectivity

    Through point-to-point wireless links, our private networks, or traditional cross or metro connects. By placing compute closer to your customer, your customer gets an edge up. 

By working with SkyNode, edge operators gain a practical, scalable way to deploy compute in the densest urban markets.
For Experimental

Our magic? We know how to navigate the urban minefield that is permitting and regulation. For organizations validating emerging technologies—including autonomous systems and urban automation—we provide access to urban sites with the governance and infrastructure required to operate responsibly. 


  • Experimental site licensing

    Get real world experience and feedback on existing urban structures with clear operating boundaries.

  • A partner that works with you

    We negotiation with all stakeholders to establish clear governance boundaries while enabling the power, connectivity, and integration, your team needs to succeed.

  • A path from pilot project to scale

    A successful project is great! A partner that can scale across the country and already knows your workflow and needs enables you to scale.

The outcome? A faster path to real-world validation in urban conditions—paired with a risk-managed model that enables property owners to generate additional income from space that historically produced none.
For Private Networks

We enable rooftop deployments for point-to-point data links, two-way radio communications, IoT, even private 5G, by leveraging urban elevation, dense connectivity options, strategically selected transmission, or receive, site locations. 


  • Clear line of site 

    Every singe one of our nodes has line of site to another node. We enable your data to flow to where you need it to be.

  • Elevation, elevation, elevation

    Be it a transmission site with voting receivers or a highly sectorized private 5G network we have the options to place your antennas at the elevation and location you require.

  • Reliable and secure locations

    We support critical life safety government communications at our locations, depending on your needs we can provide anything from a tier 1 to tier 4 location.

The result? Repeatable urban platforms that shorten deployment timelines and improve network resilience.
