A small cell is a radio access point with low radio frequency (RF) power output, footprint and range. It is operator-controlled, and can be deployed indoors or outdoors, and in licensed, shared or unlicensed spectrum. | A small cell is a radio access point with low radio frequency (RF) power output, footprint and range.

=== Femtocell === | |||
Like other operators, AT&T sells indoor femtocells to their customers for home use. | |||
It is currently advised to mark these femtocells as '''decommissioned''' on the map and not pin them to any location. Do '''not''' mark femtocells as a DAS. | |||
They can be identified by their 6-digit eNB starting with 9, with multiple transmit locations across the country on a single eNB. | |||
== NR Mapping Practices == | |||
AT&T's 5G Standalone network is not available for consumer use yet. Note that it ''is'' still possible to map these networks on some devices via band locking. For best results, try locking n5 or n77 using a '''Verizon'''-based SIM card which may actively avoid locking on to Verizon's own 5G SA network. | |||
