S6: Trailer Mounted Mast

Portable Telescopic Masts

The S6 telecom shelter mobile platform is our economical solution for applications requiring a trailer-mounted tower system.

Our S6 trailer-mounted tower is the smallest shelter vehicle-mounted tower in our portfolio.  As with all of our shelters, it offers a solidly built, portable shelter on a trailer with a pivoting mobile lattice tower on top.  Although it is smaller, it comes with a plethora of options, including custom electrical systems and equipment racks. Since it is smaller and lightweight, it can be towed by most vehicles equipped with class 4 hitches.

Trailer-Mounted Mast: How It Works

All of our trailer-mounted tower systems are user-friendly and designed with ergonomics in mind.  Each portable telescopic antenna tower is simple to deploy and easy to maintain.

  • The mobile shelter measures 76 in (193 cm) W x 60 in (152.40 cm) L x 84 in (213.36 cm) H.
  • Although the S6 is the smallest of our telecom shelter sizes, it has ample room for 1 to 2 standard-sized equipment racks and all the functionality and accessories available as the larger systems, including HVAC systems, generators, and electrical systems.
  • It is lightweight enough to be towed by most trucks, while still providing a shelter enclosure to house your communications equipment. The S6 makes for a simple, lightweight trailer-mounted mast mobile platform.
  • A range of guyed towers from 25 ft (7.62 m) to 100 ft (30.48 m) are available with this model, including our extra-extra-heavy-duty version (T-50XXHD).

Optional Accessories Include:

  • Diesel Generators
  • Aluma Tower’s custom coax reels
  • Custom aluminum fuel tanks
  • Aluminum Treadplate storage boxes
  • 500 W telescoping lights
  • Motorola R56 complete grounding system
  • Isolated Radio equipment racks
  • Air conditioner/heater units
  • Antenna storage containers
  • Flashing emergency lights
  • Numerous other accessories
