Cell towers in Meylan (Isère)

Most of the town's 15 masts are pylons (9); 1 water tower make up the rest of the mix.

Antennas are listed at Boulevard des Alpes, Montbonnot, Carrefour, Grangeage, 4 Impasse de l'Ancienne Mairie and Champ Bouru.

Over the past 12 months ANFR recorded 8 new systems here. ANFR has approved one new site that is not live yet, plus additions on one existing mast. New: Free Mobile (4G and 5G) at 15b Chemin de l Eglise. 4 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

Systems from 1999 are still on the register. Free Mobile switched on the first 5G here in December 2020; Orange followed in September 2022, Bouygues Telecom followed in April 2023. 2013 was the busiest year, with 20 new systems, most of them 4G.

The highest support stands 35 m at Champ Bouru (pylon). The median height of measured supports is 25 m.

6 supports carry only Orange.

On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Orange on 6 of its 7 masts, Free Mobile on all 5 masts, Bouygues Telecom on 2 of its 3 masts and SFR on 1 of its 2 masts.

The widest declared gap between neighbouring supports is about 1.7 km, to the north of the centre.

Nearby, La Tronche (2.5 km to the west) has only 7 masts.

Among the 43 Isère towns with at least five masts, Meylan ranks 7th by mast count. With 15 masts for 18,770 residents, or 8 per 10,000, it has fewer masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (9).

Figures above cover installations declared to ANFR as in service or technically operational, as of October 2026; approved projects are not counted.
