Place names on the register include Aire des Bois Impériaux, Lagarenne, Les Contours, Rue Saint-Exupéry and Bois du Tureau.

Inventory: a 52 m pylon, at Aire des Bois Impériaux, for Bouygues Telecom, Free Mobile, Orange and SFR; a 19 m building, at Lagarenne, for Free Mobile; a 32 m pylon, at Les Contours, for Free Mobile; a 33 m pylon, at Rue Saint-Exupéry, for Bouygues Telecom and SFR; a 30 m pylon, at Bois du Tureau, for Bouygues Telecom, Free Mobile and SFR.

The highest support stands 52 m at Aire des Bois Impériaux (pylon). The median height of measured supports is 32 m.

Only Free Mobile broadcasts 5G at 3.5 GHz here, on 2 of its 4 masts. 100% of the town's masts carry 5G, more than across Yonne towns with five or more masts (83%).

2024 was the busiest year, with 18 new systems, most of them 4G. Local 5G started with Free Mobile in January 2021; Bouygues Telecom followed in February 2024, SFR followed in May 2024. The oldest transmitter still listed here goes back to 2014.

11 systems were switched on in the past 12 months. Approved additions not yet in service are pending on one existing mast, for example Free Mobile (5G 700 MHz) at Les Contours. 2 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

By mast count, Moneteau is 14th of the 14 Yonne towns that have five or more. With 5 masts for 4,114 residents, or 12 per 10,000, it has fewer masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (16).

Supports leave a gap of about 1.9 km to the west of the centre. Most declared azimuths point outward, along a corridor or valley rather than at the centre.

Brienon-sur-Armancon lies 16 km to the north and has 8 masts, more than here.

Of the 5 masts in the commune, only one mast carries all four networks.

Supports split between 4 pylons and 1 building.
