Cell towers in Salles (Gironde)

Declared locations include Pécherbes, Au Pas de Pajot, La Vignolle, A Baptiste-Courbin, Picrabey and Champs de Tyes.

ANFR lists a 56 m pylon at Au Pas de Pajot as the tallest structure. The median is 43 m, above the Gironde median of 36 m.

13 systems were switched on in the past 12 months. ANFR has approved 2 new sites that are not live yet, plus additions on 2 existing masts. New: Bouygues Telecom (3G, 4G and 5G, including 5G at 3.5 GHz) at 11 Route du Martinet, Orange (3G, 4G and 5G, including 5G at 3.5 GHz) at La Règue Mequeou and SFR (3G, 4G and 5G, including 5G at 3.5 GHz) at 11 Route du Martinet. 2 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

No mast is operator-owned: Totem has 5, TDF has 4 and Hivory has 3.

Only Orange broadcasts 5G at 3.5 GHz here, on 3 of its 7 masts. 75% of the town's masts carry 5G, fewer than across Gironde towns with five or more masts (89%).

2016 was the busiest year, with 23 new systems, most of them 4G. Free Mobile switched on the first 5G here in December 2020; Bouygues Telecom followed in August 2021, SFR followed in August 2021. The oldest transmitter still listed here goes back to 2000.

Supports leave a gap of about 3.3 km to the north-east of the centre.

Mios lies 8 km to the north-west and has 17 masts, more than here.

Of the 12 masts in the commune, 9 of the 12 masts host at least two operators.

By mast count, Salles is 23rd of the 62 Gironde towns that have five or more. With 12 masts for 8,208 residents, or 15 per 10,000, it has more masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (10).

8,208 residents over 138 km²: supports are mostly pylons, not rooftops. It is part of the CC du Val de l'Eyre intercommunal grouping.
