Cell towers in Digne-les-Bains

Declared supports include 1 camouflaged "tree" pylon, with pylons making up most of the remainder.

Declared locations include Les Augiers Nord, Bonnette, Saumon, L'Hubac des Bains, avenue St Véran and La Grosse Couasse.

ANFR lists a 49 m pylon at Saumon as the tallest structure. The median height of measured supports is 21 m.

2016 was the busiest year, with 45 new systems, most of them 4G. Free Mobile opened 5G here in December 2020; SFR followed in December 2021, Bouygues Telecom followed in December 2021. The oldest transmitter still listed here goes back to 1995.

27 systems were switched on in the past 12 months. Approved additions not yet in service are pending on 6 existing masts, for example Bouygues Telecom (4G 2600 MHz) at La Grosse Couasse, Bouygues Telecom (3G 900 MHz) at Les Augiers Nord and Free Mobile (4G 800 MHz) at L'Hubac des Bains. 10 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

3.5 GHz 5G is declared by Bouygues Telecom on 3 of its 8 masts, Orange on 3 of its 6 masts, SFR on 3 of its 8 masts and Free Mobile on 2 of its 5 masts.

Supports leave a gap of about 3.3 km to the south-west of the centre.

Nearby, Seyne-les-Alpes (30 km to the north) has only 5 masts.

Of the 13 masts in the commune, only one mast carries all four networks.

17,979 residents over 105 km²: supports are mostly pylons, not rooftops. It is part of the CA Provence-Alpes-Agglomération intercommunal grouping.
