Verizon has announced a new multi-year tower agreement with Array Digital Infrastructure, aimed at expanding and strengthening its 5G network across the United States.
As part of the deal, Verizon will gain access to thousands of cell tower sites owned and operated by Array, allowing the carrier to colocate its wireless equipment and improve both coverage and network capacity. Array’s tower portfolio spans more than 4,400 sites across 19 U.S. states, giving Verizon additional flexibility in rolling out and upgrading its 5G infrastructure.
The agreement also introduces a simplified, long-term pricing structure, which Verizon says will help reduce operational complexity while providing predictable costs for network expansion. This approach fits Verizon’s broader strategy of relying more on third-party infrastructure providers rather than owning and managing towers directly.
According to Verizon, the partnership will support faster deployment of advanced wireless technologies and make it easier to adapt network resources as demand grows. The company has increasingly moved toward leasing tower space in recent years, following earlier tower sales and infrastructure partnerships.
For Array Digital Infrastructure, the deal further establishes the company as a major player in the U.S. wireless tower market, while providing a stable, long-term tenant in one of the country’s largest mobile operators.
Verizon says the agreement will help improve 5G coverage, capacity, and network flexibility, particularly in markets where additional tower access is needed to meet rising data demand.
