The BTS is able to provide the 3G data with the connection speed of up to 42Mbps within the coverage radius of approximately 3-4 km, ready for providing the mobile services of Vinaphone and Internet service from the height of 3.143m above sea level. This operation of the BTS can be considered as a proof of the effort of VNPT Lao Cai.
The implementation of the BTS plays a significant role in term of wireless communication and connection between local authorities and relevant departments in several sectors including security and defense tasks, forest fire prevention, agricultural and forestry products management, search and rescue in Hoang Lien national park.
Furthermore, the BTS also contributes positively to the development of the local economy and tourism by organizing explorations and studies of fauna and flora in Hoang Lien national forest.
