Connected Technologies and NextInvest Deliver "Cellular as a Service" Solution for Bethlehem Church's New 316 Campus

Athens, GA – January 23, 2025

Connected Technologies, LLC, has successfully implemented a cutting-edge 'cellular as a service' solution at Bethlehem Church's new 316 campus. During final phases of construction, the church encountered significant cellular signal challenges caused by the new building’s concrete walls. In response, Connected Technologies designed a comprehensive cellular boosting system and then adhering to the church's pre-determined budget, partnered with NextInvest, Inc. to alleviate capex investment constraints.

The innovative solution features the installation of the Nextivity Cel-Fi Quatra 4000c system, complemented by a Fiber Extender for the student building. This system ensures reliable cellular coverage for AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile users across the main auditorium (77,588 sq. ft.) and the student building (13,753 sq. ft.).

"Connected Technologies understands the financial constraints organizations face, especially during construction projects," said Ren Buckland, COO of Connected Technologies. "Our partnership with NextInvest allows us to offer flexible 'cellular as a service' options. These solutions eliminate upfront costs, provide predictable monthly expenses, and ensure crucial connectivity needs are met without straining budgets."

The enhanced cellular coverage supports Bethlehem Church's 7,500 members, enabling seamless use of in-service apps for note-taking, event sign-ups, prayer requests, giving, and other digital tools. Additionally, the reliable signal improves safety and communication by enabling secure text messaging between children’s ministry staff and parents, giving peace of mind during services.

This project underscores Connected Technologies' commitment to delivering tailored connectivity solutions that address both technical and financial challenges. By combining advanced technology with innovative financing options, Connected Technologies and NextInvest empower organizations to thrive in today’s digital-first world.
