ERP of base station: up to 500W per channel.

You are 100% sure that will have absolutely no impact on insects or birds in close proximity to it?

More like 200W with LTE.

But even if it would be 500W, no haven't heared of it. Which does not mean that it could happen. But then again the question was not a) insects or birds or b) close proximity (which is what, close then 1m?)
