Number	Best Practice
13-10-0448	Equipment Suppliers should where feasible, provide a memory management capability to reconfigure or expand memory without impacting stable calls or other critical processes (e.g., billing).
13-10-0449	Network Operators, Service Providers and Public Safety should where feasible, deploy fraudulent traffic (e.g., SPAM) controls in relevant nodes (e.g., message centers, email gateways) in order to protect critical network elements and services.
13-10-0450	Property Managers should maintain current documentation that ensures that the tower loading is consistent with the engineering design (e.g., antenna loading, feedline loading, ice or wind loading).
13-10-0451	Property Managers should conduct a periodic physical site audit to update and maintain accurate antenna and tower engineering documentation in order to positively identify every item on the tower structure (e.g., identifying rogue antennas).
13-10-0452	Network Operators, Service Providers, Property Managers, and Public Safety should post emergency contact number(s) and unique site identification in an externally visible location at unmanned communication facilities (e.g., towers, cell sites, Controlled Environment Vault (CEV), satellite earth stations), but should not reveal additional information about the facility, except when necessary.
13-10-0453	Network Operators, Service Providers, and Public Safety should prepare for HVAC or cabinet fan failures by ensuring that conventional fans are available to cool heat- sensitive equipment, as appropriate.
13-10-0454	Network Operators, Service Providers, Equipment Suppliers, and Public Safety should consider establishing technical and managerial escalation policies and procedures based on the service impact, restoration progress and duration of the issue.
13-10-0455	Equipment Suppliers and Network Operators should consider a program to remove cards or modules from circulation that have a history of failure even if tests indicate “No Trouble Found”.
13-10-0456	Network Operators, Service Providers, and Public Safety should maintain records of pertinent information related to a cell site for its prioritization in disaster recovery and key coverage areas (e.g., emergency services, government agencies, proximity to hospitals).
13-10-0457	Network Operators and Service Providers should develop a process to identify Radio Frequency (RF) dead spots and, where feasible, provide a solution to fill the dead spot with RF coverage.
13-10-0458	Network Operators should verify that calls handoff between cells when a new cell site is added to the network.
13-10-0459	Equipment Suppliers and Property Managers should design outdoor equipment to operate in expected environmental conditions (e.g., weather, earthquakes).
13-10-0461	Equipment Suppliers should provide the capability to test failover routines of redundant network elements.
13-10-0462	Network Operators should work in conjunction with Government to anticipate Radio Frequency (RF) capacity needs driven by changes in vehicle traffic patterns or other demographics.
13-10-0463	Network Operators and Service Providers should consider establishing agreements so that mobile customers can roam on other providers' networks.
13-10-0464	Network Operators and Government should cooperate on zoning issues that affect reliability of communication networks serving the public good.
13-10-0465	Network Operators and Public Safety should account for the effects of environmental changes on attenuation, shadowing, and multipath (e.g., new buildings, tree growth, construction materials) during initial design and through periodic reviews of cell site coverage.
13-10-0466	Network Operators should take into account link budget impacts due to propagation differences between various frequencies when planning network coverage.
13-10-0467	Network Operators should give consideration to the degree of balance between RF (Radio Frequency) channels on uplinks and downlinks, for both control and traffic for air interface reliability.
13-10-0469	Network Operators and Property Managers should consider the use of cable support (e.g., H-Frames, Ice Bridges) in tower and shelter designs.
