Industrial Generator Rentals for the Telecommunications Industry in and around Houston, TX
Telecommunications is the backbone of modern life. When power goes out, residents, businesses, and emergency responders still rely on phone service, data networks, and internet connectivity. For carriers, data centers, switching facilities, and cell towers, uptime isn’t optional—it’s a public necessity. Stag Rentals provides generator rentals from 20 kW up to 2,000 kW to help telecom providers keep networks stable, resilient, and compliant with regulatory requirements during outages or storms.
Serving Houston, Pasadena, Sugar Land, League City, Baytown, Pearland, The Woodlands, Conroe, Galveston, and nearby Gulf Coast cities, Stag Rentals delivers fast, compliant, and scalable backup power solutions for telecom operations of every size. Our diesel and natural gas units are designed for efficiency, quiet operation, and long runtime to ensure uninterrupted connectivity during both short-term power disruptions and extended grid failures.
Why Telecom Networks Can’t Afford Downtime
Consider a cell tower site in League City. Without backup power, coverage disappears instantly, leaving customers disconnected. A 40–60 kW generator can keep that site broadcasting signals until power is restored. In Pasadena, a network operations center processes switching and routing for thousands of calls and data sessions. A 200–400 kW rental ensures servers, cooling, and monitoring systems stay online. For larger call centers or data facilities in Baytown or Texas City, the load is far greater. A 1,000 kW system can support cooling, server racks, and IT infrastructure across an entire building. Even smaller network hubs—such as edge computing sites—typically need 60–150 kW to maintain connectivity and cooling during extended outages.
Telecommunications isn’t just another industry. During hurricanes, floods, or grid failures, telecom infrastructure keeps 911 services active, emergency alerts moving, and families in touch. Backup power ensures that responsibility is never compromised. Stag Rentals partners with telecom engineers, network managers, and utility coordinators to build resilient, compliant power strategies that meet FCC reliability standards.

| Edge Data Sites / Local Hubs | Servers, switches, HVAC, fire/security systems | 60 – 150 kW | 2 units (N+1 redundancy) |
| Network Operations Centers | IT systems, redundant servers, cooling, monitoring | 200 – 400 kW | 2–3 units (segmented or parallel) |
| Call Centers | Workstations, telephony servers, HVAC, lighting | 400 – 800 kW | 3 units (N+1 design) |
| Regional Data Facilities | Server racks, redundant HVAC, network security | 800 – 2,000 kW | 4+ units (2N or 2N+1 redundancy) |

Why Call To Rent A Generator Before The Next Hurricane Season Begins?
Risks Of Waiting To Rent A Generator
Limited Availability
Rental programs often operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Availability may be limited during peak times.
Delivery Delays
Moving a generator takes time. If you don't have a generator near your site, then you may be missing out when a hurricane hits.
"Surge Pricing"
Renting a generator after a hurricane strikes may incur an increase in price as many rental companies are moving towards a "surge pricing" model.
