Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Operating Segments Operating Segment
Reportable Segment
The Fiber Business is predominately comprised of the assets that the Company previously reported under the historic Fiber segment. Following the classification of the Fiber Business as discontinued operations, the Company has one reportable segment that constitutes consolidated results consisting of its towers operations. Following the execution of the Strategic Fiber Agreement, the Fiber Business is treated as discontinued operations for all periods presented because the anticipated disposal represents a strategic shift that will have a material impact on the Company's operating results. As such, the Company recast results for all periods presented under the discontinued operations basis of presentation. The determination that the Company operates as a single segment is consistent with the nature of its operations and the financial information regularly reviewed by the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer in such person's capacity as the CODM.
The Company provides access, including space or capacity, to the Company's approximately 40,000 towers geographically dispersed throughout the U.S. The Company also offers site development services as an ancillary offering relating to its towers.
The measurement of profit or loss primarily used by the CODM in making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources is net income (loss).
The following table sets forth the Company's results, including significant expenses not presented in the condensed consolidated statement of operations comprehensive income (loss), for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Since the Company operates as one reportable segment that constitutes consolidated continuing results of operations, there are no reconciling items between segment and consolidated assets or capital expenditures from continuing operations.
