1. A street pole comprising:
an antenna section, said antenna section has a length L and comprises antenna mounting tolerance features to enable mounting of a coaxial antenna around the pole with at least a local clearance in a range of 0.2 to 8 mm for providing a bending space for the pole, wherein the antenna section comprises at least one of the following antenna mounting tolerance features for attaining the bending space:
suspension with O-rings wherein the O-rings are each mounted at a distance Dr of 0.5*(1−½√2)*L±10% from a respective end of the antenna; or
a reduced outer diameter of the pole at a bottom end and a top end of the antenna section; and
one of:
an extruded cable sleeve with opening in circumference over its full length for easy assembling and to spring mount the cable sleeve around the pole, or
a grooved pole with axial grooves for collecting residual particles at preferred locations.
