So... how many tags will this node have, once you have tagged all of its 
components?

From [1 <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_transceiver_station>]:

> A *BTS *is usually *composed of*:

> Transceiver (TRX)

> Power amplifier (PA)

Mapping each component (/yes, the antenna too.../) separatly doesn't make much 
sense to me...
