Cellular FAST-DAS is an in-building cellular coverage solution sold by the area you need to cover rather than by the box. You pick the tier that matches your building. Powerful Signal engineers the system, supplies every component, installs it, and commissions it, all for one price agreed up front.
Most commercial cellular projects open with a design cycle that can run for months before anyone quotes a number. FAST-DAS compresses that by pre-engineering four solution tiers around the coverage levels commercial buildings actually ask for. The design work is still tailored to your floor plans, and the equipment is still chosen for your building. What changes is that the scope and the price are settled at the beginning instead of the end.
Powerful Signal is vendor-neutral. We build FAST-DAS systems with carrier-approved equipment from HiBoost, WilsonPro, and Nextivity, selecting the amplifier, the antenna count, and the layout that will perform best in your building rather than fitting your building to a predetermined equipment package. That judgment is part of what you are buying, which is why FAST-DAS is priced as a solution instead of as a parts list.
Coverage areas referenced on this page are at 700 MHz; higher-frequency bands attenuate faster through walls and reach less area.
Every tier covers three different areas depending on one thing: how strong the cellular signal is outside your building. A system can only rebroadcast what its donor antenna receives, so the same equipment that blankets 50,000 ft² at a site with strong outside signal may reach 7,500 ft² at a site where signal is weak.
That is why the table shows three numbers per tier instead of one. Read down the column that matches your site:
If you don’t know which column applies to your building, call us at 435-634-6800. Measuring outside signal takes a few minutes, and getting this right is the difference between a system that performs and one that disappoints.
Buildings larger than Tier 4, or with unusual requirements, are served by a fully custom design instead. Powerful Signal engineers in-building systems from a few thousand square feet to several million. Request a free custom quote and we will design to your building.
The tier price covers the system and a standard installation. The items below fall outside that scope. Most can be arranged at additional cost, so tell us about them before you order and we will price them into the project instead of raising them after work begins.
None of these need to be a surprise. Call us at 435-634-6800 before you order and we will tell you which apply to your building and what they cost.
Commercial buildings with cellular problems usually have them throughout the building rather than in one wing, which is why a redlined design from good floor plans is normally close to final. The site survey confirms the design rather than restarting it, and that is a large part of why FAST-DAS moves in weeks.
Our installer pulls every cable run. Plenum-rated cable is available at additional cost.
A FAST-DAS solution improves signal for Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T, and most others, all at the same time and on the same system.
Every phone and cellular device in the building benefits, whatever network it is on and whoever owns it. There is nothing for your employees, tenants, or visitors to install, join, or configure.
It operates on common cellular frequencies, and it carries no monthly fees, subscriptions, or recurring charges.
Any commercial building where people cannot rely on their phones. Powerful Signal has engineered in-building cellular systems across effectively every commercial building type in the United States since 2007.
Buildings built with steel, concrete, brick, foil-backed insulation, or low-E glass block cellular signal particularly well, which is why newer and more energy-efficient buildings often have the worst coverage.
