What technologies can improve cell signal reception in my building?
Solutions are available that can improve cell signal reception for employees and customers in your building, regardless of which carrier they use.
Distributed antenna systems (DAS) are available in two forms, called passive DAS and active DAS (which includes fiber DAS systems).
- Passive DAS systems are often considerably less expensive than fiber DAS, and can be implemented in buildings of any size.
- Fiber DAS systems are more expensive, and are usually most cost-effective in high-traffic buildings of more than one million square feet (convention centers, airports, etc.).
- Active DAS solutions from Powerful Signal fill the need for buildings in the “middleprise” (50,000 to 1 million square feet) at less than one quarter the cost per square foot.
