With a proper understanding of what the DAS needs to accomplish our wireless network infrastructure engineers are able to design an optimal layout of repeater antennas and cabling. Though often overlooked, we’ve found a preliminary wireless system design is the most important step to eliminating unnecessary costs and determining how multiple budget line items can combine to increase the system’s return on investment (ROI).
We create a preliminary wireless Distributed Antenna System (DAS) design based on three criteria:
- The wireless technologies to be enhanced (i.e. cell/PCS, paging, 802.11a, 802.11b/g, public safety, etc.
- The in-building coverage area (i.e. 95% of the floor space)
- The minimal signal strength (i.e. -95 dBm).
