The Age of Supercells: When the macro signal doesn’t penetrate into buildings
There is no one-size-fits-all solution for the cellular coverage holes, dropped calls, unreliable connectivity, and poor reception that plague employees and guests inside middleprise buildings (i.e., those that are up to 500,000 sq. ft.). Carriers and system integrators have all been challenged by the demands for better cellular reception in commercial buildings whether they are […]
Extending FirstNet Coverage Indoors
The events that took place on 9/11 revealed a number of holes in America’s emergency communications infrastructure. On the ground at the World Trade Center that day, first responders from all across the eastern seaboard converged to provide assistance. Cellular and radio communication among emergency personnel was seriously challenged, making it difficult to coordinate rescue […]
The Case for DAS Hybrid
Atlantic Technology Group solves cellular signal problems for law enforcement agency and major newspaper with new active DAS hybrid Spotting disruptive technology is not always easy. Even so, the most successful channel partners I’ve worked with over the past 20 years are in tune with the ebbs and flows of market fluctuations. They constantly keep […]
Cost Breakdown: Middleprise Cellular Coverage
Addressing cellular infrastructure for small to mid-size enterprise (middleprise – from 15,000 square feet to 500,000 square feet) has hit a major challenge in terms of who pays for the in-building system. Carriers may be willing to subsidize enterprise solutions for large-scale customers that are larger than 500,000 square feet (usually in the form of […]
The 4th Utility: Cellular
What are the costs of in-building coverage? Addressing cellular infrastructure for small to mid-size (SME) enterprise has hit a major challenge in terms of who pays for the in-building system. Carriers are often willing to subsidize enterprise solutions for large-scale customers (usually in the form of a classic DAS), but the ROI for a SME […]
CEL-FI GO featured in Farming Ahead
Boosting phone reception with a CEL-FI GO A simple lack of reception, call drop-outs, and others that go straight to message bank are all daily occurrences for people who live in rural and remote areas of the country. Unreliable coverage is more than just an inconvenience – it is a safety issue in an emergency […]
System Integrators – A Vital Link to Bringing In-Building Wireless Solution to the Middleprise
The middleprise – defined as commercial venues with up to 500,000 sq. ft. of space – has long been underserved when it comes to solutions that solve in-building cellular coverage problems. Systems integrators in this market have consistently run into the same pain points, regardless of the industry in which they specialize. Active DAS solutions, […]
The CEL-FI GO X: Consistent Client Contact for the Home Office
When your livelihood depends on consistent client contact, missed calls mean missed opportunities. I’ve recently made the decision to work from home, and in line with this my family moved to a bungalow located on the outskirts of town. My work is mostly online and we have a strong wired connection, but cellphone signal is […]
How CEL-FI GO X delivered stronger cellular coverage for financial services provider
The banking industry is not without its challenges when it comes to in-building cellular coverage. Large banks with central offices and multiple locations can often run into issues at both the branch level and the ATM network. Here’s a case in point. One of the country’s biggest banks with more than 25,000 branches in regions […]
Why CEL-FI QUATRA Offers Better Coverage and signal Strength than Passive DAS
One of the issues with passive DAS (pDAS) or BDA (bi-directional amplifier) systems is that the cellular signal loses strength – also known as attenuation – the further the distance the remote unit is from the head end. That’s because pDAS is an analog system in which cellular signals are distributed over coax cable that […]
