It is well known that modern (and old) buildings often suffer from poor indoor signal coverage. On a routine day, the lack of signal may seem like a minor annoyance, but during an emergency, wireless connectivity is critical. A site survey from a certified Nextivity rep can help you better understand the gaps in coverage you may have throughout building or campus so you can ensure all occupants have a cellular signal when and where they need it. You can use the survey results in many ways, such as: improved infrastructure and budget planning, determining areas that most need improvement, and justifying the expense of a system. In some cases, we are able to offer a survey free of charge.
A site survey is an essential process for measuring and assessing cellular and LMR radio coverage inside a building. The survey will identify “dead zones” or areas within the building where cellular or radio signals are being blocked. Later on it will help determine the best locations for installing equipment to strengthen signals inside.
Site surveys are conducted by certified sales and installation partners who have passed relevant Nextivity University courses and have access to the Nextivity WAVE Portal, which generates the report.
Nextivity will help coordinate with a sales or installation partner local to you, as well as gather basic site information and help prepare the necessary tools and equipment. The Nextivity partner conducting the survey will be at your site for a few hours, with minimal disruptions to operations.
Nextivity partners use advanced tools and technologies for site surveys, including:
Yes! The site survey will assess the signal strength of different operators, including AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. This ensures that the coverage solutions provided are effective for all users within the building, regardless of their cellular service provider. In addition, the site survey also includes information about LMR coverage.
The site survey results document typically includes the following sections:
