The Communications Gap
Mobile communications connect people to work, entertainment and each other in ways that boost productivity and enhance lives. However, a buildings structure can block users from receiving a call or a life-saving alert. In-building wireless (IBW) communications provide the critical link to enable the use of cell phones, pagers, PDAs, two-way radios, wireless LANs, emergency communications and wireless building system devices within an enclosed structure.

Through the use of specialized equipment, IBW infrastructures, also known as distributed antenna systems (DAS), can be installed in nearly any structure including hospitals, schools, airports, office buildings and stadiums to enable the use of wireless devices, technologies and applications. By using the signal from a local cell tower, IBW propagates the signal via strategically positioned repeaters and antennae throughout the building to extend the reach of the signal and provide users with expected service.

IBW Signal Path

1. Point of interface (POI) receives a signal from a carriers wireless network. 2. Remote unit receives a signal from the point of interface. 3. Coverage antenna propagates the signal to the usage area. 4. Low-voltage copper transmits the signal through the system horizontally using half-inch coax or unshielded twisted pair (UTP). 5. Backbone cable transmits signal through the system riser using fiber or UTP. 6. Signal splitter/combiner takes multiple signals and either separates or multiplexes them for transmission.

In-Building Staff
Enabled by Wi-Fi and 3G/4G connectivity, in-building wireless allows staff to access information from anywhere in a building from any device, such as accessing a patients records on a tablet before surgery.
First Responders and Security

In an emergency, first responders and security personnel use wireless access to retrieve floor plans, personnel rosters and rescue strategies to determine the appropriate action. IBW systems are the effective link in keeping people and facilities safe and secure.
The Mobile Worker

With mobile applications, anyplace can become a workstation. Reliable connectivity to documents, texts and calls is just as essential anywhere inside a building as it is at the desk. IBW provides the connectivity to help workers stay productive.
