Revolutionizing Telecom Connectivity: DAS and Small Cells Unleashed

It is no surprise that 5G technology is revolutionizing the telecommunications industry. This upgraded wireless network technology enables significantly more data to flow rapidly from one point to another. That is driving, and is driven by, demand for increased communication speed and better inter-connectivity.

The obvious result is that consumers want and expect seamless access for any device, from any location, for any data-sharing purpose. As reliance on mobile devices and data services grows, so does the requirement for better telecom infrastructure to provide them.

Two crucial solutions have emerged to address these challenges, Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) and Small Cells. They enable providers to meet the ever-expanding need for better coverage and capacity, what we might term ‘hyper-connectivity.’

Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS)

A distributed antenna system is designed to overcome poor reception within a building or outdoor public location. It consists of a network of relatively small antennas that serve as cellular signal transmitters. The antennas are connected to a central controller, which is integrated into the wireless carrier’s network.

Although sometimes known as an in-building wireless system, a DAS network can be used outdoors as well, unlike traditional macro cells. The strategic placement of antennas throughout a target area with high user density enhances both coverage and capacity by eliminating coverage gaps. Such gaps are often due to the materials used in the construction of a building, including concrete, metal and low-energy glass.

LEED-certified buildings can be a common challenge, causing cellular and radio frequency signals to bounce back. This can cause low signals or dropped calls. Also, high demand of voice and data services by multiple users can slow down or disrupt service. DAS networks overcome those challenges, greatly improving the user experience for voice and data service. They are therefore popular for venues such as stadiums, airports, shopping malls, and office buildings.

Small Cells

Small cells are low-powered radio access nodes that complement the macro cell infrastructure. They can be deployed in a decentralized manner in order to extend wireless coverage and capacity. Small cells are ideal for areas with high user demand in urban locations, and are commonly installed on utility poles, streetlights, and building facades.

The rapid growth in wireless devices and data access requirements are a challenge for traditional network infrastructure and macro cell towers. This can lead to network congestion, dropped calls, slow internet speeds, and poor coverage. Small cells can use existing cellular networks as neutral hosts, and a single network can be shared among multiple parties to reduce costs and manage overhead. This enables greater flexibility and functionality on the network.

Neutral-host DAS provides network upgrade overlays and improvements on existing technology frameworks. It can simplify equipment requirements, and provide more capacity, stronger signals and more reliable connectivity. Small cells can offer high-quality, seamless wireless connectivity with enhanced monitoring, real-time maintenance and 24/7 customer support.

Improving Network Connectivity, Coverage, Costs and Enabling 5G

The implementation of DAS networks and small cells offers significant benefits in connectivity, capacity and cost savings – benefiting telecommunications companies and their customers.
