Your tenants expect five bars.

Yes. A single DAS infrastructure can carry all three major carriers simultaneously, so tenants stay connected regardless of which network they're on. We handle carrier coordination with each provider independently and engineer the system to meet every carrier's technical requirements under one roof.

We do it all the time. Our teams work in live, occupied environments with phased floor-by-floor scheduling, off-hours work where required, and tight coordination with property management to avoid disrupting tenants. We run cable above ceiling tiles, keep common areas clean, and replace any displaced fire caulking or damaged ceiling panels as part of our standard scope.

We do, entirely. That includes submitting applications, navigating each carrier's approval process, and ensuring the installed system meets their technical specifications before sign-off. You don't need a direct relationship with any carrier to get this done.

Between roughly $0.58 and $1.30 per square foot, depending on building size, construction type and the technology path. The lower figure is typical of a hybrid DAS, the upper figure of an active DAS with carrier-grade signal sources. Our budgetary estimates are usually accurate to within 10% of final pricing.

Most commercial office projects run 5 to 12 weeks. That breaks down as 1 to 3 weeks for system design and the on-site visit, 1 to 3 weeks for the final proposal, and 3 to 6 weeks of installation time once approved.

Yes, and we plan for that upfront. Adding coverage to new floors, adjacent suites, or an additional carrier typically means extending the existing cable plant rather than starting from scratch, which is significantly more cost-effective.

Every project includes a signal audit report with before-and-after coverage maps. We use grid testing to record signal strength floor by floor, so the maps show measured results rather than a prediction. If cellular coverage is part of your leasing story, that gives you something tangible to back it up.

A distributed antenna system takes one cellular signal source and distributes it through the building over cable to antennas placed floor by floor. Office buildings need one because the things that make a building perform — low-e glass, concrete cores, metal decking, below-grade parking — also block cellular signal. When tenants step outside to finish a call, that reads as a building problem, not a carrier problem.

Either, and the choice moves both cost and schedule. An off-air system puts a donor antenna on the roof and re-uses the carrier signal already outside your building — faster and less expensive, but it depends on how strong and clean that outside signal is. A carrier-fed system uses equipment the carrier provides in your headend, which gives dedicated capacity but adds carrier lead time. We measure rooftop signal during the site visit and tell you which path your building can actually support. Carrier approval is required either way.

No. Coverage is whether a phone has usable signal. Capacity is how many phones can use it at once. A full-floor tenant with a few hundred people can show full bars at 9 a.m. and still crawl. Antenna placement solves coverage; the signal source solves capacity, which is why dense floors typically point toward a carrier-fed design — an off-air system shares whatever capacity the nearest macro site has left. Give us headcount per floor and we design to it.

We commission the system, document it, and hand over the as-builts. After that you decide how much of the ongoing work stays with us — options range from remote monitoring and a periodic performance check to a response-time agreement where you call us and we deal with the carrier. If the building also has a public safety system, your local code sets its inspection and testing intervals, and we can carry that scope as well.
