Reliable cellular coverage for warehouses and industrial facilities

We design around the racking and other RF obstacles that block signal before it reaches the aisles. We measure signal on site, model the building in iBwave, and place antennas to push coverage into the aisles, mezzanines and lower areas, as we did at Mouser Electronics.

In some designs, yes. The DAS must support the frequencies and interfaces used by both the mobile carriers and your private network. We check that compatibility before recommending a shared system.

A private LTE network still needs its own radio and core network equipment and compatible devices; sharing the DAS does not provide those by itself. We’ll explain whether a shared or separate design makes more sense for your facility.

We plan the work with your operations and safety teams, then phase installation around agreed access windows. That includes coordinating lift access, overhead work and any temporary restrictions in active aisles or production areas.

At FANUC’s West Campus, we installed cabling and antennas first, then returned for the active electronics. For a replacement system, we also assess whether the existing service can stay operational until cutover. Any expected interruptions are discussed before the affected work begins.

RSRF coordinates the technical submissions, applications and integration work required for the proposed system. We confirm which carriers you need and whether signal will come from rooftop antennas, existing small cells or dedicated carrier equipment.

Each carrier controls its own approvals and any equipment or activation it provides. We track those requirements and explain how they affect the schedule. Existing signal sources may be reusable, but we confirm compatibility during design rather than assuming they can connect directly.

Depending on the size and complexity, installing DAS in a warehouse or distribution center can take between 4 and 16 weeks, with additional time if coordination with carriers to bring signal sources on-site is necessary.

We can plan for expansion from the start. Tell us about expected additions so we can account for them in the initial design.

Depending on the platform and available capacity, expansion may involve additional remote units, antennas and cabling. Connecting another building may also require fiber and suitable pathways. We check supported frequency bands, signal-source capacity and equipment limits before confirming which parts of the existing system can be reused.

Yes. We design public safety DAS for the radio systems used by first responders. This serves a different purpose from cellular DAS for employees’ phones.

We work with your local fire code official and the relevant radio-system authority to confirm the coverage, equipment, power and testing requirements that apply to your building. The proposal identifies the public safety scope separately, including any required acceptance testing.
