Wireless Densification Is Here

Demand for mobile data is increasing greater than the supply of wireless infrastructure, with about 80 percent of all data use originating or terminating indoors. Mobile users are demanding access to quality accessible networks. To enable this, carriers need to bring the antennas and radios closer to their customers, into buildings and other venues: Campuses, Stadiums/Arenas, Healthcare, Commercial Office Space, Retail/Malls, Hospitality, Government, Transportation/Airports, Outdoor Venues & more.

What Is DAS?

Distributed Antenna Systems

DAS is short for Distributed Antenna Systems that distribute radio frequency (RF) signals from a central point to antennas located throughout a facility to provide seamless wireless coverage and capacity. Used in large buildings, structures, campus-type settings and outdoor venues, DAS networks can accommodate a large number of people and a variety of frequency bands and technologies. DAS enhances the signals of wireless carriers such as AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon.

What Are Small Cells?

Small Cells

Small Cells are low-powered radio access nodes that operate in a licensed and unlicensed spectrum that have a range of ten meters to several hundred meters.

We Design & Build What the Providers Want

Wireless service providers are looking for partners that anticipate their infrastructure needs and can remain flexible with build times and design. The market is changing; today a venue or property might only have interest from one carrier, but tomorrow many carriers may want to join. We build to accommodate current and future demand.

We Have the Capital to Invest

Carriers can be constrained by capital budgets, limiting the advance of wireless infrastructure. SBA eases network deployment and facilitates enhanced wireless capacity by aiding the carrier with capital. SBA negotiates directly with wireless service providers and offers flexible funding options to property owners.
