How to Deploy DAS More Effectively

Need help with distributed antenna system (DAS) design and implementation? Heading to DAS & Small Cells Congress next week in New Orleans? If you answered “yes” to both questions, make sure you get to CommScope’s workshop on Monday afternoon, June 8. The workshop will provide tips for deploying DAS more effectively and with better performance. Karri Reddy explains more in today’s blog post.

DAS-Congress-2015Time to market has always been a major challenge in distributed antenna systems (DAS). Customers expect great performing systems deployed in a limited amount of time. Deadline pressure sometimes compels engineers to take shortcuts and commission the system at less than optimal performance. The result can be degraded quality of service for customers and increased inefficiency for the network operator.

Sound like a familiar problem? If you are an engineer, system integrator or installation professional in the DAS field faced with such challenges, I have something to help. I will be co-hosting a workshop with DAS experts from CommScope and Verizon Wireless at the DAS & Small Cells Congress next week about “Design and Optimization Techniques for DAS Systems.”

My presentation will focus on DAS design standards and guidelines and how a few specific techniques can make a huge difference for deploying systems effectively. The workshop will include advice for supporting high-number sector deployments and managing customer expectations. Those who attend will get tips for deploying DAS more effectively and with better performance.

The pre-conference workshop is on Monday, June 8 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m at The Roosevelt New Orleans Hotel. The first half of the session will cover the above topics. The second half will focus on a project management case study of NRG Stadium in Houston.
