Whenever you look on top of a building and see a number of smaller antenna joined together to form a large antenna, that is a distributed antenna system or DAS. To achieve a stronger network connection, telecommunication companies found a way to join together antennas to get a stronger wireless reception in areas of low connectivity known as dead zones. When it comes to the installation of DAS in your place of work sometimes it can be so hectic because you have to get authorization certificates from the telecommunications body and also from the city department. This means that you will have to hire a vendor who will install the DAS system for you. This article will provide you with some important factors that you should consider before choosing a DAS vendor.
The first factor you should consider before buying anything new is having a well planned budget of how various items and services cost. The reason for having a good budget is to make the process of purchasing goods easier and especially when it is telecommunication infrastructure which is known to be very expensive. So when it comes to choosing the best company to do your distributed antenna system installation, you must check the charges that each company is charging for a full installation. Finally, for you to complete drafting your budget, try to know how much they are selling the devices which will be required for the D.A.S installation.
Another consideration that you will need to focus on before selecting a company that deals with the installation of distributed antenna system, is the various services that they offer. Out there you may find some D.A.S installation companies which are offering more services and they are even charging less than the others. You might even find some companies charging for their after sales services while some do it for free like maintaining the system. Many D.A.S installation companies usually offer a 24/7 full support for their customers and others don’t do it.
Technology is a very important aspect when it comes to telecommunication, so before selecting a vendor, try to find out the kind of technology they are using. One of the fastest growing industries in the world right now is technology and sometimes people might find it hard to catch up with it.
Since such a scenario is inevitable, it is important to hire a D.A.S company that has really invested in the modern cutting edge technology when it comes to telecommunication devices. You may also find out that there are some companies which incorporate expansion or a chance for upgrade in their designs in case of a change in the technology.
