Cellular Infrastructure & RF Communications

By adopting a DAS approach where localized antennas are placed in a small area rather than utilizing a single larger antenna that is a compromise for the wider coverage needed, you can minimize overshadowing and penetration losses since line-of-sight link is available more frequently.

With Houle’s reliable Distributed Antenna System that is fully compatible with numerous wireless vendors, you can receive seamless voice and data services to mobile devices. Our experienced team will install a network of relatively small antennas throughout your space that serve as repeaters to your building’s wireless coverage and connect with your wireless carrier’s base station either through fibre optic or coaxial cable. The antennas can be placed either indoors or outdoors to increase wireless signals and serve hard to reach areas such as hospitals, sporting venues, college and university campuses, shopping centres, airports, hotels, and more.
