Radio Frequency Systems has enhanced its portfolio of passive RF components with an entire suite of new products to provide a full range of solutions for all wireless in-building commercial and mission-critical communications requirements. The new products complement their comprehensive line of low loss RF feeder cables and jumpers for DAS and include passive DAS components such as couplers, power splitters, tappers and hybrid combiners.
RFS’ comprehensive, passive DAS product portfolio enables RF wideband, multi-band, multi-technology, and multi-operator support. It provides the ability for future systemic shifts between operators or frequency bands to support any changes in macro network providers and/or technologies, including re-banding/re-farming of spectrum. All RFS components deliver high-quality and highly reliable in-building wireless systems for both commercial and mission-critical applications. RF cables combine flexibility and strength with low attenuation and high power ratings; non-cable components maintain overall system and PIM performance; and RF-over-fiber repeaters can be used to re-amplify signals across long distances.
Meeting the coverage and capacity demands of in-building wireless services, every passive DAS solution must be purpose-built for specific business objectives, application requirements, and physical environments. RFS, which had previously committed to providing professional services for these types of applications, now offers the expanded product portfolio to aid customers in deploying these future-proof solutions. Comprehensive RFS services and solutions ─ which are optimized for cost and performance ─ assist customers through the entirety of the design and deployment stages, with the added potential to provide a turnkey solution, if desired.
This DAS product line expansion enables RFS to better deliver all of the capabilities needed to give people greater access to wireless services indoors with maximum flexibility and optimum electrical performance. All frequency bands are now covered including mission-critical (380-520MHz), commercial wireless (698-2700MHz), broadband and ultra-broadband (380-2700MHz) in 2G, 3G, 4G LTE and TETRA. Mission-critical and commercial communications can be configured to function over one broadband network.
In addition to a broad offering of frequency bands, RFS’ hybrid combiners and hybrid couplers can combine multiple signals within the same wireless band in a common cable. Directional couplers (5dB, 6dB, 7dB, 8dB, 10dB, 15dB, 20dB and 30dB) uniformly distribute RF signals for unequal splitting to compensate for cable loss at higher floors.
Each of the updated passive components have undergone the same rigorous testing as all other RFS products, upholding the company’s high quality standards. RF distribution via coaxial cable such as RFS’ CELLFLEX® cable offers loss reduction, and power splitters evenly split input signals with minimal reflections or loss. These passive DAS products share harmonized PIM specifications (-150dBc) to maintain this high level of repeatability and reliability of services.
The new line of passive DAS components are now available worldwide.
