What Is a DAS and Why Does It Matter?
A Distributed Antenna System (DAS) is a network of strategically placed antennas that extends wireless coverage into areas where signals from outside towers simply can’t reach. Thick concrete, steel, and complex building layouts often block cell signals in large structures such as hospitals, office buildings, data centers, stadiums, and warehouses. DAS solves this problem.
Using fiber optics, coaxial cable, and Ethernet connections, DAS links antennas to a central hub that distributes strong and consistent signals throughout the building. The result? Reliable cellular, 4G, LTE, 5G, and Wi-Fi performance even in stairwells, basements, elevators, or other hard-to-reach areas.
Beyond convenience, DAS is vital for safety, productivity, and compliance. Industries like healthcare, higher education, transportation, and manufacturing depend on strong wireless networks to protect people, keep operations running, and meet regulatory requirements.

Public Safety DAS: Built for Compliance and Protection
When first responders are on the scene, crystal-clear communication is non-negotiable. That’s why RFE Communications designs and installs Emergency Responder Radio Coverage Systems (ERRCS) that meet both New Jersey and national fire codes, including NFPA standards.
Our public safety DAS solutions provide reliable radio coverage across your property, enabling firefighters, police officers, and EMTs to communicate effectively in critical situations. We also integrate DAS Alert, a system that connects your fire alarm with enhanced responder communications. This ensures alarms become actionable signals for faster, more informed emergency responses.
With engineered precision, our DAS Alert and ADRF DAS solutions are built to minimize interference, reduce signal loss, and maintain long-term reliability. From antenna design and cabling layouts to power balancing and compliance testing, every detail is carefully managed to keep your building both safe and code-compliant.
