FAQ
What is a Bi-Directional Amplifier system, and when do I need it?
A Bi-Directional Amplifier system is a signal-boosting solution used to enhance coverage in buildings for public safety radios. Large commercial buildings, such as hospitals, schools, sports arenas, and manufacturing plants, often require a system installation, including Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS), to comply with local building codes or Emergency Radio Coverage (ERRC) code.
How can a BDA communication system improve public safety in my building?
These amplifier systems ensure effective two-way communication between first responders in the event of an emergency, especially in the case of BDAs for radio communication. If something happens at your business that requires first responders to navigate areas of low coverage like stairwells and hallways having a BDA can save lives. As to cellular systems, these will ensure your employees have effective communication and consistent coverage so your business continues running at peak efficiency.
Does RFE Communications provide customized solutions for my business?
Yes, RFE Communications specializes in surveying, analyzing, planning, installing, and testing BDA communication systems tailored to meet your specific needs. We can identify coverage gaps in hard-to-reach areas of your building and provide customized solutions to ensure reliable communication throughout.
Can a Bi-Directional Amplifier system be installed by anyone?
Typically hiring a contractor both certified with the FCC and possessing a GROL certification is the best practice, as they are going to be able to survey the location and do all necessary testing of the install once complete to ensure compliance.
What certifications and licensing should my business be aware of when installing a BDA system?
It’s essential to ensure that your business is operating within applicable statutes such as the International Fire Code (IFC) and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the FCC Network Protection Standard. RFE Communications is well-versed in these regulations and can assist in ensuring your business remains compliant.
How do I know if I need a Bi-Directional Amplifier system for my facility?
Typically all new constructions, and buildings with one floor below grade or two floors above grade all require a BDA system. Exact requirements are determined by your local county Fire Marshall. The standards by which they typically operate and determine requirements are set by organizations like the NFPA and the IFC.
Are there are more than one kind of these systems?
Yes, there are actually two types of systems that provide completely different functions. The first are BDA systems for two-way radios. These are used to ensure communications with first responders in case of emergency. A cellular BDA is used to improve the wireless cell signal in a location. Since each does an important but totally separate function most businesses will have one of each system installed.
