F.A.Q.

We’ve answered some of the most common questions about school wireless connectivity here, but if you don’t see your question, just ask and we’ll be in touch.

Why does my school need wireless connectivity systems?

Unlike residential homes schools are often too large and spread out to maintain a consistent wireless signal in all areas.  This, combined with increased interference from technologies used in schools means having a cellular connectivity system is essential to maintaining your school’s learning environment and safety.

What types of school wireless installations do you offer?

We offer everything from wireless internet systems to connectivity systems to network two-way radios, RFID systems, and DAS public safety systems as well.  Boosters, repeaters, and wireless antennas, RFE Communications has all the wireless systems your school may need!

Why do schools have trouble with signal distribution in the first place?

Schools tend to be spread out over a relatively large area compared to even other commercial type  buildings.  Schools often have buildings outside the main structure like facilities for sports and portable classrooms, as well as the need for connectivity in the area surrounding the school such as for crossing guards and busses. Along with the large square footage to be covered schools also have a large amount of wireless and other electronic devices which increase the amount of interference with wireless signals, and also many more hallways than even other commercial style buildings, which increase interference.

Does weak reception drain cell phone batteries faster?

Yes. When you have adequate signal, phones don’t use as much power to send and receive data. It has to use more energy when the signal is weak.
