Outdoor DAS

ExteNet Systems enhances outdoor coverage and capacity with distributed networks for use by wireless carriers. ExteNet specializes in providing high performance distributed networks in challenging outdoor environments.  

The installation of distributed networks is well suited for areas with high capacity requirements, challenging topography or communities with zoning requirements designed to maintain a certain aesthetic environment. Distributed networks utilize discrete, minimally sized equipment and antennas that are typically installed on existing poles and streetlights, with fiber optic cable attached to each pole aerially or underground.

Key Benefits of ExteNet Systems Network Technology

ExteNet’s distributed networks for use by wireless carriers support multiple carriers, frequency bands and technologies including GSM, CDMA, UMTS and LTE and WiFi. The technology:

• Improves the quality of service in areas where traditional macro sites may not meet community zoning requirements or are less effective in meeting coverage and high capacity requirements.
• Allows for rapid provisioning of additional capacity, technologies and new services by adding equipment at the centrally located network Hub Site and/or making minor modifications at the individual node sites.
• Reduces interference across the network. The interference picture improves because nodes that are transmitting the RF signal from the BTS Hub are typically 30-40 feet from ground level. This low transmitting height provides natural signal isolation and helps reduce interference. Power levels are also reduced, which further minimizes the potential for interference.
• Increases mobile battery life, improves the utilization of spectrum and boosts data throughput.
• Helps solve the challenges associated with backhaul and transport by centrally locating BTS resources.
