Introduction to DMR
Let me introduce you to DMR Digital Mobile Radio, often referred to as DMR an international digital radio standard developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). What makes DMR stand out from some of the other digital modes is that it utilizes TDMA (Time-Division Multiple Access) to divide a single frequency into 2 distinct “channels” or time slots. By doing this, you can have two conversations going on at the SAME TIME, using one frequency. Advantages of DMR Doubling of capacity in [...]
White Paper: The Lightning “Event”
How Lightning Events Interfere With Communications What is a Lightning Event? A lightning "event" is an occasion where lightning affects communications equipment, either through a direct strike to the equipment, or as a side effect of an indirect strike. They can cause significant (and sometimes irreparable damage) to towers, antennas, and other equipment, which results in costly replacements and downtime. Why Tower Sites Are Damaged In a Lightning Event When it comes to communications equipment, tower sites are struck by lightning more often than any other site. [...]
DAS 101
What is a DAS System? The acronym DAS stands for Distributed Antenna System, a network used to supply RF Signal (Cellular and two-way radio for Public Safety) in large buildings like schools, campuses, offices, convention centres, stadiums and arenas, underground parking garages and transit tunnels. DAS is an essential system since the construction of these structures involves materials like drywall, concrete, and in some cases tinted windows- all which can prevent the RF signal from penetrating the framework. DAS system is also important as the RF signal can also be affected by different seasons; during spring the [...]

How Signal Boosters Can Help You Work Remotely
How Home Booster Kits Can Help You Work Remotely A home signal booster is a system that works by pulling in weak signal, boosting it, and then rebroadcasting it inside the required area. Most signal boosters are a three-part system: The Outside Antenna to capture weak cell signal. The Amplifier to boost the weak signal. The Inside Antenna to rebroadcast the enhanced signal inside your home or car. Allcan's 3 Most Popular Boosters for Working Remotely: When remote working became a way of life last year, many individuals learned that the cell signal [...]
