Zinwave Demonstrates Future-Proof DAS at Dubai Airport Show
May 4, 2016
System Delivers Public Safety and Cellular Service Plus Future-Proof Support Without Hardware Upgrades
Dallas, TX Zinwave, a global provider of wideband distributed network solutions for in-building wireless, today announced that it will showcase its UNItivity distributed wireless access solution (DAS) at the Airport Show 2016 being held on May 9-11 in Dicec, Dubai. In booth 4001, Zinwave will demonstrate the industry’s only DAS that supports all current cellular and public safety frequencies and can accommodate the addition of future services without the need for hardware upgrades.
UNItivity’s wideband architecture supports frequencies from 150 to 2700 MHz, providing access for any public safety or cellular frequency. In addition, UNItivity uses a streamlined design that includes just two components: a primary/secondary hub, and a thin, ceiling-mounted remote unit, so installation and maintenance is less expensive than with other, more complex DAS systems.
As an all-fiber system, Zinwave’s UNItivity DAS is an ideal solution for large facilities like airports because cabling can extend for more than a dozen kilometers while delivering uniformly high performance at each antenna location. UNItivity also delivers the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) because it natively handles a wide range of current and future cellular and public safety frequency bands, so expensive equipment upgrades aren’t needed when new bands go into service.
“Airport customers, employees, and first responders demand uniform, high-performance wireless services,” said John Spindler, vice president of marketing at Zinwave. “Our wideband, simplified DAS architecture delivers outstanding performance with the industry’s lowest TCO, making it the best choice for airports worldwide.”
