ERRCS & Elevators
A recent NY Times article caught my attention: “The American Elevator Explains Why Housing Costs Have Skyrocketed”. (See below for article link) The author is the founder and executive director of the Center for Building in North America. One conclusion he makes in...
In-Building Wireless Solutions (IBWS): What we do.
Previous blogs have focused primarily on the nuances of Cellular DAS and ERRCS. For those of you who’ve read it, thank you: for those of you who’ve hit the delete key, I get it, you’re busy. But this one is about explaining what we do and how we might differ from...
Comparing the Challenges of Emergency Responder Radio Communication Systems (ERRCS) and Cellular Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS)
Emergency Responder Radio Communication Systems (ERRCS) and Cellular Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) are essential for ensuring reliable communication within buildings. ERRCS is designed for emergency responders, while Cellular DAS enhances cell phone coverage for...
Wi-Fi Calling Versus Cellular DAS
Should a building owner or facilities manager ever consider installing a Wi-Fi network for Wi-Fi calling in lieu of a Cellular Distributed Antenna System (DAS) when the cellular signal is poor? The short answer: No! We could end this here but then what then would be...
A Simple Guide to ERRCS Process and Components
One challenge to the design and installation of an Emergency Responder Radio Communication System (ERRCS) is that the process and codes required to implement vary by jurisdiction. This is one of the fundamental differences between an ERRCS and a Cellular Distributed...
Common ERRCS Myths
Emergency Responder Radio Coverage Systems (ERRCS) are critical in ensuring that first responders have reliable communication capabilities within buildings during emergencies. Despite their importance, several myths and misconceptions about ERRCS exist. Here are some...
ERRCS in 2024
Emergency Responder Radio Communication Systems (ERRCS) are essential for ensuring that first responders can communicate effectively in all areas of a building during emergencies. The prevalence of ERRCS in the United States has been growing over the last five years,...
Cellular DAS Versus ERRCS
We’ve maintained for some time that Cellular Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) and Emergency Responder Radio Communication Systems (ERRCS) or ERCES (…Communication Enhancement…) are the flip side of the same public safety coin: Cellular DAS is critical to make 911...
