In-building wireless coverage has become a necessity, but the selection and installation of these systems are far from plug-and-play. IBW Advisors helps our clients make informed and value-driven decisions about procuring and deploying future-ready, right-sized and cost-effective in-building distributed antenna systems (DAS) that are enterprise and user friendly.
IBW Advisors can structure a consulting package that includes all or part of the tasks associated with deploying a distributed antenna system (DAS) or public safety radio network.
About
IBW Advisors founder Mike Altman has 18 years of experience facilitating the turn-key deployment of cellular and public safety distributed antenna systems (DAS). The projects he has been involved with have provided enhanced in-building wireless coverage and capacity to venues ranging from executive residences to NFL and MLB stadiums, hospitals, corporate offices and college campuses. Mike created IBW Advisors to help building owners navigate the challenges associated with designing, procuring and implementing these systems.
“To procure, deliver, deploy and commission an in-building system is not an easy task. There are numerous parties involved including the carriers, manufacturers, systems integrators, REITs, and local officials to name a few. Having an individual that understands all of the nuances and relationships of these parties is critical to completing a successful project. There is no better person to do this than Mike.”
