Public Safety DAS
Providing in-building communications for our first responders is our top priority
What is Public Safety DAS?
Public Safety DAS utilizing BDA technology provides enhanced two-way radio service via an antenna system, ensuring first responders maintain wireless communications during emergencies.
Code Compliance
99% coverage in critical areas and 95% in all other spaces. JET ensures your building meets all mandatory regulations and code requirements.
Expert Installation
Our certified technicians handle everything from preliminary analysis to system monitoring, ensuring optimal performance and compliance.
Understanding Public Safety DAS
A BDA (Bi-Directional Amplifier) system is an in-building communication system that brings wireless signals into the structure from outside, amplifies those signals with a signal booster, and then evenly distributes the amplified signals via a Distributed Antenna System (DAS).
Code calls for 99% coverage in critical areas such as the Fire Command Room, Fire Pump Room, stairwells and elevators. For all other spaces, the coverage required is 95%.
Important Notice
Almost every city and county in the US has enacted local ordinances and codes making in-building coverage for first responders mandatory. With these regulations, every new building must meet a minimum level of first responder communication reliability as a condition for occupancy.
It is the responsibility of the building's owner or operator to have their building tested by a certified Public Safety DAS professional. If needed, they must have a system installed and ensure it passes all code specifications.
Why Choose JET Public Safety DAS?
JET's FirstNet compatible and scalable systems are trusted by the professionals that depend on them when responding to an emergency. Our team of Public Safety DAS engineers will install a system that complies with the first responder radio coverage requirements.
There's good reason that in many areas BDA's are now a CODE DRIVEN REQUIREMENT. During 9/11, firemen and police officers couldn't communicate properly inside the World Trade Center. This triggered changes to the IFC and NFPA code requirements to greatly improve communications for first responders ensuring their radios work wherever they go.
