Indoor Cellular Buyers’ Guide

Indoor cellular connectivity has become core infrastructure, but evaluating solutions can be complex.

This guide provides a structured way to evaluate indoor cellular, focusing on understanding requirements, comparing technology approaches, and making informed decisions based on long-term needs.

You’ll learn:

• Indoor cellular approaches: An overview of Wi-Fi calling, distributed antenna systems (DAS), and newer architectures, including how they differ.
• How to refine your requirements: Key factors like building footprint, user demand, and spectrum availability.
• Architectural tradeoffs: How different solutions compare across performance, complexity, and scalability.
• Evaluation frameworks: Ways to assess deployment timelines, costs, carrier contracts, and ownership.
• Stakeholder alignment: Considerations for coordinating across IT, facilities, and leadership.
