Implementing a neutral host DAS takes planning, coordination, and the right team to handle both. Installation and commissioning of a DAS infrastructure is multifaceted and requires the correct design to ensure all DAS elements, fiber/coax routing, antenna placements, and remote units are where they’re supposed to be. The fine tuning of the end-to-end continuity after PIM measurements and optical loss testing all also need to be taken into account. Bouchard’s expert DAS commissioning team has the experience to ensure you have the right system and that your project works for today with flexibility for the future.

Our project management team will assume full responsibility for the successful completion of your projects. We will design, plan, initiate, execute, monitor and control, and close the project.
