Kaelus Launches DAS Interface Solutions Providing Clean RF Power Management

CENTENNIAL, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Building on its market-leading competence in designing high-performance RF solutions, Kaelus has launched a new range of low PIM power management solutions to support Distributed Antenna System (DAS) networks.

“Kaelus’ heritage in PIM instruments and high-performance network optimization products will ensure an industry-leading clean RF path to the DAS array irrespective of the number of combined carriers or power level.”

The Kaelus DAS Interface Solution (DIS) unit was designed to provide the power management interface between an in-building RF source (BTS or repeater) and SISO or MIMO DAS head end.

Wireless service providers are faced with deploying and operating indoor and outdoor DAS networks to enhance their end-users’ experience by providing better coverage and greater data rate capacity. When working with systems which support multiple providers with rich data content, it is essential to ensure a “clean” RF environment to minimize signal distortion while providing efficient power management to ensure product reliability.

“The market demands better products and a greater understanding of the management of DAS environments and Kaelus is responding to this need,” said Jacqui McLaughlin, President of Kaelus. “Kaelus’ heritage in PIM instruments and high-performance network optimization products will ensure an industry-leading clean RF path to the DAS array irrespective of the number of combined carriers or power level.”

The Kaelus DIS is currently available in eight of the major network bands and can be customized based on specific customer requirements.
