Can a Huaptec Cover a Larger Area?

Can Huaptec Cover Large Areas?

What is a small-cell DAS?

Yes, in general it can if there is a strong signal outside the building.

A 2 way or 3 way splitter can be connected to the Huaptec amplifier using a jumper cable. Cable is then run to additional antennas or APs in other parts of the property. These antennas rebroadcast the signal into those rooms and help extend coverage.

Typical Coverage

A Huaptec system is mainly designed for open plan spaces and in ideal conditions can cover up to around 300m². In real installations, internal walls reduce signal strength because they absorb the mobile signal.

Signal loss increases depending on the wall type:

  • Old cut stone walls
  • Standard plasterboard stud walls
  • Insulated plasterboard
  • Block walls

Extending Coverage with a DAS

Where walls are causing major signal loss, coverage can often be improved by adding a small DAS system.

The DAS uses splitters, connectors and cable runs to move the amplified signal into additional rooms or areas of the building.

Important Setup Information

Splitters, connectors and cable all create some additional loss, so this setup only works properly where the external signal is already very strong. If the outside signal is weak, it is usually better to continue using the standard internal antenna setup.

When connecting to a DAS, it is important to press the SET button until the mode light changes from green to blue. This disables the internal antenna output and sends the signal fully to the DAS antennas.

With the correct setup, this can significantly improve signal coverage in rooms that would otherwise have poor mobile reception.

Compare Which Huaptec is Best for You

Choosing the right Huaptec system depends on the size of the building, the strength of the outdoor signal and how many areas need coverage. Smaller open plan spaces may only require a single indoor antenna setup, while larger properties or buildings with thick internal walls may benefit from a DAS configuration with multiple antennas.
