The expanded Honeywell portfolio includes high power 5W BDAs and Fiber DAS systems; PSC/Digital Fiber DAS with redundancy support; and Digital 700/800 MHz BDAs with an easy-to-use assisted wizard providing automatic calibration features. The portfolio includes a 'No Noise' performance that reduces uplink noise and potentially harmful interference to public safety radios, helping to keep communications clear between first responder teams on the ground and in the building to better support their safety.
According to a 2017
'It's critical for first responders to stay connected with each other when responding to an emergency - not only so they know how to better respond to the situation but to also provide better protection to those who protect us,' said
Key benefits of the new Honeywell in-building communications solutions include:
Complies with almost any jurisdictional requirements: adheres to the latest code requirements for Emergency Responder Communication Enhancement Systems (ERCES) and is UL2524 2nd Edition listed. The portfolio supports all major public safety spectrum bands, including VHF, UHF, 700 MHz,
Enhances in-building radio frequency for first responders: can provide 100% in-building radio coverage, exceeding the latest standards for emergency communications, including optimal two-way radio signal strength to first responders in hard-to-reach areas of a building.
Increases flexibility of a building's ERCES system: offers versatility in frequency selection, power output (27dBm to 37dBm), wide band filters (up to 4BWA) single or dual band, and options with Class A and/or Class B, providing solutions that do not require rip and replacement for upgrades or changes in jurisdiction requirements, as well as configurations that allow the products to be integrated with fire alarm systems.
Complies with Buy American Act: meets the definition of Domestic Construction Material under the Buy American Act.
'Preserving proper communication between first responders in buildings is paramount in an emergency,' said
The Honeywell BDA and Fiber DAS products are available through several Honeywell brands, including NOTIFIER, Honeywell Farenhyt Series,
