Radio Frequency Systems - RF Wireless Indoor Solutions (WINS)

Radio Frequency Systems (RFS) is proud to unveil its new scalable, flexible and modular ClearFill suite of wireless indoor solutions. This range of products includes cost-effective Radio Frequency (RF) solutions - from ‘plug-and-play’ systems to fully engineered systems.

WIRELESS RADIO FREQUENCY COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

In support of escalating demand for wireless coverage inside buildings and tunnels, Radio Frequency Systems (RFS) has developed ClearFill - an innovative suite of end-to-end Wireless INdoor Solutions (WINS). This breakthrough solution offers flexibility and cost-effectiveness.

Whether the application is a small private enterprise, a major university or airport campus, or a metro tunnel, ClearFill is guaranteed to deliver the ideal solution.

PASSIVE AND ACTIVE RF TECHNOLOGIES

"The mobility age for communications has well and truly arrived," said Peter Raabe, RFS director for product management for WINS. "This means a growing number of buildings, such as airports, complexes and tunnels, are demanding wireless coverage for commercial cellular services, safety radio, Wi-Fi, WiMAX and even mobile TV."

The ClearFill suite comprises a rich mix of passive and active Radio Frequency (RF) technologies that includes new RFS options for both harnessing and distributing the RF signal.

CLEARFILL WIRELESS INDOOR SOLUTIONS

On a component level, the ClearFill suite is fully modular, with the various elements integrated to form four main system configurations: ClearFill Air, ClearFill Line, ClearFill Boost and ClearFill Space.

• ClearFill Air - basic indoor coverage for small buildings or very short tunnels is achieved using an off-air repeater and antenna assembly
• ClearFill Line - purely passive distribution solution founded on a radiating cable or distributed antenna network, ideal for small buildings and short tunnels
• ClearFill Boost - in-line Bi-Directional Amplifiers (BDA) boost the signal along a length of radiating cable or feeder cable to achieve coverage of longer tunnels and larger buildings
• ClearFill Space - a truly hybrid solution for midsize to large indoor complexes, or long tunnels, comprising fibre-fed repeaters with RF converters to drive the signal through the otherwise passive RF distribution network of radiating cable and/or distributed antennas

RF COVERAGE OF CONFINED AREAS

"One of the challenging aspects of in-building or in-tunnel wireless coverage is the multiplicity of parties driving network deployment - from network carriers to building owners to enterprise managers," said Raabe. "The ClearFill suite has been designed with this in mind – it has been designed to meet all needs of all parties, irrespective of the scale or sophistication of their requirements."
