Jacob K. Javits Convention Center Upgrades DAS to Deliver Better Cellular Connectivity for Large Events

A DAS works by strategically placing a network of smaller antennas throughout a structure. These antennas improve coverage and capacity in areas where large numbers of users gather. Instead of relying on a single outdoor cell tower’s signal to penetrate walls and crowded indoor spaces, the DAS brings the signal closer to users. This network architecture strengthens cellular signal, while increasing the number of users and the amount of wireless traffic the network can handle.

The benefits become especially apparent during major conventions, trade shows, and expos where faster speeds and a more consistent mobile experience is expected by attendees and event organizers alike. With these latest enhancements, the venue is better equipped to support these demands.
