BDA/DAS
BDA / DAS Solutions for Life Safety Communication
Stay Connected. Stay Safe.
In an emergency, clear, reliable communication can be the difference between life and death. At Intelligent Fire Systems & Solutions, we provide expert design, installation, and maintenance of Bi-Directional Amplifier (BDA) and Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS)—mission-critical components of modern fire and life safety systems.
Why BDA / DAS Systems Are Essential
Firefighters and first responders rely on two-way radio communication to coordinate life-saving efforts inside buildings. But concrete, steel, and low-E glass in modern construction can block or weaken radio signals—putting lives at risk.
That’s where BDA/DAS systems come in:
- Bi-Directional Amplifiers (BDAs) capture weak radio signals and amplify them throughout a building.
- Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) distribute that signal evenly and reliably, especially in hard-to-reach areas like stairwells, basements, parking structures, and mechanical rooms.
Without a compliant BDA/DAS system, your building may fail fire code inspections, risk delayed emergency response, or be in violation of local and national requirements like NFPA 72, IFC, and FCC regulations.
How We Help
At Intelligent Fire, we understand that no two buildings are alike—and neither are their communication challenges. That’s why we offer turnkey solutions from assessment to final testing, tailored to your facility’s unique needs.
Our Services Include:
- Site Surveys & Signal Testing
- Code-Compliant Design & Engineering
- Installation of BDA/DAS Equipment
- AHJ Coordination & Final Inspections
- Annual Testing, Monitoring & Maintenance
- Upgrades for Code or Technology Changes
We work closely with AHJs (Authorities Having Jurisdiction) and RF engineers to ensure your system meets the latest fire code and radio coverage mandates, all while minimizing project disruption and maximizing system reliability.
Where BDA/DAS Systems Are Critical
BDA/DAS is required or recommended in many building types, including:
- Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities
- High-Rise and Mid-Rise Buildings
- Schools & Universities
- Airports & Transit Hubs
- Warehouses & Industrial Complexes
- Stadiums, Arenas & Convention Centers
- Government & Emergency Response Facilities
