In-building coverage that carriers, fire marshals, and building owners all sign off on.
Blackhat Unwired designs and delivers distributed antenna systems and emergency responder radio coverage for hospitals, campuses, and large commercial buildings — engineered so every stakeholder, from the carrier to the AHJ, approves it once.
What we do
Building owners get one program covering both systems that keep a building connected and defensible — cellular coverage for tenants, and radio coverage for the people who respond when something goes wrong.
Cellular DAS design
Distributed antenna system design for in-building cellular coverage, from active carrier-grade systems to hybrid solutions like Cel-Fi Quatra, sized to the building’s real RF environment.
Emergency Responder Communications Enhancement Systems (ERCES)
Public safety DAS design engineered and coordinated directly with the fire marshal, so the system is approved on the merits — not sent back for rework.
Campus & multi-building programs
Coordinated DAS and ERCES design across an entire campus — hospitals, research facilities, and large commercial sites — as one program instead of building-by-building guesswork.
Equipment & vendor coordination
Sourcing and vetting DAS equipment and installation vendors, so the owner deals with one firm from design through buildout instead of managing subcontractors directly.
Built to clear the fire marshal the first time
An ERCES design carries more weight than a cellular DAS — it has to be reviewed and approved by the local fire marshal before it means anything. Blackhat Unwired treats that approval as part of the design, not a step tacked on afterward.
- Fire marshal & AHJ coordination built in
Every ERCES design is developed alongside the authority having jurisdiction, not submitted cold and hoped through. - One firm, one point of accountability
Design, equipment specification, and buildout oversight all run through Blackhat Unwired — the client never has to referee between vendors. - Complexity-aware design, not square-footage guesswork
Dense clinical and lab space gets engineered differently than open parking or mechanical areas — pricing and design effort follow the building, not a flat rate. - Backed by RF Design Services
For outdoor RF engineering, microwave backhaul, and regulatory work outside the building envelope, Blackhat works alongside RF Design Services.
How a project actually runs
Design, equipment, and approval are handled as one sequence, not three separate handoffs between the owner, a designer, and an installer.
