Verizon: In-Building DAS Philosophy
ADRF CONFIDENTIAL
Verizon: In or Out?
What criteria do I use to determine whether I will proceed?
With the exception of certain Large Venues, overall costs and expenses play a key role in
determination
If the venue (enterprise, public, commercial) value proposition satisfies the network
capacity demands or sales driven strategic initiatives
I.e., eliminate costly and resource constrained deployment of temp sites for
recurring special events
I.e., satisfy national sales accounts that have regional assets and account lines
Who will pay for BTS (Verizon or Enterprise); do I have to pay for BTS
space/power/HVAC?
Case by case, but with dedicated RF sources, VZW strives to ensure a consistent
customer experience often times owning the equipment and ancillary supporting
infrastructure
This allows VZW to maintain equipment and integrity of the customer experience
Whats my approach to backhaul and when/how do I provision for it?
VZW works with local LECs for backhaul provisioning and assumes responsibility of
maintaining integrity of the customer experience
ADRF CONFIDENTIAL
Verizon: Design Requirements
Once Ive determined that I will provide or plug into the DAS, what are the
technical specifications that Verizon will require in the DAS?
Understanding the goal of the project will shape the direction of key design parameters
I.e., capacity offload, coverage issues
Key technical components
Determination of existing Macro Interference
Benchmarking of existing 700/AWS/1900/850 bands
Is LTE 700 on separate antenna network for independent optimization
Is LTE AWS on separate antenna network for independent optimization
Minimum required to meet advertised speed 5-12MB DL; 2-5MB UL
Different regions will vary dependent on existing network topography
Min RSRP value assures service levels will be safe guarded against future
interference source (ie. new cell, small cell deployments)
Macro dominance ensures high signal quality for faster throughput
700Mhz the ubiquitous carrier with AWS as an underlay
MIMO vs SISO
Case by case with MIMO designs intended primarily for high usage
environments
ADRF CONFIDENTIAL
Large Venue vs Office space vs Hospitality/Hospitals
Verizon: Paperwork
Once Ive determined that I will provide or plug into the DAS,
what are the major milestones/timetables with regard to
finance, regulatory, legal? [e.g., environmental, SHPO, FAA]
Typically the agreement is the longest lead time

Survey of DAS Business
Models: Who Pays?

Group, AT&T

What Comprises a DAS Network?
54 2014 AT&T Intellectual Property. All rights reserved. AT&T and the AT&T logo are trademarks of AT&T Intellectual Property.
Who Pays?
Advantages:
Control of the DAS network as an asset
Potential for customization (applications, greetings,
special alerts, configurations)
Venue defines the coverage areas, wireless carriers and
services desired
Venue has the option to allow their chosen 3rd party to
manage, monitor, maintain and repair the DAS
Disadvantages:
Initial capital expense ties up working capital for other projects
Venue is responsible for the cost of maintenance and utilities
Venue may recover some, but typically not all costs from the wireless
carriers
Requires Rebroadcast Agreement execution with each wireless carrier
Design, maintenance & operations of the DAS network is not the core
business of the Venue
56 2014 AT&T Intellectual Property. All rights reserved. AT&T and the AT&T logo are trademarks of AT&T Intellectual Property.
Third Party Neutral Host
Advantages:
Capital largely supported by the 3rd Party
Risk mitigated and taken on by 3rd Party
Control of the DAS network can be dictated by the
commercial agreement
Network Operation Center (NOC) & Carrier relationships
managed by 3rd Party
Disadvantages:
DAS network control limited to terms of commercial agreement with 3rd
Party
Anchor (first) carrier strongly influences the networks final design
Lack of an Enterprise Carrier relationship may limit obligation for the
carriers to expand the network at a later date
Generally, locks up Venue for 3-9 month period while 3rd Party markets
the venue to carriers
Some 3rd Parties may require two wireless carriers to join prior to
commencing construction of the network
57 2014 AT&T Intellectual Property. All rights reserved. AT&T and the AT&T logo are trademarks of AT&T Intellectual Property.
Wireless Carrier
Advantages:
Improves the coverage & capacity for at least one
carrier
Relatively low capital requirement
Relatively quick agreement and deployment
Relatively low cost of ownership
Disadvantages:
If a single wireless carrier solution is installed, another wireless carrier
may need to install a parallel network adding to potential operations
disruption, cost and negative aesthetics
Potential for a contractual agreement for services, capital and/or in-kind
infrastructure use from the venue
Control of the network is managed by the wireless carrier
