Hello! My name is Bill Bushong and I'm with Gyver Networks.
You may be watching this video because of our reputation as the wireless experts.
Our engineers here specialize in many different forms of wireless communications,
from enterprise grade access points that drive medical facilities, to powerful radios that will connect multiple buildings over miles of terrain.
But the focus of this video, and a form of wireless that touches almost all of us, is the cellphone.
Today, the cellphone has become invaluable in so many different fields.
Doctors, patients, first responders, and so many others expect coverage in every corner of their hospital.
Employees of every sized company, small and large, need to communicate while walking within the building.
However, building construction as it is, and the increasing cost of cell towers
for carriers has made this an escalating and frustrating problem.
In large arenas such as football stadiums and concert halls,
local towers get quickly overwhelmed by an influx of fans or participants downloading video, talking to others, or updating their social pages' status.
What can be done to provide the signal needed to power all these applications?
That is where Gyver Networks comes in.
Let's take just one scenario:
Imagine a building in an area that has decent cell phone coverage.
From outside, you can download your email, check your stocks, and carry on a crystal clear conversation.
Now, as you walk towards the building, your cell phone signal starts decreasing.
No problem, though; you are still connected.
But then you walk into the front lobby and, unfortunately, the same building materials that are being used these days to make the building more energy efficient,
also have a negative impact on cell phone signal reception.
Higher frequency carriers such as Sprint, T-Mobile and others see the effects immediately:
choppy audio and eventually a dropped call.
Lower frequency carriers such as Verizon and AT&T hang in there a little longer as you walk
into the core of the building, but eventually the same fate comes over them.
Now, here is a little-known fact about cell phones:
Even if your cell phone hangs on to a weak signal from the tower, your cell phone now has to try extra hard to keep holding on to that signal.
In trying to stay connected to that weak signal, your phone is going to have to increase its power
to try and compensate.
You may even have noticed this when you have low signal:
your phone actually gets hot in your hand, and your battery dies more quickly.
That is your phone running at full power, trying to talk back to the cell phone tower.
So how do you fix this problem? Let's look at the steps.
First, we would take a snapshot of the current wireless environment.
A quick survey would be performed to determine current coverage and possible locations for internal antennas.
Now, some buildings will require full coverage, from front door to back.
However, we tailor each solution based on your needs and budget.
Second, we gather the square footage calculations, locations of surrounding towers,
your needs, and building construction.
Third, since our solutions must cover everything from a small office environment all the way up to, say, a large airport,
we regularly need multiple products and solutions available to us.
So we have partnered with the industry leaders in this technology
so we can provide solutions that can run cell signal over Ethernet, fiber optic cables, and conventional coaxial cable.
Now, a logical question is, which carriers do you actually want inside the building?
You see, the products we use have filters and antennas
tuned to certain frequencies. We need to know which carrier or carriers you want inside the building,
such as Verizon, AT&T or Sprint, and technologies you want to be able to utilize as well,
such as 3G, 4G, and LTE.
It may all sound scary, but don't worry, we can help you make these decisions.
Now, armed with all this information, Gyver Networks will present you with an entire package that outlines all the details just mentioned,
with the associated cost to purchase the hardware, and our quote to install.
Gyver Networks has an internal installation team for many of our solutions and certified wiring
partners to implement enterprise solutions.
We can even work with your existing and trusted wiring contractor.
Now of course, situations and needs vary greatly.
However, we are confident that we will improve your location's signal strength, client data speeds, call quality, and cell phone battery life for those inside the building.
Gyver Networks will do whatever it takes to meet your expectations.
