Grid-test results at Clawson Manor: a 51% failing benchmark brought to a 100% grid pass rate at acceptance by a four-day passive DAS install.
The challenge
Benchmark grid testing showed the 15-story high-rise failing emergency-responder coverage at just 51%, in the kind of building where first responders cannot afford a dead zone.
The solution
WZC performed the grid testing, then designed a passive DAS in iBwave and coordinated the plan directly with the AHJ. With the design approved, the crew installed the system in four days.
Four days from failing grid test to full compliance
