Keep Your Data Secure with Strong Cellular Connectivity
July 20, 2017
Estimated Reading Time: 2 minutesModern consumers demand connectivity at all times. What’s the first thing most of us do when we sit down at a restaurant or walk into a hotel room? Check for a Wi-Fi network to connect to. The decision makes sound financial sense. Why waste precious data when you can surf the internet and send text messages and emails over free Wi-Fi?If there is a Wi-Fi network available at these establishments, there’s a good chance it doesn’t require a password or other login credentials for access. Even more, you may never really understand how the establishment’s network is operated and what systems may be logging your traffic activity. These unsecured connections leave your valuable data vulnerable to malicious users intent on stealing it.Many internet users understand these risks but choose to connect to Wi-Fi anyway. They do so without asking a vital question: should I use my cellular data plan instead of Wi-Fi? The answer is almost certainly yes. However, the speed and security of that data plan is reliant on a strong cellular signal.Providing a strong cellular signal
The speed and security of cellular data is contingent on a strong cellular signal. Many buildings boast superior cellular connections, but many others suffer from poor connectivity caused by building materials or natural obstructions. A passive distributed antenna system (DAS) can help you overcome these challenges and meet your connectivity needs.Passive DAS, or cell phone signal boosters, can make a big difference. These devices use antennas to detect and capture any existing signal outside the building. Then, the booster amplifies the signal and broadcasts it inside the building, providing a better signal within range of nearby cell phones and mobile devices.Depending on the size and layout of the interior space you’re working with, you may need several antennas and amplifiers to provide the required improvement. That’s where the expertise of a professional installer comes in: they can help optimize the booster system for the best results.Contact us to learn more about how a cell phone signal booster can improve your building’s reception, or download one our latest case studies to learn how WilsonPro integrators helped achieve total cellular connectivity for their clients and can do the same for your business.Read more about this topic: WiFi vs. Cellular Data: Why WiFi May Not Cut it for Your Business
