A Multi-carrier Distributed Antenna System (MDAS) will be installed over the next 18-24 months to provide cellular service for ATT, Sprint-T-Mobile, and Verizon connections throughout the Medical Center Campus. The construction will be completed in phases targeting specific building groups.

22 – Wohl Hospital,
86 – CSRB-(North Tower Addition)
- Infrastructure phase (installation of cable, antennas & testing
equipment): Monday, August 23rd, 2021, to Friday, Jan 21st, 2022. - Swap-over (i.e., move existing Sprint signal to new MDAS): February 5-6,
2022. - AT&T & Verizon signals forecasted to be integrated by 2-20-22.
Who’s impacted?
