THE CHALLENGE



Boost Pro was approached to design and install two distributed antenna systems
in key administrative areas across two hospital buildings within University
Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust – Queen Elizabeth Hospital, and
Regents Court. 

Poor mobile coverage is a common problem in hospitals, due to the design and
materials used during construction (concrete, steel, and Low-E glass). This can
have a detrimental effect on both staff being able to carry out their daily
duties, as well as patients not being able to communicate with family, in what
is often a highly stressful time.

In line with the “NHS Long Term Plan” in making better use of digital
technology, improving connectivity and mobile coverage for staff and patients
was a priority.




THE SOLUTION



Working in conjunction with the IT and Estates teams, the Boost Pro technical
team conducted detailed surveys and testing across both sites. Each building had
its own unique challenges and requirements, therefore two different solutions
were designed. 

For Queen Elizabeth Hospital, our engineers deployed a Hybrid DAS, covering the
full executive suite.

For Regents Court, our engineers deployed a passive DAS covering the offices and
meeting rooms.

Our solutions benefit from:

✓ Multi Network 3G 4G 5G* Voice and Data
✓ Network Safe and Network operator approved
✓ Indoor / Outdoor NEMA 4 Rated
✓ Scalable, all-digital PoE Solution
✓ Setup, Maintenance, and Remote Management

*Hardware is 5G ready for Voice and Data and service will be activated once
Ofcom approves 5G frequencies.


THE RESULTS



All targeted areas of the hospital buildings now receive full LTE voice and data
coverage on the NHS corporate network

Staff can now seamlessly communicate with each other, patients, and other
external stakeholders.

Staff now benefit from improved health, safety, and well-being. reducing stress
levels and improving employee satisfaction.  

Better business continuity – mobile networks provide resilient backup comms, and
pave the way for future IoT use, in line with the NHS digital transformation
programme.
