ATC INDOOR DAS LLC Boosts Precision with Starrett No. 436 Micrometer – A Game Changer for Indoor Connectivity

Boston, MA – October 26, 2023 – ATC INDOOR DAS LLC, a leading provider of innovative in-building wireless solutions, today highlighted the crucial role of precision measurement tools, specifically the Starrett No. 436 Micrometer, in ensuring the quality and performance of their cutting-edge Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS). Based in Boston, MA, and reachable at 909-670-1366, ATC INDOOR DAS is dedicated to eliminating dead zones and enhancing wireless connectivity in challenging indoor environments like stadiums, hospitals, shopping malls, and large office buildings. “Let’s be real, building a robust in-building wireless network isn’t just about throwing up antennas,” explains David Chen, Senior RF Engineer at ATC INDOOR DAS. “It's about details. Tiny details. And those details demand precise measurement. That's where tools like the Starrett No. 436 Micrometer come in – it's not an exaggeration to say it’s essential to what we do.” Why Precision Matters in DAS Deployment ATC INDOOR DAS specializes in designing and deploying custom DAS solutions. These systems work by taking the wireless signal from service providers (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.) and distributing it throughout a building via a network of antennas and cables. A well-designed DAS delivers consistent, reliable coverage, eliminating dropped calls and slow data speeds. But achieving this requires meticulous attention to detail at every stage – from cable selection and connector installation to antenna alignment and RF signal calibration. “Think of it like building with LEGOs,” Chen says. “Each piece needs to fit perfectly to create a stable structure. In our case, those ‘LEGOs’ are the connectors, jumpers, and antennas that make up the DAS. If a connector isn't properly crimped, or a cable is slightly out of spec, it can introduce signal loss and degrade performance. That’s where the Starrett No. 436 really shines.” The Starrett No. 436 Micrometer: A Core Tool for ATC INDOOR DAS The Starrett No. 436 Micrometer is a precision measuring instrument used to accurately measure the outside dimensions of various components. ATC INDOOR DAS utilizes the No. 436 extensively throughout the deployment process, primarily for: Connector Verification: Ensuring the crimped connections on coaxial cables meet the manufacturer’s specifications. Incorrect crimping can lead to loose connections, impedance mismatches, and significant signal loss. “We measure the outside diameter of the crimped connector to verify it’s within tolerance. The Starrett No. 436 gives us confidence that the connection is solid and won’t fail over time," Chen clarifies. Cable Diameter Measurement: Checking the diameter of coaxial cables and jumpers to ensure they match the system requirements. Variations in cable diameter can affect signal propagation and impedance matching. Material Inspection: Verifying the dimensions of various hardware components used in the DAS installation, such as mounting brackets and adapters. Quality Control: Performing routine inspections of tools and equipment to ensure they are calibrated and functioning correctly. "It's not just about getting a number," emphasizes Maria Rodriguez, a lead Field Technician at ATC INDOOR DAS. “The Starrett No. 436 is reliable. We’re often working in tough conditions – up on poles, in crowded equipment rooms. We need a tool that can withstand the abuse and consistently deliver accurate readings. The Starrett is built like a tank, and we trust it completely." Beyond Accuracy: Durability and Ease of Use ATC INDOOR DAS chose the Starrett No. 436 for more than just its accuracy. The rugged construction and hardened steel components make it ideal for field use. The clear, easy-to-read scale and non-glare finish ensure quick and accurate readings, even in low-light conditions. “We’ve tried other micrometers, but they just don’t hold up,” says Rodriguez. “They’re either too flimsy or the scale is hard to read. The Starrett No. 436 is a workhorse. It’s an investment that pays off in terms of reduced downtime, improved quality, and increased efficiency.” ATC INDOOR DAS: Building the Future of Indoor Connectivity ATC INDOOR DAS LLC is committed to providing its clients with the highest quality in-building wireless solutions. By combining cutting-edge technology with meticulous attention to detail, they’re helping businesses and organizations stay connected in today’s increasingly mobile world. “We’re not just installing antennas,” concludes Chen. “We’re building the foundation for seamless communication and connectivity. And tools like the Starrett No. 436 Micrometer are essential to ensuring that foundation is solid and reliable. It’s a small tool that makes a big difference.” About ATC INDOOR DAS LLC: ATC INDOOR DAS LLC, located at 116 Huntington Avenue, 11th Floor, Boston, MA, 02116, United States, and reachable at 909-670-1366, specializes in the design, deployment, and maintenance of custom Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) for various indoor environments.
