# Indoor connectivity

80% of calls are made in buildings, but mobile signal isn’t guaranteed

### Assured connectivity where it matters most

Modern, energy-efficient building materials are good news for the environment, but they tend to block outdoor mobile signal from being able to enter a building.

So some kind of indoor connectivity is needed, otherwise it can be a cause of frustration and lowered productivity for those inside. And a less desirable and subsequently lower value building for the owner or landlord.

## Indoor connectivity products and solutions for when it matters

**Indoor small cells**  
An indoor small cell is a low power cellular coverage box that boosts mobile service for people in a carefully defined area inside. They’re similar in size and shape to a Wi-Fi access point.

**Mobile Private Network (MPN)**  
Mobile private networks (MPNs) bring your factory, port, trading floor or hospital the security, licenced frequencies and superior capacity of public networks. But they’re dedicated just to you.

**Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS)**  
Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) enhance mobile coverage in large, complex environments like stadiums, airports, and multi-building campus facilities. Whether a lead-lined wall is blocking outdoor mobile signal or the number of people trying to use their phones is too high - DAS is ideal for providing consistent, reliable connectivity in the largest, most challenging spaces and places.

**Wi-Fi**  
Wi-Fi is wireless connectivity delivered via access points and can be used both indoors and outdoors. It’s used to connect computers, smartphones and other devices quickly and easily to the internet.

#### Enterprise connectivity matters.

In 2019 CCS Insight surveyed 500 SME C-suite executives* about the impact of poor mobile connectivity in their offices.

Post pandemic reliability on digital connectivity in workplaces has only increased. At the time, 97% said mobile connectivity was more important than the two years before and 87% said they expected it to be business critical by 2021.

*CEOs, CTOs, CIOs and other senior IT decision makers were surveyed. They represented businesses with 100 – 500 employees in the UK, where over half worked in offices.*
