MPBX is a primary provider of public safety signal enhancement solutions in south florida, founded in 2009 by Ric Caselli whom has over 20 years experience of in-building system design and deployment.
Current regulations mandate public safety coverage inside buildings, either to obtain a Certificate of Occupancy or, increasingly, during periodic fire inspections.

Usually a coverage test is required to assess compliance to the signal levels mandated. In case of failure, a Signal Enhancement System has to be installed in compliance with the local requirements which mandate items like NEMA rated enclosures, battery backup and supervision and monitoring alarms, as well as minimal signal levels in different areas.

These systems are also subjected to FCC regulations to prevent and mitigate interferences to the Public Safety radio network as well as to other radio infrastructure.

It is important to understand that currently all the codes refer to the local Authority Having Jurisdiction, which has the power to implement and modify all the requirement. Therefore, each deployment has to adhere to local requirements which can be different between cities, counties and local fire and electrical departments.

The lack of standardization and the continuous fine tuning of codes contributes to a degree of unpredictability in the implementation of these systems, together with the lack of extensive RF expertise in the marketplace that comes from this being a new technology.

Thankfully, MPBX can leverage many years of experience in the field, which translates in faster and less disruptive deployments.
