Untethering
Starts Here

The “built world” is on the cusp of a major shift referred to as Digital Transformation. This initiative seeks to achieve myriad business outcomes that include occupant experience, operational efficiency, analytical insights and more. But Digital Transformation cannot be achieved without connectivity.

Today, connectivity is all about untethering.

For more than 19 years, RF Connect has relentlessly pursued being best-in-class as a trusted advisor for untethering solutions through an intense focus on innovation and excellence.

Since our inception, we’ve deployed indoor and outdoor Wi-Fi, rural, suburban and municipal fixed wireless access (FWA) networks and in-building and campus-wide cellular coverage for 3G, 4G and, now, 5G. We’ve been at the forefront of indoor public-safety communications. We’ve architected custom networks for specialized applications and requirements. And we’ve developed a portfolio of innovative solutions based on CBRS OnGo which include Signal Sources, RAN, EPCs and more for Private Cellular Networks.
