Reliable Coverage for Life-Saving Care
Humber River Hospital's goal of being North America's first fully digital hospital into a benchmark for digital resilience. Linkwave deployed a high-capacity Distributed Antenna System (DAS). This Tier-One infrastructure eliminates critical signal gaps, providing the high-density HSPA and LTE cellular connectivity required to support mission-critical medical workflows and real-time patient data.
Linkwave's end-to-end services included RF engineering and the integration of a dedicated Public Safety ERCES for Police, Fire, and EMS frequencies. By managing all carrier coordination and rigorous interference testing, Linkwave established a secure, multi-carrier network that serves as a cornerstone for provincial health and emergency response.
