Pure Offices


Background

Pure Offices were founded in 2007 to offer a personalised and flexible managed office solution to businesses around the country. By carefully designing the Pure Offices locations to maximise light and natural ventilation, they have created modern offices built to meet the demands of the modern business workplace. As with many modern building refurbishments requiring energy efficient and environmentally friendly services and construction, the result is a significantly degraded mobile signal service internally. Pure Offices in Nottingham, was one of the worst affected out of 20 UK locations, and had recently had a non compliant booster solution removed by the regulator Ofcom, leaving the tenants with very poor mobile signal on all Carrier Networks.

Solution

Zonegen were selected against other vendors to survey, report and quote for the provision of installing a Mobile Telephony Solution to the 3 occupied floors, for all networks.


After conducting a detailed site survey, report, solution design and quotation, we were commissioned to provide the solution. Our proposal was a complex installation of a 12 x GO X units (3 per floor), 4 SISO External Antennas, and a Passive DAS of Low Loss Coaxial Cabling, and multiple Omni Antennas throughout.


PURE Office IT approved the design proposals, allowing Zonegen to implement to the agreed budget and timescales.

Challenges

Working in an occupied Office environment presented its own challenges in relation to minimising disruption, not to mention the internal complexities of construction as part of the building was being fitted out for a new client. Balancing the Passive DAS, to provide uniform signal coverage and penetration into key areas was also a challenge. The implementation had to meet strict building regulations and tight commercial deadlines and budget.

Result

The solution provided a minimum 30dBm improvement in signal strength, uniformly across the worst affected areas. Tenants were happy with the new coverage, as was Pure Offices (our client). After the installation was completed, Zonegen carried out a post install survey, completed a detailed handover providing full documentation to the client, and were rewarded by being given the same opportunity at a further 6 locations around the UK.
