Why Passive RF Loss Still Limits 5G and DAS Performance
Jan , 10 2026
In 5G and large-scale DAS deployments, engineers often focus on radios, baseband units, and antenna patterns. These are visible, measurable, and easy to discuss in meetings. However, in real-world projects, performance limitations are far more often caused by something less obvious: passive RF loss. After working with operators, system integrators, and public safety networks for many years, one th...

How Passive RF Components Shape Real-World 5G Network Performance
Jan , 24 2026
When operators design 5G networks, most attention goes to radios, spectrum, and software. But once a system leaves the lab and enters real buildings, tunnels, ships, and macro sites, performance is often limited by something far less visible: the passive RF layer. From Maniron’s manufacturing experience, we see the same pattern repeatedly: active equipment defines theoretical capacity, while passi...
