Why dB Matters So Much in RF Design
Oct , 18 2025
In the world of RF design, dB (decibel) is more than just a unit—it’s the fundamental language that engineers use to describe gain, loss, power level, and system performance. Without understanding dB, it’s nearly impossible to evaluate or optimize RF components such as antennas, filters, couplers, and power splitters. Understanding the Role of dB The decibel is a logarithmic unit that expresses th...

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...
