 Description:

The RF 101 and CriticalPoint BDA NG training and certification class is a comprehensive 2-day course to provide in-depth RF training for public safety wireless communications network.  The training will prepare the student on how to properly conduct a link budget and avoid common mistakes when commissioning a public safety BDA.

The first day consists of a full 8-hours and instructs the student on RF principle and theories.  The second day covers 2 hours of instruction on the installation and commissioning of Comba’s CriticalPoint public safety BDA along with best practices.

 

After the training, an examination is given covering all the topics.  If passed, the student will receive a CriticalPoint BDA NG certification which is often required by the local AHJ when submitting plans for approval of the BDA.
