In building coverage – information for property owners & managers

This information is for building owners and managers in Australia who wish to make preliminary inquiries about in-building coverage.

AMTA is publishing the DAS Guidelines on behalf of the mobile carriers that serves as voluntary guidance to third parties interested in designing and installing a Distributed Antenna System (DAS) that will support the supply of enhanced in-building mobile coverage by all mobile carriers.

The 2025 DAS Guidelines are currently under final ratification and will be published on this page soon.

The mobile carriers have identified a need to produce a new guideline for two primary reasons:

  • a DAS needs to be capable of supporting 5G technology and 5G spectrum bands.
  • a DAS does not need to support 3G technologies, as all mobile carriers have announced the withdrawal of 3G, with spectrum being repurposed for either 4G or 5G mobile technologies.

Any organisation looking to install a Distributed Antenna System or other in-building coverage solution should contact any of the carriers/DAS Infrastructure Operators using the contact details below.
