What is a BDA?

BDA(Bi-Directional Amplifier) offers an effective solution for enhancing in-building First Responder Radio coverage. The installation of BDA systems must adhere to the requirements set by that local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ), specifically the Fire Department, and the local FCC License Holder. Increasingly, Fire Departments are enforcing NFPA 1221, which outlines the minimum coverage requirements for First Responder Radio coverage.

NFPA 1221, NFPA 72, and IFC 510 all establish minimum coverage requirements for in-building radio communications for First Responders. The BDA Requirements encompass the codes adopted by the local Fire Department and FCC License Holder to define these minimum coverage requirements. This process involves conducting a series of standardized tests that generate a comprehensive report highlighting any coverage deficiencies within the building. It is important to note that while there are standardized tests, each local Fire Department or AHJ may have their own distinct set of requirements.

After conducting BDA testing, the report(s) generated from the First Responder radio coverage testing will be submitted to both the local AHJ and FCC license holder. If the in-building radio frequency coverage fails to meet the code requirements as determined by the local AHJ, an in-building supplemental emergency responder radio communication enhancement system becomes necessary. It is crucial to note that each AHJ has its own specific set of code requirements, and only the local AHJ can determine whether a BDA system installation will be required for your building.
