Contrasting Initiating DAS and Response DAS
An Initiating DAS and a Response DAS both provide life-safety critical coverage. One for civilians to communicate an emergency and the other to coordinate a response. These are two very different systems supporting different wireless networks, technologies, survivability requirements while being regulated by completely different stakeholders seeking different benefits. These are, logically, different systems when installed in a building. So far, installations are supporting this thesis. Comparatively few buildings have a combined Initiating and Response DAS for those exact reasons.
