In large buildings with more than 4 dwellings, amplifiers are an important part of the telecommunications infrastructure.

What are amplifiers?
Amplifiers are devices that boost the signal of television, radio and mobile phone systems in areas where the signal is weak or unstable.
Amplifiers in large buildings
In the case of large buildings, amplifiers are particularly important because telecommunications signals have to reach multiple housing units, which can be difficult if the signal is weak or obstructed by the building structure. In this sense, amplifiers are used to ensure that the signal reaches all housing units without problems.
There are several types of amplifiers that are used in large buildings with more than 4 dwellings.
Types of amplifiers
The most common amplifiers are broadband amplifiers and distribution line amplifiers.
Broadband amplifiers
Broadband amplifiers are used to amplify television and radio signals at different signal frequencies. This type of amplifier is used to ensure that the signal reaches all dwelling units in the building, regardless of the frequency of the signal. Broadband amplifiers typically have a frequency range of 50 MHz to 1 GHz.
Distribution line amplifiers
Distribution line amplifiers, on the other hand, are used to amplify mobile phone signals in the frequencies of the 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz band. This type of amplifier is used to ensure that the mobile phone signal reaches all dwelling units in the building.
Distribution line amplifiers are installed in the telecommunication distribution line supplying mobile phone signals to the whole building. This type of amplifier is used in large buildings with more than 4 dwellings because the mobile phone signal can be obstructed by the building structure and can be difficult to reach all the housing units.
More types of boosters
In addition to broadband and distribution line amplifiers, there are other types of amplifiers that are used in large buildings with more than 4 dwellings. For example, antenna amplifiers are used to amplify television and radio signals that are received via an antenna. Antenna amplifiers are used when the signal received by the antenna is weak and does not reach all dwelling units in the building.
