<div>The booster configuration has been setup in a test scenario
where the external antenna has been placed outside with line
of site to the tower, less than a tenth of a mile away, with
the feed cable run down a hallway indoors, the booster
connected, and the indoor antenna connected (not in the data
center though).</div>

<div>Test with LTE equipment, ie. cell phones, has brought the
signal from barely a single bar of 1x to 4 bars of LTE with
good speeds. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Manager has no issue with equipment purchased and has
polled the other tenants in the same data center and they are
also OK with it. He has just cited that there is some standard
but has not been forthcoming with any documentation. </div>

<div>I figured if there was such a standard then someone here
would probably have run across it at some time.</div>

Is he denying on some industry "LTE" standard or some other data
center or security standard? <br>

<div dir="ltr">So I have a situation where I am trying
to get LTE to an out of band router and there is no
signal available in the data center. There was a
booster setup purchased and I have a manager telling
me that standards, industry and not local, prohibit
the installation.

<div>He has yet to produce any documented industry
standard so I thought I would reach out to see if
anyone here has heard of this.</div>

<div>We fall under NIST controls and I haven't found

<div>I've never heard of any industry standard preventing
such a thing. There are a few questions this raises
though. The first and most obvious being, are you sure
that a "booster setup" will actually help? Have you done
a site survey to figure out how to actually accomplish
what you need to accomplish? The other question is
whether perhaps the issue he has is with the specific
"booster setup" chosen. Perhaps there's something
naughty about it, in particular, that has caused him to
not want it in his facility (cheap Chinese radios are
known, for example, for polluting the spectrum outside
of the frequencies that they are designed to operate
within.) Maybe he has other folks doing legit RF stuff
in there and doesn't want to risk that pollution? </div>
