What Bolton Install Pros does

Bolton Install Pros is a certified cellular system integrator that designs, sells, and installs Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) — including active, passive, and hybrid configurations — along with signal boosters, LoRaWAN IoT networks, public safety BDA/ERRCS solutions, and Portable Signal Units for commercial and enterprise customers across the United States and Canada. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Stafford, Texas, the business operates as a division of Silk Worldwide, LLC and serves customers in 25+ industries, including healthcare, education, retail, government, manufacturing, oil and gas, construction, financial services, and utilities, with marquee logos such as Amazon, Tesla, Walmart, Target, Marriott, Coca-Cola, Bombardier, Air Liquide, Sherwin-Williams, and Fremont Bank documented across more than 500 installations covering 50M+ square feet.

The technology stack is anchored by certified installer partnerships with the dominant North American commercial DAS and signal booster manufacturers — WilsonPro, SureCall, Nextivity Cel-Fi, Zinwave, and Peplink — supplemented by a proprietary Bolton-branded hardware line (Bolton Victory booster, Quicksilver Yagi antenna, Board panel antenna, Arrow LDPA, Portable Signal Units) sold through the Bolton Technical e-commerce storefront. RF system designs are produced using iBwave software to generate per-carrier coverage heatmaps, and certified technicians travel nationwide to perform site surveys and installations. Deployed systems are monitored remotely through manufacturer-provided cloud portals (WilsonPro Cloud, SureCall Cloud, Cel-Fi WAVE Portal), introducing a recurring-revenue subscription layer on top of an otherwise project-based services model.

Revenue is generated from a mix of hardware resale (third-party and proprietary Bolton-branded equipment), professional installation services, custom RF system design, recurring cloud-based monitoring subscriptions, and a B2B referral program paying 5% commissions to channel partners. Pricing is quote-based, contracts are multi-year at the enterprise tier, and customer support includes two-year system and labor warranties plus lifetime technical support. In 2024, the company announced a unification with Atlantic Technology Group (ATG), broadening the portfolio to include Fixed Wireless Access, Private Cellular Networking (CBRS/HARMONY), POTS Replacement, managed IoT connectivity, drone solutions, access control, and cloud cameras, while retaining the Bolton Install Pros brand for active engagements.

Broad incumbents

• Boingo Wireless: Provider of DAS, Wi-Fi, and private cellular networks for airports, stadiums, military bases, and large venues. Overlaps with Bolton in commercial real estate and large-venue cellular coverage, though at a much larger, often operator-owned scale.
• Nextivity (Cel-Fi): Maker of the Cel-Fi QUATRA hybrid DAS and SHIELD public-safety BDA that Bolton specifies across large deployments. Nextivity's product strategy and direct enterprise programs directly affect Bolton's project mix and pricing.
• SureCall: Manufacturer of Force5 2.0, Force8, SpeedLink 5G, and Fusion5X Max signal boosters that Bolton resells and installs. Comparable in that it sells similar booster technology through integrators, dealers, and direct channels.
• JMA Wireless: US-based manufacturer of distributed antenna systems and private cellular (CBRS) solutions. Operates in adjacent in-building wireless markets, including educational, healthcare, and stadium deployments comparable to Bolton's enterprise focus.
• CommScope: Major telecom-infrastructure vendor with a broad DAS, small-cell, and in-building wireless portfolio. A larger incumbent selling both passive and active DAS into many of the same verticals (healthcare, education, hospitality, venues) as Bolton.
• ExteNet Systems (BAI Communications): Designer, builder, and operator of distributed networks for stadiums, transit, healthcare, and enterprise venues. Operates as a neutral-host in-building cellular provider directly comparable to Bolton's enterprise DAS deployments.
• Bird Technologies (Bird RF / Bird Aerosystems): Specialty RF/microwave and in-building wireless technology vendor serving commercial, public-safety, and defense markets. Comparable as a long-tenured signal-enhancement specialist with overlapping product categories to Bolton's BDA/ERRCS and DAS offerings.
• Wilson Electronics (WilsonPro): Designer and manufacturer of WilsonPro cellular signal boosters (the Enterprise 4300/1300/710i line that Bolton installs). As the primary OEM, Wilson's product roadmap, pricing, and direct-to-customer initiatives directly shape Bolton's installed base and margin.

Direct peers

• SOLiD Technologies: Manufacturer of optical DAS, public-safety BDAs, and small-cell solutions for enterprise and venue deployments. Directly comparable to Bolton in terms of product scope (active/passive DAS, ERRCS) and target end customers.
• ADRF (Advanced RF Technologies): Designer and manufacturer of in-building DAS, public-safety BDAs, and small-cell solutions for commercial real estate. Operates as an OEM-integrator hybrid that overlaps directly with Bolton's enterprise DAS and ERRCS installations.
