CELLULAR SIGNAL BOOSTERS/REPEATERS & ANTENNAS FOR FIXED LOCATIONS
An outside yagi antenna and a repeater/booster can increase the range of your cellular, iDEN, or PCS phone up to 50 miles or more* to the nearest cell site from a remote location. In-building repeaters (shown right and below) require proper installation to avoid possible damage to the repeater unit. A 110v A/C filtered power supply is included with in-building repeaters and boosters. Cabling and inside antennas are extra.
COMPLETE WILSON IN-BUILDING REPEATER SYSTEM
800 or 1900 Mhz wireless 65db In-Building repeater/booster (AC power supply included)
COMPLETE PACKAGE - $1065 (plus $20 std S&H)
This system is useful for the home/small office or where multiple cell phones need to be used simultaneously. The external mounted yagi antenna and the inside repeater antenna should be placed at least 75' "line-of-sight"apart for maximum efficiency. A metal roof is also highly recommended. This eliminates a possible "loop back" overload to the repeater which could damage the repeater. New Wilson repeaters now have adjustable gain controls to eliminate these "loop back" overloads.
*An Omni-directional antenna is available instead of the yagi antenna when connecting to more than one cell site location is required. The 75' "line-of-sight" requirement between inside and outside antennas SHOULD be met when using this antenna. The signal gain is not as great when using an omni-directional antenna.
**Finished cable is supplied in various lengths to ease the installation of the cable lightening surge protector.
***A Dual-band dome ceiling mount antenna is also available.
I also offer "hard wired" in-building cellular signal boosters and "Machine-to-Machine" boosters for those applications that don't require or desire a wireless repeater. A single cell phone is connected directly to the amplifier with a cable and eliminates the possible interference caused by using a cell phone around speakers and other electronic equipment. These systems are less expensive than a repeater system, but don't offer the flexibility of using mulitple cell phones and/or air cards simultaneously. Most cell phones today do not have an antenna connection so, a repeater system like the one shown below must be used. Contact me for pricing.
Wilson's small Signal Boost Desktop cellular/PCS amplifier/repeater kit works with all cell phones and laptop data cards (see photo at left). This complete kit includes an inside window mountable 5db panel antenna that picks up and sends out the cellular signal to the nearest cell site, connecting cable, and small desktop amplifier with a repeater antenna and AC power supply. This unit can be quickly installed and moved from one location to another without any tools. Inside coverage area is approximately 500 sq. It is perfect for those locations where a decent signal is available outside a building, but a very poor signal (if any) is available inside that same building. All you need is a window that faces the nearest cell site and is within the 30' cable length of the placement of the repeater unit and a 110V outlet. The weather-proof panel antenna can also be mounted on a pole or post.
Please contact me for exact equipment pricing and your specific installation requirements. Basic boosters require connecting cables and an external antenna for proper operation which is also available from me. I can supply a variety of antennas for fixed location sites and marine installations. Cables and connectors are extra. Shipping & handling is not included.
SIGNAL BOOSTERS/REPEATERS & ANTENNAS FOR MOBILE APPLICATIONS
Wilson cellular signal boosters are engineered as "demand" or "Linear" type signal boosters as an FCC requirement. If you are within close range of the cell site (i.e. in a moving vehicle a mile away) no addtional power is transmitted by the signal booster until your distance increases and your signal strength starts to drop. The signal booster then starts increasing it's power output to maintain optimum signal up to the booster's maximum output. If you need to use both 800MHz and 1900MHz cellular systems, new Wilson Dual-Band boosters cover both bands with one connection and antenna. All Wilson cellular boosters have built-in overload and oscillation protection.
*Signal range depends on terrain, weather conditions, location of the mobile antenna, location of the cell site, and cellular frequency.
