Cellular Signal Filter Applications & Benefits
Sep 05, 2017
Why use cell phone signal filters for cellular signal amplifiers? In video below, we're going to cover the basics of cellular signal filters and how they can be utilized to prevent signal overload. Transcript: So, here's the situation. You have got the signal booster all set up, and everything is working, but you're experiencing overload on a particular band. Therefore, you're not able to place a call. Overload means that your booster is receiving a strong signal from a nearby cell tower. This is good if it is a signal coming from one carrier, and it just means that...
Inside / Indoor / Interior Antennas - Dome & Panel Antenna Differences
Sep 04, 2017
There're many inside antenna options for professional installers of cell phone signal boosters. Today, we will discuss all inside antenna options. An inside antenna broadcasts a signal throughout the inside of a building. We will cover the two types of antennas, how to install them, where to install them and the differences between them. The two types of antenna you will come across are a dome antenna and the panel antenna. The main differences between them really just comes down to their radiation pattern or how they broadcast the signal. A dome antenna transmits a signal 360 degrees around it...
How many indoor antennas can one signal amplifier support?
Sep 01, 2017
In today's FAQ video below, we will answer the question, "how many inside cellular antennas can one amplifier support?". In most cases, a Wilson Pro amplifier will support two to four interior antennas per port, but an amplifier can support more indoor antennas and strong signal environments when using lower loss cable, and depending on the actual coverage area needed for each antenna. For example, if you have a strong output signal from the amplifier, and you will only need two 20 to 30 foot radius of coverage off each antenna, then the amplifier may be able to support six...
