801105 - Wilson Cellular Smart Technology 50dB In-Building Wireless 800MHz Cellular Bi-Directional Amplifier

Wilson Cellular's new series of Smart Technology In-Building Cell Phone Amplifiers offer exceptional performance without causing harmful interference to the cell site.

Wilson Cellular Amplifiers extend cellular services in poor coverage areas by amplifying both transmit and receive signals. The amplifiers reduce problems with signal fades and dropped calls while improving voice quality, service range and access. These multi-mode amplifiers are designed to offer a cost-effective solution for use in buildings. Wilson Cellular amplifiers are network compatible and enhance the cellular phone user's satisfaction without compromising the operation of the cellular system.

This Amplifier-Repeater greatly improves signal strength inside a building when using your cellular phone. It does this without a physical connection to your phone, allowing you to walk freely during a call. It even allows multiple phones to be used simultaneously.

The signal from the cellular tower is received by the outside antenna and then amplifier and repeated to your phone through the inside antenna. When the phone transmits it is received by the inside antenna and then amplified/repeated through the outside antenna to the cellular tower.
