AWS is the band that T-Mobile is using for it’s newly introduced 4G HSPA+ data network which is also used by Cricket and MetroPCS and some smaller rural carriers for delivering a high speed alternative to the slower satellite internet many rural customers are currently using.

The 4G AWS booster is similar in size to Wilson’s other amplifiers and can deliver a 60dB improvement in signal strength, enough to turn a weak signal into a manageable one, the company says. Similar to how their existing repeater systems operate, the new 4G AWS  system will improve your weak T-Mobile internet signal in and around your home or office.

The 4G AWS 60 db amplifier will be joined in the Wilson line-up by a booster for the AT&T 700Mhz LTE network and they will soon add a Verizon model and a Sprint/Clearwire Wimax amplifier. These all join the great selection of boosters for Mobile, Home and Office currently available from Repeaterstore.com.

As soon as we have more details we will update the the Wilson 811255 DataPro page, and post to this blog.

No problem, we have the solution for you! Follow this link to see the YX540 Metro from Wireless Extenders:

http://www.repeaterstore.com/products/repeaterkits/wi-ex/zboost-yx-540.php

This amazing device works by attaching an external antenna to the inside of a window or glass door and a cable leading from this panel antenna connects to the YX540 Metro base unit which then amplifies the weak signal and re-broadcasts it to your cell phone.

The range of this cellular repeater is exceptional and will allow multiple cellular phones and broadband data devices (aircards) to receive this amplified signal. By boosting the broadband signal, your data upload and download speed will improve as well. It will work with Sierra, Novatel, MiFi and many other devices.

Repeaterstore has reduced the original price by $50.00 and as an added benefit, Wi-Ex is offering a $50.00 manufacturers mail in rebate through Saturday, November 20^th.

It’s time you had ‘no more dropped calls’ or missed emails when you purchase a Wi-Ex zBoost YX540 Metro during this fantastic savings event going on right now!

The iBooster 805201 by Wilson Electronics is an all-in-one signal booster that amplifies the incoming and outgoing AT&T signal for original iPhone, iPhone 3G, 3GS and iPhone 4.  Your iPhone sits in the cradle-like booster and, while charging your phone, amplifies both voice and 3G data signals. The iBooster allows your iPhone to function as if it’s operating in a good service area. We’ve seen dramatic increases in download speed and voice reception when using the iBooster. 

The Wilson Sleek (815226) is a more universal booster that comes as plug-and-play kit: you can enjoy improved reception in minutes! For both of these cradle-type kits a small magnetic antenna is placed on the roof of your car or, when using the Sleek home/office kit (#859970), sticks to the window of your home/office.

For those of you who enjoy a wireless experience, RepeaterStore has many options to fit your needs. A good start would be the Wi-Ex zBoost YX545 SOHO Dual Band Repeater Kit. The YX545 improves standard voice calls but also 3G data & internet browsing, exactly what the iPhone 4 does. It will wirelessly cover up to 2500 square feet while supporting up to 20 users simultaneously with no need to connect to your phone to improve reception. Another excellent kit option is the Wilson 801262 DB Pro Dual Band 62dB Amplifier and kit. The amplifier has 62dB of gain, and when purchased as a full kit can cover up to 5,000 sq ft.

Each carrier tries to provide a good usable signal, but unfortunately, many obstacles exist that the carrier cannot overcome: trees, valleys, hills, cement or brick buildings and buildings with metal roofs or metal siding or basements.  These obstacles block or hinder the normally adequate signal which results in broken or dropped voice calls and very slow or non-existent internet service.

Dropped phone calls and slow internet service can be remedied with a cellular booster or repeater kit.  A repeater kit helps this communication by ‘re-transmitting’  the callers signal using:

1. An internal antenna to receive the cell phone signal inside the building, home, car or boat,
2. A cellular amplifier,
3. An external antenna to send a signal to the cell tower. These components are joined together by coaxial cables.

Home or building kits can be customized using different lengths of cable for multiple interior antennas. These antennas can be on a single floor or on multiple floors. The cost of these kits can range from $250 for a small home or RV to $2500 for a large home with multiple floors.  Commercial buildings may require a couple of repeater kits to supply signal to areas from 20,000 to 100,000 square feet.

Whether it’s mobile, home or office that leaves your phone or data card silent, we can tailor a repeater kit for you to bring those essential tools back to life!

The Wi-Ex company has added a new zBoost CI Active Antenna Amplifier for maximum indoor cell signal. The Active Antenna Amplifier greatly improves the performance of an external zBoost CI cell phone signal booster antenna. This coupling optimizes the strong signal reaching the indoor space your trying to cover and maximizes the phone reception, speed of your aircard and Edge and 3g signals including smart phones.

• Your installer can now extend the external cable from the previous 75′ maximum to over 250′ of RG6 cable with the zBoost CI Active Antenna Amplifier
• You can use 4 zBoost base units with 1 zBoost CI external antenna with an Active Antenna Amplifier attached, perfect for multi-unit buildings
• A large home solution at a lower total cost than other manufacturers while offering greater installation flexibility with longer cable runs

Using the zBoost Active Antenna Amplifier with our favorite Wi-Ex zBoost system should greatly enhance the signal strength, offer far better flexibility for the installer and we’ll be able to recommend systems where we couldn’t reach an outside signal before. We look forward to seeing the zBoost Active Antenna Amplifier in the next few months!

Do you have a large, multi story home or a small office, spread out just enough to need more than the basic repeater kits available? You can choose a large building solution and have a  professionally installed system with the CI YX745 Amplifier kit to create a coverage area of up to 12000 square feet. The zboost CI YX745 is available to your professional installer to boost signal on both the 800Mhz and 1900 Mhz bands.

Slow access in a 3G service area can be remedied with a Cellular Booster or Repeater kit.  A Repeater may be all that is needed to resume 3G speed. Repeater Kits consist of three components:

1) an outside/external antenna

2) an amplifier/repeater

3) an internal antenna that is coupled to the Wireless USB card or MiFi
