Cell phone booster guide

At Cell Phone Booster store, we can help you solve poor reception problems with the right solution. Our kits are ready to install right out of the box and do not require any consent from providers in the US and Canada. These booster systems are pre-approved by the FCC for all carriers and have a proven track record of improving cellular and data signal in areas with poor or no signal. We have solutions for your home, office, or vehicle that can boost both voice and data signal. All of our products come with a 2-year warranty, and we also offer a 5-year extended warranty. Choosing the right solution may seem daunting at first, but once you understand how a cell phone signal booster works, it becomes simple. A complete booster system includes an outdoor antenna, indoor antenna, and amplifier. Check out the FCC approved kits on our website to find the right solution for your specific problem.

What type of outdoor antenna do I need ?

There are two types of antennas that are commonly used for cell phone signal boosters: directional Yagi antenna and Omnidirectional antenna. The directional Yagi antenna is highly sensitive to cell phone signals, but it only receives signals from one direction, similar to a TV antenna. It needs to be installed in a specific direction, just like a TV antenna. On the other hand, an Omnidirectional antenna can receive signals from all directions in a 360-degree pattern. However, it is not as sensitive as the directional Yagi antenna, and it is much easier to install as you only need to find a suitable spot to place it.

Choose directional Yagi antenna Vs Omnidirectional antenna, if

When choosing between a directional Yagi antenna and an omnidirectional antenna for your outdoor antenna, there are a few factors to consider:

1. Distance to cell tower: If the cell tower is far away and you need to amplify a weak signal, then a directional Yagi antenna is a better choice. The directional Yagi antenna has a higher gain, which means it is more sensitive to weaker signals and can pick up a signal from a greater distance.

2. Obstructions: If there are obstructions, such as trees or buildings, between your location and the cell tower, a directional Yagi antenna may be more effective. The directional antenna can be aimed towards the cell tower and can potentially bypass obstructions to receive a better signal.

3. Multiple carriers: If you want to boost signals from multiple carriers, then an omnidirectional antenna is a better choice. The omnidirectional antenna can pick up signals from all directions, allowing it to amplify signals from multiple carriers.

4. Ease of installation: If you want a simple and easy installation process, then an omnidirectional antenna is a better choice. The omnidirectional antenna can be installed anywhere, and does not require aiming towards the cell tower like the directional Yagi antenna.

Ultimately, the choice between a directional Yagi antenna and an omnidirectional antenna depends on your specific situation and needs. If you need to amplify a weak signal from a faraway cell tower or bypass obstructions, a directional Yagi antenna may be the better choice. If you want to boost signals from multiple carriers or want a simple installation process, an omnidirectional antenna may be the better choice.

What type of indoor antenna do I need ?

When it comes to selecting the indoor antenna is less critical then the external antenna. The two types of indoor antenna are the wall mount panel antenna and the ceiling mount dome antenna.
a) The wall mount panel antenna broadcasts signal in a face forward direction and recommended for long hallways or ranch style buildings.
b) The ceiling mount dome antenna is suited if you plan to mount the indoor antenna centrally.

Does the outdoor antenna require power ?

The only component that requires power is the amplifier and the rest of the components runs off that power source. All building amplifiers comes with a AC power supply and DC power supply for vehicles systems.

Will the booster system boost data signal ?

Yes, by increasing the signal strength for voice, our kits also improve the data bandwidth for faster internet.

Our building is metal and brick, will this system work for us?

Metal buildings are notorious for poor signal, because metal blocks cell phone signal from entering the building. However once the signal is inside the metal or brick building, that signal is in a sense trapped inside the building and provide excellent coverage. Our booster systems capture the cell phone signal via powerful antennas and bring it into the building by coax cables and broadcast a stronger signal with broadcast antennas.
