How Can Mobile Boosters Help You? Insights About 4G/5G Antenna and Cel-Fi

In the 21st century, modern consumers and working professionals have grown increasingly reliant on fast data. Nothing is more annoying than a slow-loading website or a video that buffers. Dead zones on cellular networks aren’t just an inconvenience. They’re a serious problem.

If you have a weak cellular signal at your house or office, a mobile booster can be very helpful. A mobile booster can resolve any reception problems you might be experiencing quickly and easily.

What is a Mobile Signal Booster?

Cell phone signal boosters or mobile boosters capture a signal outside or near your building and then repeat that signal inside your home, commercial space, apartment, car, office, or RV.

Signal boosters work on a simple principle: A large 4G antenna or 5G antenna is better than a small one. Instead of using your phone’s tiny antenna, they use an external antenna in your window or exterior of your house (or car). Next, the signal gets cleaned up and amplified. Then it is relayed to your home through an internal antenna.

Mobile Boosters have no additional fees. They are compatible with all carriers and are easily installed. They are an excellent solution for eliminating dropped calls and poor cellular reception in rooms ranging from 10 to 100,000 square metres. Mobile Booster devices offered by CommuniVations are approved by all carriers in Australia, allowing your business, home, or vehicle to improve download speeds and make crystal-clear calls.

How does a Mobile Signal Booster Work?

As long as you have a signal outside your vehicle or home, the booster can amplify it inside the space to provide you with better talk, text, and data.

The Mobile boosters usually consist of three main parts:

• An external 4G or 5G antenna – which installed outside the house.
• A signal booster – which amplifies and cleans the signal.
• An internal antenna – which installed inside the home.

Coaxial cables connect all three parts.

Most boosters support bands 2/4/66, 5, 12, 13, and 17. These include Telstra, Optus & Vodafone base coverage bands.

Also, most home boosters increase signal strength by 64 to 71 dB. However, if you need a greater boost, you can use Cel-Fi, which can boost frequencies in use by a single wireless carrier at a time.

Why Do You Get Poor Reception and Dropped Calls?

You may encounter dead zones or dropped calls because the 4G antenna or 5G antenna inside your mobile phone is not sensitive enough to pick up a weak network signal coming from the outside of your home or building.

Various factors work together and independently to cause poor reception and dropped calls. A few of these are:

• Cellular tower distance and user capacity
• Geographical obstructions (hills, mountains, rocks)
• Organic obstructions (trees, leaves, snowbanks)
• Weather conditions (rain, snowfall, wind, dust)
• Manmade obstructions (buildings, walls, fences)

All of these factors can negatively impact your cell signal, but Mobile Boosters can usually overcome them.

You can improve your phone calls and mobile internet speed by using external 4G antennas/5G antennas to pick up the Telstra network. And then a Cel-Fi Go internal repeater to boost the network inside the house.

What Are The Best Ways To Improve 4G/5G Connectivity?

Below are three methods you can use to optimise your data 4G/5G speed.

1. Upgrade Your Hotspot/Phone: With an updated hotspot or phone, you can access new bands even if you have an old device. Faster data rates are possible with newer devices that support the latest 4G/5G specifications.

1. Install External Antennas: With external 4G/5G antennas, you can improve your connection speed. Major carriers offer external antenna ports on their hotspots. A good external antenna can improve both signal quality and signal strength and allow you to connect with data bands that aren’t available in the home.

1. Use a Mobile Booster: There are some phones without external antenna ports. In this case, the best way to improve data speed on the phone is to use a Mobile Booster/signal booster. With a signal booster, your signal is amplified, resulting in stronger reception (RSRP). They can be used in conjunction with external antennas for wireless rebroadcast of an improved signal indoors.

These options mentioned above have a different impact on your 4G or 5G signals and, consequently, on your data speeds.

What Cellular Signal Booster Should I Choose?

There are three different types of cellular signal boosters.

1. Smaller office installations: Generally, they do not require external antenna installations, and they are suitable for areas up to 5000 square feet. Typically, most installations can be completed within an hour (sometimes as fast as 15 minutes!)

1. Complex installations: In such installations, specialised equipment (such as high-gain antennas and tailored cable lengths) are used, or cables must be run inside walls and ceilings. While some users may be able to install these themselves, it is better to have it done by a professional in most cases.

1. Large scale installations: These are installations when more complex pieces of equipment are required. Additionally, signal site surveys and other diagnostics often involve a great deal of complexity. It makes sense to have these installations performed by a skilled installation company with very few exceptions.

Self-Install Mobile Booster or Trust a Pro?

Installing a mobile booster, Ce-Fi or 4G antenna, or 5G antenna at a smaller or home level will not be difficult. But still, you will need a pro who can help you pick the best devices. And help you find the best antenna position outside your home.

However, if you’re going through complex or large-scale installation, you MUST seek professional help. In that case, CommuniVations can help!
