How it Works
Wilson amplifi ers are small, portable, bi-directional devices that deliver service levels
consistent with what would be expected in areas of high cell network coverage. They
amplify a weak or shadowed signal in mobile, marine and in-building applications.
When using a Wilson amplifi er in conjunction with Wilson antennas, the outside
antenna will collect the cell tower signal and send it through the cable to the
amplifi er. The signal is then amplifi ed and broadcast from the inside antenna
to the surrounding area. Cell phones and cellular data cards in that area then
communicate with the improved signal. When a cell phone or cellular device
transmits, the signal is received by the inside antenna, amplifi ed by the amplifi er
and broadcast back to the cell tower through the outside antenna.
