So what is a wireless amplifier…?
A wireless amplifier is an electrical device which strengthens the power or gain of a wireless signal in order to send a signal over longer distances. Unfortunately, amplifiers also strengthen the noise and other unwanted garbage when amplifying the primary signal. When the 802.11 standard was originally developed, a wireless signal was meant to replace local area network Ethernet cabling. A wireless signal without amplification will travel 300-500 feet. However, with the proper elevation of 100 ft. and an amplifier, plus the right antennas, a wireless signal can be sent more than 20-30 miles.
…but who is Wilson Electronics?
Are world leader in cellular improvement products for mobile and in-building applications. Wilson’s cellular boosters overcome the problem of dropped calls, limited range and reduced data rates for cell phones and data cards by amplifying weak cellular signals. The powerful bidirectional cellular amplifiers provide the highest receiver sensitivity in the industry and protect cell sites by preventing oscillation and overload. Also, the efficient cellular antennas are available in a wide range of designs (omni, Yagi, panel) for interior and exterior mounting in buildings, cars, trucks, RVs and boats.
The 801212 & 801213 Wireless Amplifier Cradle Kits
Wilson’s (801212 & 801213) mobile amplifier kit, is an all new product designed for any mobile application. If you work on the road, commute through dead cell zones, or just experiencing poor cellular signal, here is a product that will solve your problem. Installation for this kit couldn’t be any easier. It’s literally a Plug-and-Play. It installs in minutes, and doesn’t require any tools.
With the (801212 & 801213) mobile amplifier kit, you can improve your cell phone and data card performance when you are always on the move. Whether you are using it in your car, truck, RV, SUV, or boat, Wilson’s (801212 & 801213) will increase your bars and give you the signal you need to stay connected. This Wireless Amplifier was designed to support multiple phones and cellular-based data cards at the same time. It is compatible with all phones using 824-894 MHz & 1850-1990 MHz frequencies (except iDEN, Nextel), and with all generations of CDMA, TDMA, & GSM.
The amplifier functions with two antennas : the outside antenna communicates with the cell site and the inside antenna with your cell phone. The exterior antenna supplied is a magnet mount antenna. The inside antenna, installs just as easy as the outside antenna. It is a low profile antenna and can be applied in multiple ways. The most common way to use this antenna is to attach in on the side of the driver seat to keep it as close as possible to user and cell phone.
After setting up the entire connection as directed and with the amplifier powered on and working, the signal bars immediately increase. Hence, faster data throughput rates for mobile data terminals can be achieved with stronger cellular signals. This is verified by the above shown test results.
Wilson’s 801212 & 801213 cell phone amplifiers offer safe overload protection circuit. They automatically resets whenever overload occurs on this bidirectional amplifier. RF shielding also occurs when using this RF receiver and transmitter: Wireless phones vary their power output based on their proximity to cell sites and this RF technology makes cellular phones lower their power output simulating an RF shield because it simulates proximity to a cell site thereby resulting in safer phones and longer battery life.
Law enforcements and other emergency vehicles are depending more on cellular communication for their information needs. Cellular amplifiers improve both cellular coverage area and data throughput rates by supplying a stronger and more consistent cellular signal to cellular equipment in mobile vehicles and command centers.
“To sum it up, based on the research, Wilson’s Mobile Wireless Dual-Band Amplifier Kit has proven to be a great product that really works. If it works with your cell phone, and you’ll use it enough to justify the cost, the Wilson Electronics Wireless Amplifier Cradle Kit is a great tool for boosting your cell phone’s reception.”
