How it Works
Your new Wilson amplier has been carefully engineered to signicantly improve the
performance of your cell phone or cellular data card in mobile applications. Together with an
outside antenna, the amplier’s state-of-the-art technology is designed to increase your signal
up to 10 times, reduce disconnects and dropouts, and increase data communication rates
needed for 3G technologies.
The outside antenna will collect the cell tower signal and send it through the cable to the
amplier. The signal is then boosted and sent through the Ultra-slim inside antenna. Your
cell phone or data card then communicates with the improved signal. When the cell phone
or data card transmits, the signal goes through the inside antenna, is boosted by the
amplier and broadcast back to the cell tower through the outside antenna. The Ultra-slim
antenna may also be attached directly to a laptop or cellular data card for maximum signal
performance.
Wilson Electronics manufactures a wide variety of antennas to help you customize your
amplier for your specic application. Several are shown below. See your dealer or visit
