Featuring cell phone antennas, cell phone amplifiers and cell phone repeaters from

Welcome to wpsantennas.com, the largest Wilson Cellular Authorized Cell Phone Antenna and Cell Phone Amplifier Dealer in the country. We are also a Digital Antenna Master Distributor offering Digital Antenna Cell Phone Amplifiers and Repeaters, an ARC Wireless Solutions Distributor featuring the Freedom antenna, an Antenex Distributor offering the full range of high quality Antenex antennas and finally a Wireless Extenders (Wi-Ex) / zBoost Distributor. No matter what your cellular signal issue is, we have a quality solution available for you. Feel free to contact our Customer Representatives and Engineering Staff to help design your solution!

We offer real solutions to your cellular reception problems. Our systems range from simply attaching an external antenna directly to your phone (with or without signal amplification) to multi-phone bi-directional amplifier repeater (Nextel/iDEN, 800 MHz Cellular) systems that rebroadcast a cellular carrier's signal throughout your building. We have solutions available for your business, home, car, truck or RV and all cellular carriers.

Whether you are looking for cell phone antennas, cell phone amplifiers or cell phone repeaters, we have the quality Wilson Cellular and Digital Antenna products that can help solve your cellular reception problem.

Wilson Cellular's new series of Smart Technology In-Building Cell Phone Amplifiers (cell phone repeaters) offer exceptional performance without causing harmful interference to the cell site.

The 50dB (801105), 60dB (801106) Smart Technology amplifiers as well as CM800/65dB, CM800/70dB are all in stock.

800MHz systems work for cellular systems using the 824MHz - 896MHz band. The band that your carrier is using depends on your zip code. In particular, this system is not compatible with iDEN (Nextel, Southern LINC, Mike) and PCS only carriers such as Sprint PCS and T-Mobile. If you are unsure of the frequency band you are using, please contact us.

Zip Code/Carrier Name: We require you to provide us with your carrier's name and the zip code where the system is to be used so that we can check system compatibility.

Note regarding 60dB amplifier: If you intend to purchase the 60dB amplifier or higher, please ensure that you have at least 70' of cable in your system to allow for adequate antenna separation and do not use if you have 'full' signal outside.

50dB (801105), 60dB (801106) Amplifier/Repeater Coverage Area Comparison using: 301111 - Wilson Cellular Yagi exterior antenna 50' (total) LMR-400 Cable 301121-WPS - Dual Band Cellular Dome / Ceiling antenna
Outside Signal (Test Mode)	Open Area Coverage Distance from Inside Antenna
Outside Signal (Test Mode)	801105 50dB	801106 60dB
Very Good (-60dB) Full Signal	1200' (Driving 2 antennas) May require attenuator	Too Strong!
Good (-75dB) Full Signal	300' or 200' (Driving 2 antennas)	Too Strong!
Marginal (-90dB) 2-3 bars	50'	175' or 110' (Driving 2 antennas)
Very Poor (-100dB) 0-1 bars (Not "No Service")	15'	50'

Open area estimates: Walls will decrease coverage distance. Metal, cement and cinderblock walls will severely attenuate or stop signal penetration.

Coverage area is primarily determined by the strength of the outdoor signal and the gain of the amplifier. To determine correct amplifier size, see chart above and documents below.

Antenna Separation:

In order for your system to function properly, you must maintain adequate separation between the interior and exterior antennas. The following rules will help you maintain adequate separation:

Ensure that the exterior Yagi antenna is aimed away from the interior dome antenna.
Ensure that you have 45' of separation between the interior and exterior antennas when using the 50dB Amplifier and 75' of separation between the antennas when using the 60dB amplifier or higher. Of that, at least 20' should be vertical separation (the Yagi should be mounted at least 20' higher than the interior dome antenna.)

How dB Affects Coverage:

A 6dB increase in signal doubles the interior coverage distance while a 6dB decrease will halve your interior coverage distance. Likewise, a 3dB increase will increase the interior coverage distance by 43% and a 3dB decrease will decrease it by 30%.

How you can increase the interior coverage distance/area (increase dB):

Use a larger amplifier: The extra 10dB of the 801106 60dB Wilson Cellular Amplifier (Cell Phone Repeater) for 800MHz Cellular will provide 3 times the interior coverage distance of the 801105 Wilson Cellular Amplifier 50dB Amplifier (Cell Phone Repeater) for 800MHz Cellular (9x the coverage area.) However, do not overpower your system (i.e: don't chose the 60dB amplifier or higher when you have full signal outside.)
Improve the signal from the tower: Mount the 301111 Wilson Cellular Yagi antenna higher or where there are less obstructions between it and the tower.
Use less cable: Every 50' of Ultra Low Loss Cable loses 2dB of signal. However, in order to maintain proper separation between the interior and exterior antennas, you must maintain at least 40' to 45' of separation between antennas when using the 50dB amplifier and 75' when using the 60dB amplifier or higher.
