SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA — (Marketwired) — 04/23/15 — today announced the launch and availability of the cable accessory designed specifically for use in environments where radio frequency (RF) signal propagation is an issue, such as manufacturing, mining, marine, and parking facilities, etc. The new PRO-X accessory attaches to the (for AT&T subscribers), enabling a cabled connection between the smart signal booster–s Network and Coverage units to deliver a strong cellular signal even in the most challenging environments.
Addressing the signal interference challenge in select environments
The Cel-Fi PRO smart signal booster–s plug-and-play, two-unit system leverages the unlicensed 5GHz band to enable wireless communication between the Network and Coverage Units to bring a carrier–s cellular signal indoors. The Network Unit selectively captures the signal from a cell tower and wirelessly transmits that signal to the Coverage Unit, which then creates a bubble of indoor cellular coverage in spaces of up to 13,000 sq. ft. However, in some environments severe RF signal propagation challenges make it difficult for the Cel-Fi system to connect wirelessly.
How it works
Cel-Fi PRO-X is ideal in environments where a cabled connection between the Network and Coverage Unit is required. Professional installers simply slide the Cel-Fi PRO Network Unit into the PRO-X sleeve, and attach the LMR-200 cable to the front using an SMA connector. A second PRO-X adapter snaps onto the Coverage Unit, providing a SMA connector to attach the cable. Using the PRO-X, a cabled connection (of up to 40 meters) now exists between the Network Unit and the Coverage Unit. PRO-X is a passive coupling and as a result does not require any additional certification or power source.
“Cel-Fi PRO-X is the first accessory for the highly successful Cel-Fi PRO smart signal booster,” says Werner Sievers, CEO of Nextivity Inc. “While our system is all-wireless by deliberate design, introducing a cabled option simply enables users to overcome poor indoor signal propagation in extremely difficult situations. It–s a cost-effective and very simple remedy to enable mobile connectivity in challenging work environments.”
