- Smart Signal Booster™
- Simple installation
- Clean and compact industrial design
- Integrated antennas
- Auto-configured & Self-Contained
- LED User Interface (UI)
- May also be used where 5GHz channel space is restricted (Cel-Fi PRIME does not utilize a wireless link between
Network and Coverage Units) - Unlocked: Cell phones do not need to be registered with Cel-Fi PRIME to benefit
- Peaceful coexistence with adjacent Cel-Fi systems
- Remote software update capability
- Support for Cel-Fi WAVE mobile & desktop applications
- End-to-end cellular communication encryption without additional risk of vulnerability
- Mounting bracket included
- Supports voice and data services: WCDMA/HSPA+/LTE (FDD)
- System gain up to 80dB using internal integrated Donor antenna in each supported band, simultaneously
- Max EIRP for multiple carriers: 125dBm downlink and 24dBm uplink, per band*
- Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) communication with smartphones
- Peaceful coexistence with adjacent 80211 (24 GHz & 5 GHz), femtocell, and cellular devices
- Automatic Gain Control (AGC) based on fast real-time echo-cancellation
- Advanced digital echo-cancellation (>30dB) and channel select filtering algorithms
- Cel-Fi actively manages the cellular link between the cell tower and user devices
- Extremely linear RF front end
- Adaptive signal equalization
- Based on Nextivity’s 3rd-generation (ARES) chipset
- The Cel-Fi design satisfies emerging regulatory requirements to improve performance and protect networks (FCC,
ACME, Ofcom - Support for E-UTRA bands 1 (2100 MHz) & 3 (1800 MHz)
- Cel-Fi simultaneously supports multiple channels with cellular bandwidths from 5 to 20 MHz
- Electrically steerable antennas to combat pilot pollution and ensure the best possible donor signal
- Total system relay bandwidth of 40 MHz
- Support for 3GPP Rel 10 features
- Seamless integration with the Macro networks
- Provider specific booster: Cel-Fi PRIME boosts service only for the Operator PLMNIDs the device is authorized &
configured for Secure and ciphered provisioning - Software-managed system intelligence prevents uplink system gain from exceeding path loss, eliminating unnecessary
rise in base station noise level - Uplink Muting Mode automatically shuts down uplink cellular transmissions when no active user equipment is detected
- System shuts down upon Operator’s network command or failure detection
- Location Lock, which ensures the device is only being used in the location it was deployed to (software configuration option)
- User/System Registration options available
- Improve indoor cellular coverage!
- Anyone can install the device. Simply attach to window frame or wall with mount (included) and plug in.
- The unit can be displayed, or easily placed in the background
- No external antenna mounting and cabling required
- No setup or ongoing maintenance needed, nor reliance upon internet, GPS, or handsets to be configured on the system
- Product Registration, Software Updates, and Engineering application support, with the Cel-Fi WAVE app
- Simpler remote maintenance of devices in the field, with Cel-Fi WAVE cloud access
- Any subscriber device from the configured Operator will benefit from improved coverage
- All cellular communications remain encrypted and secure
- Multiple systems can be deployed without concern for mutual interference
- User Interface (UI) LED provides instant visual feedback for ease of setup
- Clear and reliable voice connections within coverage area—up to 1,200 ft2
(110 m2), more for open spaces - Real-time adapting capability ensures the best possible user experience, in actual user environments, which are
constantly changing, with a variety of Wi-Fi types and cellular signals present - Bluetooth LE enables the system to communicate with smartphones and the Cel-Fi WAVE mobile app, improving the
user experience and adding capability to the product - Ensures maximum gain—best coverage—at all times in ever changing RF environments, without user intervention
- Subscriber devices transmit much less power and enjoy improvements in battery life
- Linearity virtually eliminates Intermodulation Desense (IMD) issues
- Maximizes signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio—provides better data rates without negatively impacting macro cells
- Cel-Fi remains fully functional, even when there are other RF emitters present
- Supports LTE and UMTS/WCDMA
- Easily supports multiple band and frequency configurations on a cellular network with one device
- Reduce returns, customer care calls, and provide the best product experience to users
- Unlike wideband amplifiers, ensure the equipment capex benefits only your network—third-party macro cells are not boosted by Cel-Fi PRIME
- Network operators can be assured Cel-Fi devices are being used as intended, with registration and location lock options
- Completely network safe, doesn’t degrade macro capacity
- Ultimate control of the devices in the field resides with the network operator
- Operating temperature: 0° to 40°C
