With A Signal Booster Austin Cell Phone Users Will Always Be In Touch

By Sharon Hall


Cellular technology has revolutionized the world. Millions of people are now able to communicate freely. Millions of workers are now free to work away from their desks because they do not need to be near a land lines telephone. This has increased productivity and service levels. Previously, the only drawback was the fact that there are areas where the reception is very poor or non existent, causing lack of communication or dropped calls. Now, however, with a signal booster Austin users will never be out of reach.

The strength of cellular reception in a given area depends upon two main factors. The first is the distance that the user is from the transmitting tower. The further away he is, the weaker the reception will be. Service providers use a network of towers but there are always weak or even dead spots between towers. The other factor concerns the presence of obstructions such as mountains, tall buildings and even certain building material that are known to deflect or weaken signals.

Luckily, there is now a solution to the dilemma of poor reception. The answer is to install a special amplification device that will turn weak signals into strong and reliable ones. These devices not only amplify very weak signals, but they can also bypass obstructions and make sure that a specified area enjoys reception that is both strong and reliable.

These devices consist of three separate components. First there is an outside antenna that needs to be installed at a location where there is reception. This is normally as high up as possible. This antenna relays signals to an indoors amplifier with a cable. An indoors antenna then retransmits to the area where reception is necessary. The system works both ways. Signals from the phone is strengthened before being relayed to the tower.

Choosing a amplifying system should be undertaken with circumspect and several factors need to be considered. These devices will only amplify certain frequencies, so it is necessary to determine which networks and carriers the amplifier will need to support. This is important because this will determine the type of amplifier and antenna that will need to be purchased. If more than one carrier needs to be supported it will be necessary to install an omnidirectional antenna.

It is also important to think about the strength of the existing reception. Very weak reception will require much stronger amplifiers and of course their is a cost factor involved. The size and layout of the area that needs strong and reliable reception is also very important because this will determine type of indoor antenna that will be required. It will be more costly if the required reception area covers several floors of a building.

There are also some more affordable systems for individual use. These devices consist of a cradle designed to hold just one specific device. The device needs to be in the cradle at all times and the user have to make use of earphones or the speaker phone. In addition, it is possible to purchase amplifiers meant for use in boats and vehicles.

Weak or no reception have been one of the main frustrations for cellular phone users. The development of efficient amplifying systems has now overcome that problem. With these systems even more people will have access to the wonders of cellular technology.
