Wilson Pro 1100 (460147/461147) Signal Booster Kit

High performance booster system that boosts signal on all US and Canadian cell carriers.

Description

Released in May 2019, the Wilson Pro 1100 is a powerful cell signal amplifier that boosts 2G, 3G, and 4G LTE voice and data coverage on all major US and Canadian carriers.

The Wilson Pro 1100 uses the strongest downlink power (15 dBm) permitted by the FCC to provide the largest possible indoor signal coverage. Wilson Electronics XDR (Extended Dynamic Range) technology balances and compensates for strong incoming signal to prevent system shutdowns.

The Pro 1100 is ideal for large homes and commercial buildings. It supports multiple simultaneous users, and it supports all cellular devices and all cell phone carriers.

5 Critical Tips for the Wilson Pro 1100:

1. Deciding between the 50-Ohm and 75 Ohm systems

The Wilson Pro 1100 comes in two flavors:

  • 460147 with N-type connectors and 50 Ohm cable (our recommendation)
  • 461147 with F-type connectors and 75 Ohm cable

Which should you buy? Well. it depends on which is more important to you: ease of install, or performance.

F-type connectors and 75 Ohm cable are the standard for cable TV and satellite connections, but they're typically lower performance. The cables are more lossy, which means weaker signal. However, the benefit is that if you have existing RG11 cable in the building, you can use the same cable to install your Pro 1100.

N-type connectors and 50 Ohm cable offer better performance. That means your cables will have lower loss, and thus your installed system will have a larger coverage area.

All else being the same, we recommend choosing the 460147 variant with N-type connectors to maximize the performance of the system. However, if you have a compelling reason to use F-type variant, like existing tools or cabling you can use to make your install easier, go for it! The overall performance difference is relatively small.

2. Take signal measurements before you buy

The Wilson Pro 1100 can cover up to an area of up to 35,000 square feet, but only if your outdoor signal is strong enough. This isn't true for just the Pro 1100, but across the board for all signal boosters.

We strongly recommend measuring your outdoor signal and speaking to our team of Signal Experts before you purchase. Our Signal Experts can help guide you to the best solution based on your signal conditions.

3. Getting your outdoor antenna positioned correctly is critical

As we explain in our Signal Booster Guide, the bars on your phone are more than just signal strength. Signal quality is absolutely critical.

The only way to improve the signal quality coming into your booster is getting the outdoor antenna positioned correctly. Our team of Signal Experts can help guide you as you install the Pro 1100.

4. Consider the Wilson Pro 1000C

If you're in a larger, commercial space, you may want to consider the Wilson Pro 1000C. Released in early 2019, the Wilson Pro 1000C includes robust, cloud monitoring via a built-in LTE modem. If you'd like to be able to set up alarms in case of any issues, the Pro 1000C is worth considering.

5. Consider the GO X and the Cel-Fi QUATRA 2000

Two units that compete with the Pro 1100 are the Cel-Fi GO X and the Cel-Fi QUATRA 2000. Both of these units are considered "carrier-specific" boosters by the FCC, which means they're that the FCC allows them to have 100 decibels gain. The extra gain means the QUATRA and GO X work better in remote areas with very weak outdoor signal. The QUATRA also uses ethernet cable in place of coaxial cable.

It's not all upside, though. The QUATRA 2000 and GO X have both benefits and disadvantages. For example, the GO X only works with one carrier at a time. The Quatra only works with 2 carriers at a time, so you need two sets for 4-carrier coverage. Installation can also be a little more complicated than the Wilson Pro products.

6. The Wilson Pro 1100 is designed to be part of a custom-designed system

For an ideal installation, the Pro 1100 should be designed into a custom system, with multiple antennas, splitters, couplers, and custom-length cables.

We offer complimentary design services using the industry-standard iBwave in-building design software. Simply contact our Signal Specialists and we'll chat through your building and requirements and help put together a custom solution for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if my Internet connection goes down?

If your Internet connection goes down, the Verizon 4G LTE Network Extender 3 will stop working until the Internet is available. If you need a solution that does not require Internet connectivity, consider a cell booster instead.

Is the Verizon 4G LTE Enterprise Network Extender 3 compatible 1xRTT, 2G CDMA or 3G service?

No, the unit only broadcasts LTE signal. Every phone released since 2014 supports "Voice over LTE" (also known as VoLTE or HD Voice) technology as the default way for making calls and sending texts. Verizon is planning on shutting down their 2G CDMA network in 2019. Older phones (from before 2014) will not be able to make calls or send texts using the LTE signal generated by the Verizon 4G LTE Network Extender for Enterprise.

Can I use more than one Verizon 4G LTE Network Extender 3 for Enterprise in the same building?

Yes, absolutely. Multiple Verizon 4G LTE Network Extenders can be installed in the same building, and devices will hand off seamlessly from one device to the next. You can read more about how to arrange the devices in the Deployment Guide.

Can I limit access to the extender to specific users?

No - any Verizon devices in range of the device will connect to the Verizon 4G LTE Network Extender 3 for Enterprise. The Network Extender can support up to 64 active users and 300 idle users. In most cases, you shouldn't see any performance issues by having unknown devices using the signal.

I have a firewall - do specific ports need to be opened for the Verizon 4G LTE Network Extender 3 for Enterprise to work?

Yes - you will need to either put the units on a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) or open ports 50, 500, 4500, 53 and 52428.

How do I know if I'm connected to the Verizon 4G LTE Network Extender 3?

You can check by dialing #48 - you'll hear an announcement stating your connection to the Verizon 4G LTE Network Extender 3 for Enterprise.

Will I drop my call if I walk into range or move out of range of the Verizon 4G LTE Network Extender 3?

No, your call won't drop, provided there is sufficient coverage for your phone to hand-off to the outdoor "macro" cellular network.
