How It Works

HomeCell^TM brings cellular and PCS phone signals into dwellings where little or no signal currently exists.  HomeCell^TM’s external antenna is mounted in a place outside your home where you get good cellular signal.  This is usually the place you go to outside your home when you want to make a cellular powphone call!  If you don’t know where the signal is good, then mounting the antenna on the roof or in the attic usually works fine. 

HomeCell^TM  takes that signal from the outside antenna and brings it into your home through a cable that is attached to the antenna.  That signal is then transmitted throughout the house by the HomeCell^TM bi-directional amplifier.  The cable that is connected to the outside antenna is connected on the other end to the HomeCell^TM amplifier.  Just place the HomeCell^TM amplifier on a table or shelf close to where the signal is worse in your home and the signal is then distributed through out your house.  In addition, the signal from your cell phone is picked up by the small antenna mounted on the HomeCell^TM  unit and is amplified, transmitted the other way through the cable, to the outside antenna and to the cellular network.  The coverage in your home will depend on the level of received signal outside the home but typically the unit will cover 1000-2500 square feet.
