Wilson Electronics Launches Cloud-connected Cellular Signal Booster

Wilson Electronics has launched the WilsonPro Pro 1000C cloud-enabled cell signal booster system with remote monitoring capabilities for enhanced in-building cellular coverage in large commercial spaces.

The Pro 1000C sends status updates to the WilsonPro Cloud every five minutes, resulting in continual monitoring of performance and ability to instantly detect issues for end users. Previously, the company says, installers, integrators and end users had to wait until they were on-site to diagnose any cell booster issues. Now users can remotely troubleshoot problems by logging into the WilsonPro Cloud database to instantly view the signal strength of the various boosters they’ve installed, as well as how signal strength varies over time. The WilsonPro Cloud also gives users the option to remotely reset the Pro 1000C and turn bands on and off. Users can also set up personalized alerts via email and text message for issues including system failure, change in signal strength, oscillation and more.

The Pro 1000C connects to the WilsonPro Cloud via a secure LTE connection through the outside donor antenna or through a traditional RJ-45 “hardwired” Ethernet connection. The WilsonPro Cloud comes with an annual subscription plan, which covers the wireless LTE connection and database charges. An internet connection is not required to use the WilsonPro Cloud, ensuring end users’ personal internet connections stay completely separate and secure.

“The WilsonPro Cloud’s innovative capabilities allow users to remotely monitor the status of the Pro 1000C and troubleshoot any issues that arise, ensuring that their cell signal boosters are performing optimally, even when the users are off-site,” said Bruce Lancaster, CEO of Wilson Electronics. “Harnessing the power of the cloud, this industry-first solution will revolutionize the way that cell signal boosters are monitored and managed.”

Amplifying weak cellular signals, the Pro 1000C provides reliable voice and data coverage, including 4G LTE, to inside spaces where cell signals may not penetrate. It is compatible with all North American cell phone networks, simultaneously boosting all carrier signals at the same time.

The Pro 1000C features a full-color display which indicates the gain and power levels of each band for easy antenna setup. With eXtended Dynamic Range (XDR) technology built in, the amplifier will not overload or shut down due to changes in outdoor signals. Like all WilsonPro cellular signal boosters, the Pro 1000C also has cell site protections that auto-detect and prevent any cell tower interference, as well as a best-in-class warranty that protects the product for three years.

“We are an integrator in the Midwest with wireless network systems deployed across a large geographical area. The WilsonPro Pro 1000C with remote access provides both us and our clients the peace of mind knowing we can easily access devices in the field for monitoring, notification, and attaining active control of the repeaters,” said Vince Zagarri, owner of Zagarri Engineering. “We are very pleased that Wilson Electronics continues to lead the market by investing in the product line and getting feedback from the integrator community when deciding paths to take in product development.”
