Common Customer Questions
Is it possible to purchase and use an extension cable?
Using an extension cable with your Clear Voice repeater is possible,
however there is a tradeo since additional cable attenuates and
weakens the cellular signal.
If an additional 30-feet of cabling allows you to acquire one or more bars
of signal, then we recommend purchasing an extension cable by visiting
our website or calling us. Our extension cables come with the required
adapter to extend your existing cable.
In situations where there is strong signal outside the building (3 bars or
more ), using 30-60 feet of cable is not a problem. However, if you have 2
bars or less of source signal, using an extension cable should be avoided
if possible.
Will the repeater improve signal on more than one level of my home
or oce?
Due to the nature of the omni directional antenna used with our repeater
(and with almost all other commercial repeaters) the improvement in
signal coverage is largely limited to the level on which the repeater is
installed (though some improvement will be seen on adjacent levels).
For this reason, you should install the Clear Voice amplier unit on the
same level where you will be using your cell phone.
Is the repeater system waterproof? Can it be installed outside?
The directional outdoor antenna is waterproof, and can be installed
outside. However the Clear Voice amplier unit is not waterproof and
must be installed indoors in a controlled temperature environment
(maximum ambient temperature for correct operation is 45°C).
Does the repeater support multiple network carriers?
The repeater will amplify the signal on all carriers operating on the
frequency band of the repeater in your area (either 800 or 1900 MHz,
depending on the model you have purchased).
