Working in an industrial building comes with many challenges, and getting a strong cell phone signal is often one of the most annoying. Whether you’re in a mill, foundry, manufacturing plant or distribution center, you know that communication is essential for you and your team.

Many industrial buildings are made of thick, sturdy building materials that can easily block cell signal out and leave you with slow data and dropped calls inside. What should you do to solve the weak cell signal problem inside your industrial facility or warehouse?

industrial signal booster

WilsonPro creates a solution called a cell signal amplifier or an industrial signal booster, that will boost cell signal inside your building to give you reliable cell service indoors. They work with all carriers, networks and devices so everyone will benefit from stronger signal.

Benefits of Improved Cell Signal in Your Industrial Facility

There are many reasons that an industrial facility needs strong cell connectivity to operate efficiently and would benefit from an industrial cell phone booster.

  • Communication with vendors, salespeople, friends or family with a cellular-connected device.
  • Communication with emergency personnel in case of an accident or emergency situation.
  • Employee job satisfaction when they are able to check in with friends and family during breaks throughout the day or browse the internet.
  • Ensure digital and cellular operated technology and machinery is running efficiently.
  • Ensure that purchasing or inventory technology that relies on the cellular network is always functioning optimally.

How to Solve Connectivity Issues In an Industrial Building

Solving connectivity issues in an industrial building are daunting, as many of these facilities are old, their architectural plans long-since forgotten and lost, and the brick, concrete, metal, and masonry diminishes the cell signal, or nullifies it entirely. Combine this with the fact that industrial areas are often under-served by cell towers, and you’ve got a recipe for frustration.

The best way to boost signal in an industrial setting is by utilizing existing strong outdoor signals and amplifying them within the building with a WilsonPro industrial cell phone signal booster. Below is a brief overview of the installation process or learn more in this guide here.

Get a Needs Assessment

Speak with a WilsonPro representative about your cell signal troubles in your industrial building and determine the plan moving forward. They will also connect you with an installer or integrator that will come to your site to design the installation plan and install the industrial signal booster.

Get a Site Survey

Your integrator will conduct a complete assessment to accurately determine the source of the strongest cell signal in your area and which carriers/network get the best and worst signal there. The integrator will note the strongest and weakest signal areas inside your building. This helps them to create a customized installation plan for the industrial signal booster.

Installation of Equipment

On the roof of the building a donor antenna will be fixed, usually attaching to a vent pipe or post, or a specially built mount.

Inside the building, the installer will put in broadcast antennas, in accordance with the plan they made from the site survey. These will be mounted on the walls or ceiling.

Finally, the industrial signal booster will be installed. The amplifier requires a power supply and adequate ventilation to function properly. Depending on the model, they can be mounted on a wall or put in a server room.
