By Boosting Cellular Signal for T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular and Other Carriers Using the Band 71 (600 MHz) Frequency, the Pro 710i Will Make the Power of 5G a Reality for Businesses

SALT LAKE CITY – February 19, 2020 — Today, Wilson Electronics, the industry leader in cellular signal amplifier technology, announced the opening of pre-orders for the company’s first 5G cellular amplifier, the Pro 710i. The telecommunications industry has been laying the groundwork for 5G for several years, which includes increased traffic on the Band 71 (600 MHz) cellular frequency. The Pro 710i, a single-band, commercial-grade amplifier by WilsonPro, will boost cellular signals on Band 71 (600 MHz) and will be publicly available for purchase.

Representing the next generation of wireless network technology, 5G has been highly anticipated by businesses and consumers alike. From healthcare and financial services to public safety, retail and education, almost every industry will benefit from 5G’s transformative technology. 5G promises a faster, more responsive, low-latency cellular network that will further promote the Internet of Things (IoT) thanks to its ability to connect multiple smart devices using much faster download speeds and higher bandwidth.

The Pro 710i’s single, powerful indoor antenna port boasts +23 dBm of downlink power and provides up to 100,000 square feet of indoor coverage, making it a perfect fit for large commercial buildings looking to improve their 5G cellular connectivity. This includes hotels, healthcare facilities, schools, manufacturing plants, commercial and residential real estate properties and more.

The Pro 710i makes strong, reliable 5G signal available for an entire building’s tenants, employees and visitors who subscribe to carriers who utilize Band 71. This means lightning-fast download speeds, dramatically reduced latency and the ability to connect more IoT-enabled devices, finally making the long-awaited promise of 5G a reality.

“5G is poised to transform the wireless industry as we know it, with the potential to connect more people than ever before,” said Bruce Lancaster, CEO of Wilson Electronics. “But 5G signals will struggle to penetrate buildings, just as 4G signals struggle today, so cellular signal amplifiers will be the only way to make 5G accessible to the majority of users. Wilson Electronics has always been at the forefront of wireless technology innovation, and the upcoming release of the Pro 710i will allow large commercial buildings to take advantage of 5G’s rapid download speeds, enhanced connectivity and responsiveness for the first time.”

The versatile Pro 710i cellular amplifier can be used as a standalone product to support the ongoing 5G rollout on Band 71 for T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular and other carriers. It can also be easily installed to run in parallel with any existing WilsonPro amplifier system without the need to replace existing amplifiers.

Because the Pro 710i is certified under FCC Part 20 Industrial Cellular Amplifier Rules, applicable carrier approval is required for operation. However, unlike other 5G commercial cellular amplifiers currently on the market, the Pro 710i doesn’t require permission from every carrier prior to installation; instead, it only requires registration and approval by any carrier broadcasting Band 71 in that area.
