Mobile Phone Signal Booster Installations
Poor mobile phone reception can cause problems in offices, warehouses, hotels, homes and large campus buildings.
Dropped calls, weak signals and unreliable mobile connections can make everyday communication difficult, particularly in workplaces where staff rely on their phones.
NM Cabling provides mobile phone signal booster installations to help improve indoor mobile coverage.
A signal booster system is designed to capture an available external mobile signal and distribute it within a building, helping to provide more reliable coverage in areas where reception is poor.
We can install mobile signal booster systems in a range of commercial and residential environments, with solutions suited to the building layout, existing signal strength and coverage requirements. From individual offices to larger warehouses and multi-unit sites, the aim is to improve mobile connectivity where it is needed most.
Where can a Mobile Phone Signal Booster Help?
What are the causes of poor mobile signal ?
The main causes of bad mobile signal are;
- Distance from the telephone mast
- Obstacles in the way (i.e. buildings / hills)
- Construction materials of the building you are in or even the buildings surrounding you (i.e. metal works / thick concrete)
What does a mobile phone signal booster provide?
A mobile signal booster is designed to receive the outside signal strength from a high point on the building. Therefore he signal is then duplicated into the property with as little loss as possible. Essentially, if you are getting 5 bars of 4G on the outside of your building you should be expecting to receive something similar on the inside
How does an indoor cell signal booster work?
The system is split into 3 main areas.
1) A Central Amplifier within the building to boost the signal whenever there is a lack of signal
2) Next an antenna is situated externally to receive the initial mobile signal
3) Lastly an internal antennas that take the enhanced signal from the amplifier and distribute around the required coverage area
Phone signal booster solutions offered by NM Cabling Solutions
Our solution requires an in-depth survey of the property. Therefore we start by initially looking at the routes for cabling required and the floor space to be covered by the signal. For this reason larger separate floors will usually require more units than a a single larger floor
To begin with an external antenna will be mounted at a high point on the building. In the first instance this usually the roof. Indeed in some occasions it will be on the side of the building. As a result the antenna will receive the signal from the nearest mast with the strongest signal.
Finally the data cabling is then installed to the internal signal boosters to allow the amplified signal to reach the boosters. In addition this directs the signal to the correct frequency throughout the building.
Thus as long as the system is installed correctly by a specialist, this can give you the best possible outcome of full 4G as per the outside signal. Hence your employee mobile coverage and speeds will increase
Are Mobile Phone Signal Boosters Legal
Within the Wireless Telegraphy (Mobile Repeater) (Exemption) Regulations 2018 that came into force on 12th April 2018 it was deemed that two types of repeaters would be legal when complying with required technical criteria. In summary those of static boosters for indoor use and those used within vehicles. Therefore it is ultimately the indoor static boosters are the region where we focus our installations
Where can Mobile Phone Signal Boosters be used?
Common areas of Mobile signal booster installation are as follows:
– Underground Parking Garages, likewise basement areas
– High Rise Offices such as Canary Wharf or The Leadenhall Building
– Docklands Office Locations. Specifically we have worked in Butlers Wharf
– Large Office buildings with large gaps to outside walls
– Warehouses. Likewise Distribution Centres
– Hospitals and Medical Centres
– Retail Shops and Shopping Centres
Mobile Phone Signal Booster Installation Process
1. Site Survey and Signal Assessment
We assess the existing mobile signal, the building layout and the areas where improved coverage is required. This helps us determine the best position for the external antenna and plan the internal distribution of the signal.
2. System Design and Installation Planning
Using the survey findings, we plan the installation, including the position of the signal amplifier, internal antennas and required cabling. The design takes account of the building’s size, layout and the coverage needed across individual rooms or floors.
3. External Antenna and Cabling Installation
We install an external antenna in a suitable position to receive the strongest available mobile signal. Cabling is then installed to connect the antenna to the signal amplifier and distribute the signal to the internal antennas.
4. Internal Antenna Installation
Internal antennas are positioned throughout the required coverage areas to distribute the improved mobile signal around the building. The number and position of the antennas depend on the layout of the property and the coverage required.
5. System Checks and Handover
Once the installation is complete, the system should be checked to confirm that the equipment is operating correctly and that mobile coverage has improved in the intended areas.
NM Cabling can provide mobile phone signal booster installations for offices, warehouses, hotels and other buildings where poor indoor reception affects everyday communication.
