ATLANTA, GA (PRWEB) November 1, 2006 -- Wi-Ex, Inc. (www.wi-ex.com), a leader in developing products that enhance cell phone signal coverage, announced their latest product, zBoost Dual Band ProPack (YX610-PCS-CEL) for the Professional Installer. It is shipping immediately. zBoost Dual Band ProPack, a revolutionary cell phone signal booster, is designed for demanding professional coverage applications and increases coverage up to 10,000 square feet. The zBoost ProPack Series uses a Bi-Directional Amplifier (BDA) System that captures and amplifies the cell signal and Extends a Cell ZoneTM. This reliable product captures and amplifies both the 800MHz signal and 1900MHz bands simultaneously and increases the signal coverage while decreasing dropped or missed calls.
Increasing the indoor coverage translates into increased productivity and savings. Some of the benefits include extending the battery life, replacing landlines phones, reducing or eliminating dropped calls and increasing wireless applications such as instant messaging, 3G high-speed data picture mail and more
"We wanted to make it easy for professional installers to sell our product. They do not to want to play 'mind-reader' and know their client's current or future frequencies - the zBoost Dual Band ProPack covers them all - except Nextel," says, Lloyd R. Meese, President and CEO of Wi-Ex. "Future compatibility is important for users. For instance, some carriers may use one frequency for voice and another for data on new communication devices. zBoost already works with those newer devices and their carriers. We'll continue to develop products in the professional installer area that are future-compatible. In addition, like all of our products, zBoost Dual Band ProPack uses patent-pending technologies that protect the carrier network," adds Meese.
The product package includes an antenna configuration system consisting of two antennas, a Yagi Antenna for Cellular and a Panel Antenna for the PCS band. An antenna combiner is included to combine the signals from the two antennas onto one coaxial cable for connection to the zBoost Base Unit. For best signal enhancement, the antennas should be installed in the attic or outside where the cell signal may be stronger.
A high percentage of cellular calls nationwide experience poor quality or loss of signal strength when using a cell phone in their office or home.* This loss of coverage may be due to environmental obstructions, building materials, metal roofs, high-speed data (reduces coverage) and network interference.
"With a worldwide subscriber base of 2 billion and a large percentage of indoor coverage problems, we will continue to address this issue. The zBoost Dual Band product increases cellular coverage indoors on both bands and works simultaneously with most carriers including Cingular, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon," adds Meese. "It addresses the issue that some carriers bounce from 800 MHz to 1900 MHz depending upon the signal strength. So an installer can buy this unit and cover their clients either way. We see this as one more step closer to helping people replace landlines."
The zBoost for Professionals is only sold to professional installers, such as CEDIA members (www.cedia.org). zBoost ProPack is also easy to install, affordable with good margins for installers and has the same sleek consumer-friendly design of the strong-selling single-band versions, the zBoost YX600-PCS and zBoost YX600-CEL.
