Booster Expands Cell Phone Range
If you frequently have a poor cell phone signal when you’re on the road, the Wilson Electronics Drive Reach can maximize any available signal for better service.
As a cellular signal booster, it offers a powerful way to connect up smartphones, tablets and other cellular-enabled devices in a connected vehicle.
The standard model covers the entire interior of standard-sized cars or pickups. It can boost up to four cellular devices simultaneously.     
Your phone will automatically pick up the boosted signal once the Drive Reach is activated. The device only works within vehicles. Step outside, and you’ll lose the amplification. Specialized Drive Reaches are also available for RVs, trucks and semis, fleet vehicles and boats.
Thanks to its increased uplink output, Drive Reach users can access signals up to twice as far from towers at over twice the signal strength. According to Wilson Electronics, it has the highest uplink output of any commercially available vehicle booster.
Each Drive Reach kit includes an amplifier/repeater, a mini magnet mount antenna, a low-profile inside antenna, a power source, and an installation guide.
To install, place the magnetic antenna on the vehicle’s roof and run a cable inside. You’ll need to use the included adhesive disk to mount it if your roof is aluminum. Place the drive reach amplifier under a seat and mount the inside antenna on either the side of a seat or on the dashboard. Connect the antennas to the amplifier, plug in the power source, and you’re good to go.
Prices per unit vary based on the model; the standard Drive Reach is available for $499.
