Internet signal booster: the principle of operation and technologies due to which the signal is transmitted over a long distance

A story about the technologies due to which the Internet connection amplifier works on the example of a specifically selected amplifier.





I needed a cellular signal amplifier that works at a distance of at least 15 km from the "tower". I searched the net. Found several options. Compared. Being a little savvy user in the field of cellular communications, I decided to figure out what's what. What for? Interesting.





So, what did I find, what I chose, how I understood the technology of what, how and why works over such a long distance.

I need such an amplifier so that I can surf and watch videos without any problems. With it, you can get a stable ping throughout the entire session, so that you can stream and watch live broadcast. To install this, you only need a vertical pipe, and to connect - a SIM card of any operator, a pair of patch cords and, if necessary, a router. Ten minutes of work - and even where smartphones cannot load a simple page, reliable and high-speed Internet appears.





Bottom line. The chosen antenna fully meets my goals.
