What do the new FCC regulations on signal boosters really mean?

This week's FierceWireless is brought to you by Wilson Electronics.

What Do the New FCC Regulations on Signal Boosters Really Mean? Tighter FCC specifications on Signal Boosters=Better Boosters For All! "Beginning March 1, 2014, all signal boosters will need to incorporate the new cell site protection standards developed by Wilson Electronics and Verizon Wireless in order to receive FCC certification. Today, Wilson Electronics signal boosters already include these safeguards. The net result is that this ruling will effectively keep cellular towers protected while eliminating poorly made boosters." Boosters help with Customer retention and Customer satisfaction Boosters can solve coverage problems for carriers, and can serve as a valuable tool for increasing customer voice and data traffic in poor service areas. A recent study by a large carrier revealed that subscribers who used signal boosters attained increased ARPUs in the $120 to $127 range. Best of all, BOOSTERS ARE NOW LEGITIMATE! Though in the past all signal boosters have been FCC certified, testing was performed to inadequate testing standards. This resulted in annoying, disruptive cases of interference and therefore friction with the carriers. In the past many also believed that signal boosters were illegal. As a result, boosters have existed in a gray area, while solving many dropped call problems for consumers and increasing customer retention. The new FCC ruling legitimizes booster use and raises the bar on booster site protection standards. As a result a number of carriers have already filed with the FCC their blanket approvals for signal boosters certified under the new rules. Attending CCA Global, April 19th in New Orleans, LA?
