Last year, Verizon announced it will use signal repeaters from SureCall, as well as FRTek, to increase its 5G Ultra Wideband coverage. For the test, the Horizon was placed 100 meters from the base station (for a total of 200 meters away) and repeated the signal 100 meters away. The tests were completed in San Jose, California, where the base station was consistently transmitting more than 3 Gbps, at 100 meters. It allows carriers to increase the coverage area of a single base station by boosting the signal in multiple directions, to overcome obstructions and fill coverage gaps. Our technology provides an essential and cost-effective boost for carriers as they build out their 5G networks, and now we can say, provides incredible improvements to signal quality, speed and strength.”įor this test, SureCall used its Horizon 5G mmWave network signal booster. SureCall’s CEO Hongtao Zhan said: “These recent tests showcase the viability of SureCall’s network booster technology and how it will play an essential role in the building out of the 5G infrastructure. At a total distance of 100 meters from the Horizon network booster – in an area where there was no Verizon 5G UWB signal without the Horizon – SureCall’s booster provided speeds of nearly 3 Gbps. The team tested download and upload speeds for Verizon’s 5G UWB network in an area where, without the Horizon, mmWave data speeds were not found as man-made obstructions were blocking the 5G UWB signals.Īfter activating SureCall’s Horizon network signal booster and measuring from multiple distances from the 5G mmWave base station, speed and signal strength improved significantly, the company said. In a release, SureCall stated that the field study consistently produced near 3 Gbps of data speed. 5G signal booster vendor SureCall has announced the results of a field-based study of its Horizon booster on Verizon’s 5G mmWave Ultra Wideband (UWB) network.
