Coverage And Results
Your outside signal strength — especially where your outdoor antenna is placed — plays a big role in how much indoor coverage you’ll get. This table gives a rough guide based on real-world testing. Results may vary.
| Outside Signal | Signal Strength (dB) | Est. Indoor Coverage |
|---|---|---|
| 5 Bars | -40 to -70 dB | Up to 750 m² |
| 4–5 Bars | -70 to -80 dB | Up to 600 m² |
| 3–4 Bars | -85 to -95 dB | Up to 460 m² |
| 2–3 Bars | -95 to -105 dB | Up to 325 m² |
| 1–2 Bars | -105 to -115 dB | Up to 185 m² |

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between the A500 and A1000?
The WilsonPro A500 is a great fit for homes in urban or suburban areas where there’s fair outdoor signal—it’s designed to cover 1–2 rooms effectively. It’s perfect for boosting signal in spaces like home offices, bedrooms, or lounges.
The WilsonPro A1000 is a more powerful system designed for homes with poor outdoor signal and/or those located farther from cell towers. It can cover up to 4 rooms and is better suited for areas where signal is weak or inconsistent.
Here’s where the power difference comes in:
A500 offers up to 70 dB of gain, while the A1000 offers up to 74 dB.
4 dB increase represents nearly 2.5 times more signal amplification power, which can make a substantial difference in low-signal environments.
In addition to gain, there’s also a difference in amplifier output power:
A500 has lower uplink and downlink power, meaning it can’t reach as far to connect with distant towers or push strong signal through larger or more signal-blocking structures.
A1000 offers higher uplink/downlink output, enabling it to communicate more effectively with distant cell towers and push stronger signal indoors over a wider area.
So, if you’re in an area with weaker outdoor signal, or your home is constructed with materials that block signal, the A1000 is the more capable and future-proof option.
What is the A1000 and how does it work?
The A1000 is a high-performance cell phone signal booster designed to improve voice and data coverage inside buildings. It captures the outdoor signal, amplifies it, and rebroadcasts it indoors, giving you stronger signal where you need it most.
How big of an area does it cover?
Under excellent outdoor signal conditions, the A1000 can be split into up to four indoor broadcasting antennas and cover as much as 1000m². However, in real-world environments – especially where outdoor signal is weak or building materials block signal – actual coverage may be significantly less. It's always best to assess your outdoor signal strength before estimating coverage.
Can I install it myself?
Yes – the A1000 comes with a complete DIY installation kit, including a 15-metre and a 10-metre coaxial cable to connect your outdoor and indoor antennas to the amplifier. It’s designed for straightforward setup with step-by-step instructions.
However, for more complex installations or if you need a custom solution, we highly recommend using our professional installation team to ensure optimal performance and compliance with best practices.
Will the A1000 work in rural or remote areas?
Absolutely – as long as there's some outdoor signal, the A1000 can boost it indoors. For extremely weak areas, pairing the A1000 with a high-gain outdoor antenna like our Long Ranger or Arrow LPDA is recommended.
What’s the warranty and return policy?
The A1000 comes with a 2-year warranty and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Will this boost 4G or just calls?
Yes – the A1000 boosts both voice and data signals, including 3G, 4G, and LTE, depending on what your mobile network provides in your area.
However, it’s important to note that the booster does not increase your internet speed beyond what your mobile network or ISP already offers. What it does do is provide your phone or LTE device with a stronger, more stable signal, which leads to more consistent data speeds, fewer dropped calls, and better overall performance – especially indoors or in areas with weak coverage.
Do I need surge protection for my A1000 booster?
Yes. Like any electronic device, the A1000 is vulnerable to power surges and lightning strikes, which can cause permanent damage to the system. Surge protection is essential to keep your booster safe and functioning reliably.
To protect your investment, we strongly recommend plugging your booster into a surge protector plug and installing the lightning surge protector (included with your kit), making sure it is properly grounded.
Is it safe to use in my home or office?
Yes – the A1000 is completely safe to use in homes, offices, and vehicles. It meets all local and international safety and emissions standards, including those set by ICASA.
In fact, using a signal booster can actually reduce your exposure to radiation. When your phone struggles to find signal, it emits higher levels of radiation to stay connected. With a booster like the A1000 improving your signal, your phone can operate more efficiently at lower power levels.
To put it in perspective: holding a cell phone next to your head emits more radiation than having a signal booster quietly installed in a corner of your home or car.
