The WilsonPro A500 Plus typically covers up between 75m2- 500m2 based on our customer response and install team. Your final coverage area depends on strong outside signal and little interference from inside the building. Refer to coverage and results below.
The three main causes of poor cellular reception in a building are cell tower distance, outside interference, and building material. It is especially true of building material in city & urban areas and of cell tower distance in rural areas.
Many legacy buildings are built with high-density materials such as thick concrete, brick, and metal which block cell signals. Many modern buildings use energy-efficient materials such as radiant barrier and low-energy glass that disrupt signals. Any combination of these obstructions interrupts cellular service inside the building.
This is why a WilsonPro commercial cell phone signal booster solves all three problems by reaching farther in the distance to and from the cell tower, bypassing any building material interference, and amplifying the signal inside. Consistent delivery. Consistent service. 24 hours a day.
For the majority of homes and small offices, the WilsonPro A500 is the most popular choice for better 4G LTE and 3G coverage & convenience.

Installation Overview
Installing the WilsonPro A500 Signal Booster kit system is fairly straightforward, but will require running cable from the roof or elevated location into the building, as well as potentially drilling and screwing in components.
Additionally, before you begin, we recommend that you start with a soft installation, where you don't permanently mount components, drill holes or finalize cable runs until you're sure that the system is performing to the level that you would like. Once you've tested out antenna and component locations, and are satisfied with the results, then you can go ahead and permanently install everything. Finally, read through the entire set of installation instructions both here and in the included manual before beginning, and feel free to call us with any questions before you proceed.
1
We'll start the installation from the roof and work our way into the building. First, start by determining the part of the roof that receives the best signal, as we'll want to locate the directional antenna there and ideally aim it away from the building (and not back over the roof). Once you've identified the portion of the roof which is best, locate the vertical pole which you'll be mounting the yagi directional antenna as high up on the roof as possible. Attach the directional antenna and temporarily aim it away from the building. Run the 10 meter cable from the antenna into the building.
2
Once the cable is inside the building, run the cable to the area where you plan to locate the amplifier. Attach the included lightning protector and then connect the 1.5 meter cable to the "Outside Antenna" port of the amplifier. Connect the 15 meter cable to the "Inside Port" on the other side of the amplifier, and run it to the location where you plan to mount the inside antenna. Attach the antenna and install either on the ceiling facing downwards, or on the wall facing across the area that you want to cover with boosted signal.
3
Once all of the components are connected, power on the amplifier by plugging it in. As it's powering up, you should see the lights flashing, and then check to see that they turn solid green. If the lights are not solid green, check out the portion of the owners manual that discusses the indicator lights to find out what they mean. Of, you can always contact us for help.
4
Directional antennas must be aimed for best results. When aiming and when mounting the antenna, make sure that it is parallel with the ground, do not aim it up at the sky or down at the ground. Start with the antenna high on the roof pointed in one direction. Turn on the system and have a person inside stand 3 meters in front of the inside antenna and take a signal reading with their phone in field test mode. Rotate the outside antenna 45 degrees (1/8th of the way around) and then pause for 60 seconds. After the pause, the person inside should take another signal reading from exactly the same spot, and then you can repeat the process. After you've gone all the way around, mount the antenna facing in the direction with the strongest signal (decibel signal reading will be closest to 0). If possible, also mount the antenna on that side of the home or office so that it's pointing away from the building and not over the building.
The included manual is very helpful and we recommend reading through it before beginning the installation. If you run into any issues, feel free to contact us for help.
* The actual coverage area of a signal booster is dependent on many factors including existing outside signal strength, obstructions between you and the cell tower, the materials used in your home or office, the layout of the area you need to cover with a boosted signal, and other factors. The approximate coverage areas listed above are estimates. Actual coverage area will vary based on these and other factors. If you're not sure if a system will be powerful enough for your needs, contact us to find out.

South AfricaA very solid unit that delivers
We struggled for months on a remote site with reliable 3G connectivity, and opted for the A500 unit. It was easy to install and has made a marked difference in voice quality as well as upload and download speeds.
