Cellular Specialties Unveils New Public Safety In-Building Coverage Signal Booster at APCO 2010

New 700/800 MHz Public Safety Coverage Enhances First Responder Communications


MANCHESTER, NH--(Marketwire - July 29, 2010) -  Cellular Specialties, Inc. (CSI), a recognized leader in the design and implementation of in-building wireless products and turnkey installations, announced the unveiling of its new T51080 Signal Booster for enhancing in-building communications for fire, police, EMTs and other first responders, at the upcoming APCO 2010 Annual Conference, August 1-4, Houston, Texas (Booth # 1555). Today's announcement underscores the need to provide strong radio reception within stairwells, parking garages and interior building locations, helping to improve first responder wireless coverage, resulting in better rescue efforts between in-building first responders and outside coordination teams.

CSI's public safety offerings support the U.S. Government's mandates -- derived from the 9/11 tragedy -- for unencumbered, first responder wireless coverage. David Tuttle, CSI's director of Public Safety Business Development, explains the significance: "Many buildings throughout the country still experience significant RF dead spots that obstruct radio communications. This situation poses a major safety hazard for first responders and individuals requiring emergency services. CSI is addressing this on-going problem with the development of new technology innovations that cost-effectively amplify first responders' weak radio signals to provide clear communications."

CSI's new T51080 signal booster offers:

  • 80 dB Gain
  • +27 dBm composite output power
  • Frequency range of 763-775/851-861 or 866-869 MHz to 793-805/806-816 or 821-824 MHz
  • NEMA Type 4 Enclosure
  • Easy Installation, Precision Setup and Maintenance
  • Adjustable 800 MHz Sub Band filters; 3 & 10 MHz
