SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA--(Marketwired - June 2, 2015) - Nextivity Inc. today announced that Network Products Guide, the IT industry's leading technology research and advisory guide, has selected the Cel-Fi DUO as a finalist in the 10th Annual 2015 IT World Awards® in the Mobile and Wireless Solutions Category.

Cel-Fi DUO is an all digital, dual-band smart signal booster designed for use on 3G and 4G/LTE (including VoLTE) networks. It addresses the ongoing challenges that mobile subscribers face with poor mobile signal reception and dropped calls indoors by boosting signal strength from one bars to five bars, and eliminating in-building dead zones. Cel-Fi DUO is ideal for small and medium-sized businesses and for use in multi-level homes, providing the largest coverage footprint in the market - up to 13,000 square feet.

Cel-Fi DUO was built on Nextivity's proprietary third-generation Cel-Fi baseband processor for the indoor wireless coverage market. It offers dual-band support for up to 35MHz of boosted bandwidth, provides 10 times the gain of earlier versions, and 1,000 times more gain than other boosters in the market. It uses patented echo-cancellation algorithms for stronger signals in the coverage area. It is the only dual-band smart signal booster designed to simultaneously boost UMTS/WCDMA voice as well as LTE (including VoLTE) signals.

The annual IT World Awards recognition program encompasses the world's best in organizational performance, products and services, executives and management teams, successful deployments, product management and engineering, support and customer satisfaction, and public relations in every area of information technology.
