CEL-FI Go T Repeater + Antenna – Telstra Review

You’ll agree with me that there are few things more frustrating than a bad network reception. This is even more frustrating when you’re in urgent need of a good network, and time is of the essence. You have to keep moving from one location to another within the house, searching for a strong connection.

What if  I told you that there’s a way to compensate for the weak reception in your area? What if you don’t have to worry about network connection whenever you’re traveling?

I introduce to you CEL-FI Go T Repeater + Antenna from Telstra. CEL-FI Go repeater receives a weak network signal regenerates and amplifies it so that nearby devices can enjoy better connectivity. Here’s a review of CEL-FI Go T Repeater + Antenna from Telstra.

CEL-FI Go T Repeater + Antenna – Telstra 

The first noteworthy feature about CEL-FI Go T Repeater is that it meets the Australian Communications and Media Authority (The ACMA), proving its quality. This product from Telstra can amplify and transmit a 3G (HSPA) or 4G (LTE) mobile signal. However, it will only boost one band at a time. It also includes a mountable Axis CLR8-5G Mobile Network Antenna.

This isn’t a bad thing, though, as your phone doesn’t need two frequency bands at a time. It’ll always connect to whichever frequency band is available and strongest. CEL-FI Go T Repeater allows you to select the frequency band manually or set it to automatic band selection through a button on the unit. You can also select through the WAVE app.

The WAVE app allows you to operate the Repeater and choose some settings from your phone. CEL-FI Go’s Automatic Gain Control (AGC) continuously monitors system path loss and can deliver a maximum gain of up to 70 dB. This is 30x more powerful than a standard antenna/cradle set-up.

We understand that you may have to install the Repeater in a place susceptible to a harsh environment, which is why CEL-FI Go has a rigid cast-aluminum casing with an IP54 rating. CEL-FI GO is covered by a 24-month warranty. You can power the repeater by connecting to a 12VDC via external supply OR cigarette socket. It also works with 100 to 240 VAC, 47–63Hz.

You can easily configure your CEL-FI Go to improve network reception for any vehicle, from cars to trucks to caravans, just with an antenna change.

Increases Mobile Data Speeds

Low network signal results in slow internet speeds. This makes browsing very frustrating on the go. With a CEL-FI repeater, you enjoy a dramatic boost in network signal. The result is a significant boost in data speed. Now you can enjoy accessing your emails and social media without a frustrating data speed.

Extends Mobile Phone Battery Life

When network reception is low, mobile phones consume more energy to pick a network connection. This is because the phone adjusts its power output to compensate for the poor signal. This increase in power output means your phone’s battery will drain faster. With CEL-FI GO, your phone doesn’t have to increase its power output as the indoor network reception remains strong. So your battery lasts longer.

Improves Voice Quality

Network signal strength also determines voice call quality, and a weak reception leads to breaking voices while on call. The repeater boost network reception and the result is a clearer voice quality while on call.
