If I buy the "Wilson Electronics MobilePro Cell Phone Signal Booster for Car and Home / Office" then why do I need this other than the stand? Isn't the transformer already included?

NO!, but it will enhanced the signal. I have both, one for the house and the other for the car.

If I understand you correctly, the booster comes with a car power supply. The kit contains a home power supply and antenna and mount for your window.

I ny case, I got the extra only because I was desperate to get as much possible signal as I could (ny location is really bad), but I would think it is unnessecary in most applications.

The owners manual says that the automobile version requires that the phone be within 1-2 feet of the internal Antenna. For a large motor home you may want to consider buying the "home" version of the booster. Wilson's tech support is great. I always call them before I make a decision on which unit to buy. They have really been a great help in determining which model will best fit your needs.

Included with this device is a power supply, but what you'll need is a length of coax cable (the same type which carries the TV /cable signal) to carry the power from the adapter to the booster. This was not included in my package. The length required will of course depend on how far away the splitter is from the power outlet.

It boosts the cellular signal in the phone. So say you have 3g or 4g or lte on your phone. By sitting your phone in this cradle you get more bars. Or in areas where there be no bars it will usually give you a weak signal. You must have a cell phone plan active for this to work. It's not free signal. It is not designed for WIFI either. Just for cellular. Also Wilson makes a model for 3g, 4g, and LTE so make sure you get the correct model for your phone type

The one that it comes with works fine but for better performance get a boosted antenna and make sure it has the sma connection, the gold connector on the cord. I have 2 antenna's, one that came with my dvd/nav deck which is boosted and the other that comes with the boyo box. Boosted is better, also the ground and 12v wire, hook to any ground source but the 12v I connected it to my car lighter power wire under my deck using wire crimps.

Julie, that is why I installed the product. With a metal roof, I had no signal. This is supposed to extend/boost the signal. After I had mine installed, I have signal in my basement! Now there was an app " Open Signal" that I used to find where to install the antenna to get the best strength. So, I would say he didn't install it correctly. Mine works well and so does my sons and one of my clients installed his in a shop with a metal roof to get a signal. Have him come back to install properly!

Hello, you certainly need this item:Wilson Electronics Dual Band - 800-1900 MHz Magnet Mount Antenna with SMA Male Connector and 10-Foot RG174 Coax Cable. This antenna also works real good indoors (I use mine indoors, it is stuck on top of my computer tower). Naturally, if you want, you can mount it on top of your car and use it mobile. This item really helps boost your signal all the way around. Regards, John

The antenna and Wilson booster is compatible with all cell phone (I have a Verizon phone) as they operate on the same frequency; you can contact Wilson via email (see website) or phone. They are a great help.

No - this one is the bare bones of the bunch. There is another Wilson on the market (Amazon) that, if I am not mistaken, is for the iphone 3G and 4G networks.You may need to go with an actual booster kit. cost more but if you need the signal power, it may be the way to go. Watch the "fine print" it will state which carriers they do not do well on.

As others have said the Sine Wave power is WELL worth it for the life of all of your equipment. Most newer, higher end, devices have active power supplies these days. Do you need it, no not really, but why take the chance when you buying something like this to protect equipment that you've spent a bunch of money on?

Edwards answer is correct. You should have gotten the transformer with it, if not you might check the site as when I bought mine some did not say transformer included. I made sure I bought from one that did include it. I bought 2 of these units & love them!!

This is NOT intended to be connected to to a cell device. Wilson makes or made inline units that are made to be directly connected to cell devices. Sorry I don't have any part numbers but search for inline booster and you should find what you need.

no, its for 110v so you need a transformer from 220v to 110v, and then you need a cable between the transformator and the booster.

Yes u will hook it up to the signal booster. Wilson makes several different types. The one the antenna hooks to is the cradle type. I love the boosters and they work well. I have used them in my home for 3 yrs. I also use them in my truck when I travel. They are great.

No. Transformer needs to be purchased separately and installed outside of the chime case

My understanding is that the Ford Sync interfaces with your choice of cell phones. If you purchase the correct version of the Wilson Signal Booster for your particular cell phone provider it should work great and provide much better phone and internet signal strength while traveling in marginal cell coverage areas. I regularly see 1 bar go to 5 bars after plugging the amp in and placing my Samsung 4 on ATT into the cradle.

Yes, the Wilson Electronics Mobile 4G™cell phone signal booster improves coverage - including 4G, 3G, and 2G data downloads - for subscribers of all U.S. cellular networks (except Clearwire).
