Canadian cellular booster manufacturer SolidRF in June 2019 introduced (our news story) a very unique mobile-rated booster designed for use in RVs - the SolidRF RV Pro. They have since renamed this booster to simply SolidRF.
The kit is a substantial departure from SolidRF's previous mobile booster, the MobileForce 4G, which originally came out in 2015.
In fact, the RV Pro is different from any other cell booster on the market.
Most RV and vehicle booster kits are made up of the same core components - an antenna on the roof, an antenna indoors, and a booster tucked away in an indoor cabinet somewhere in between.
The SolidRF puts all the booster electronics outdoors, up on the roof, where the amplifier can be closely coupled to the outdoor antenna with a lot less potential for signal loss over the wires.
And indoors, the SolidRF is the first mobile cellular booster to provide for TWO interior antennas, allowing for two separate boosted areas with improved signal inside the RV.
Product Variations
SolidRF originally just released the RV Pro version, but later came out with a Marine Cell Phone Booster kit which is similar to the RV kit, but with the standard marine external antenna included.
RV
The RV kit is intended for smaller spaces of an RV with an exterior antenna that attaches directly to the external amplifier.
