4G/5G Antenna installation

Our client in Rivervale runs a medical practice and was unable to get adequate mobile reception as well as 4G or 5G coverage inside their building.  NBN were taking too long to roll out fiber optic cabling to the premises and a solution was required to improve the speed of their 4G and 5G internet service.

The original setup had the router located inside a rack below a tin roof where speeds were no faster than 7 megabits during off peak periods.  We installed twin MIMO Yagi antennas tuned to the highest sensitivity on the band that was used at the nearest 4G tower.  Quite a lot of time was spent doing a site survey on the roof to first find the best spot but also the optimum height for the antennas.  Further fine tuning and speed testing was done until the best signal strength and quality were achieved.

The end result was our client was able to achieve speeds upwards of 80 megabits, which would serve great for a 4G and 5G fallback solution in Perth if in the case of an NBN outage.
