If you live, work or travel in country areas of Australia then you know that mobile phone coverage can be patchy at best. The CEL-FI Roam R41 kits improve your connectivity and give you the ability to use your mobile on country roads or even at sea. The new Cel-Fi Roam R41 offers enterprise-grade performance, is easy to install, and allows you to change the carrier without changing the hardware – an amazing feature for those who like to do the big lap around Australia.
Ideal for boosting mobile signal in a car, van, 4WD, truck, motorhome or caravan, the Roam R41 kit is an excellent replacement for GO G31 and G32 systems. The Roam R41 is equipped with the cutting-edge 4th generation Nextivity proprietary IntelliBoost chip, which uses technology derived from enterprise cellular coverage solutions to deliver industry-leading signal gain. This ensures you can make calls, text, enjoy your favourite music, and stay on the right route while on the road.
The Roam R41 kit consists of the Cel-Fi device and choice of antenna. The device runs off a 12-volt cigarette lighter power lead and measures 17 x 8 x 4.5 cm. It mounts to a vertical surface such as the roof of your vehicle or in a dash pod or cargo area. The antenna is attached to the device via a supplied 3m white 9006 (RG58) cable with an FME male connector. The included marine ratchet rail mount is suitable for marine and automotive applications.
This kit comes with the RFI CDQ8197-W series 8.5dBi whip antenna, which has broad frequency support and is well suited to Australian conditions. It covers the entire spectrum of frequencies that are used in Australian cellular networks. It also supports the new 5G NR Low Band and 4G technologies and has a high-gain design to provide optimum performance at low frequencies where the most improvement is needed.
It can be configured to operate with any of the cellular providers in Australia, including Telstra, Optus and Vodafone. This means you can switch carriers as you choose to optimize your mobile phone experience or to accommodate other users of the same device.
Once you’ve installed the unit, you can connect it to your smartphone or tablet using the WAVE app. The app is free and available for iOS and Android devices. The WAVE app is a user-friendly solution to configure the cel-fi device for your specific needs, adjust settings and track device status. The app also displays your device’s current latitude and longitude.
The Roam R41 can boost the mobile signal on both 3G and 4G networks in vehicles, boats and yachts. It can also be used on land in remote areas such as farms, ranches and mine sites. The device can be paired with an external antenna to extend the coverage range and provide improved indoor coverage. The Roam R41 is also available in a stationary version for homes and businesses, as well as for caravans, campers and boats.
