weBoost launches cell signal booster for truckers

Aug 26, 2016

Wilson Electronics, now branded as weBoost, has introduced its new cell signal booster designed specifically for truck drivers at the Great American Trucking Show in Dallas.

The weBoost Drive 4G-X OTR was officially released in June, but GATS is serving as the unofficial launch, according to weBoost’s Taylor White. The signal booster can improve a cell signal by as much as 32 times, the company says, depending on the environment.

While the booster can work off of all North American cell carriers, it does require a signal to be able to boost, so it won’t work in complete dead zones.

The booster, which comes packaged with all necessary antennas for installation, is available at GATS for $450. It sells online here at its normal $500 price point. It comes with a two-year warranty and a 30-day money back guarantee.
