4G vs 5G Signal Booster

Understand the difference between 4G and 5G booster kits before you buy.

Short answer

4G and 5G boosters support different network bands and use cases, so the best choice is determined by the signal available outside and the frequencies your network uses. A 5G kit is not automatically better if the needed 5G band is not available at your location.

What to take from this

Coverage is specific to a building, a network, and the signal available around it. Use the facts below as a useful starting point, then contact us if your setup has a constraint that is hard to describe.

Before you order

Check the bands supported by your network, measure the indoor area you want to cover, and identify where an outdoor antenna could receive the cleanest signal.
