Outside Antennas
The right outside antenna comes down to three things: how strong your signal is outside the building, the terrain around you, and which direction your cell towers are in. The stronger the antenna, the more signal your amplifier has to work with, and the more coverage you get inside.
- Omni Antenna: Receives signal from every direction with 4 dB of gain, and there's nothing to aim. Choose it when your outside signal is strong enough that you don't need extra gain, or when you're in a valley or hilly area where the signal bounces around a lot. Its wider, lower-gain pattern handles bouncing signal better than any other option here.
- High Gain Omni Antenna: Receives from every direction like the standard Omni, with up to 9 dB of gain instead of 4. This is the right choice for most buildings. You get close to the Yagi's power without having to aim anything, and it works when your carriers' towers sit in different directions.
- Yagi Antenna: A directional antenna with 10 dB of gain. Choose it when your signal is weak and comes mostly from one direction. You aim it at the tower, and its 75 degree view of the horizon means the aim doesn't have to be perfect.
- High Gain LPDA Antenna: The strongest of the four at 11 to 13 dB. Choose it when your outside signal is very weak. It needs a clear line of sight to the tower and careful aiming, so it takes the most work to set up, and it delivers the most coverage once it's aimed correctly.
Inside Antennas
The right inside antennas depend on your space. A typical floor with standard-height or drop ceilings usually calls for a dome antenna. Higher ceilings, multiple floors, or a spot you want to aim signal at call for a panel.
- Ultra-Thin Dome Antenna: This is what we usually recommend. It mounts to the ceiling and broadcasts in a circle around it, delivers more gain than the standard Dome at 4 to 6 dBi, and sits nearly flush so it blends into the ceiling.
- Dome Antenna: The standard version of the ceiling dome at 2 to 5 dBi. It costs a little less than the Ultra-Thin, covers a little less, and sticks out from the ceiling more.
- Panel Antenna: The most versatile of the three at 7 to 10 dBi. It's directional, so it sends signal where you point it instead of in a circle. Choose it for high ceilings, for covering two floors at once in a home (it broadcasts through the floor when aimed that way), for long narrow spaces like hallways, or when you're targeting one area and don't want signal going the other direction.
How Many Inside Antennas Do You Need?
Start with the square footage you need covered. In spaces with walls, one inside antenna covers 750 to 1,500 square feet. In open layouts, one covers 1,500 to 2,500. Divide your space by those numbers and you have your antenna count. Most offices end up needing more than one antenna per floor, and that's normal.

Product Overview
Product Overview
The weBoost 475021 Drive X Mobile Signal Booster Kit has the most powerful downlink allowed by the FCC and a strong uplink back to the nearby cell towers, so you get a usable cell phone reception in locations where other mobile boosters have stopped working. The Drive X is a great and affordable alternative to the weBoost Drive Reach 470154.
The Drive X boosts the 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and 5G networks from the major carriers in the United States and Canada, for fewer dropped calls, less delayed text messages and the fastest download speeds possible. The Drive X broadcasts boosted signal to your phone wirelessly and does not require your phone to sit in a cradle, so it can support multiple phones and data devices simultaneously.
The weBoost 475021 Drive X's inside coverage area will depend on your existing outside signal strength. In areas where you have a moderate existing outside signal, the Drive X will fill a normal vehicle with boosted coverage. As the outside signal gets weaker, the inside coverage area will shrink, until you may have to keep your phone within about 18 inches from the inside antenna in order to take advantage of the boosted signal.
Supported Carriers
The weBoost 475021 Drive X Kit supports the voice, 3G, 4G LTE and 5G networks from all major carriers in the United States and Canada. For other locations, please consult the frequencies listed below to see if this product will work for you.
Here is a more detailed breakdown of the carriers, networks and frequencies boosted by this kit:
- AT&T 2G, 3G, 4G HSPA+, 4G LTE & 5G
- Verizon 2G, 3G, 4G LTE & 5G
- Sprint 2G, 3G & 4G LTE
- T-Mobile 2G, 3G, 4G HSPA+ & 4G LTE
- US Cellular 2G, 3G & 4G LTE
- All other carriers using 700 MHz, 800 MHz, 1900 MHz, and AWS 1700/2100 MHz frequencies
Please Note: This signal booster kit will not work in most European, Asian, and African countries because the frequencies used there are different than those boosted by this equipment.

Installation Overview
Installing the weBoost 475021 Drive X kit is very easy and can usually be done in just a few minutes. Because nothing is permanent, the kit can be transferred to another vehicle as needed.
- To start, mount the mini-mag antenna on the roof of the vehicle. The antenna must be stuck to a metal surface. If you have a sunroof, position the antenna well behind the sunroof to increase the separation between the inside and outside antennas.
- Run the cable in through a door opening, under the door weather stripping to protect the cable.
- Connect the cable to the amplifier's Outside Antenna port.
- Connect the inside antenna cable to the amplifier's Inside Antenna port.
- Locate the inside antenna near where you'll typically be using the phone, for example, in the center console or on the side of the driver's seat. Ensure that the cables and amplifier won't be damaged if the front seats are adjusted. Keep inside antenna at least 8 inches for any person and approximately 18 inches from where you typically use your phone.
