MiniRepeaters
Andrew's MiniRepeaters are RF-fed standalone systems for sub-pico and pico coverage areas. MiniRepeaters provides strong, uniform coverage in small indoor locations and reduce public exposure to radiation.
MiniRepeater RF Enhancers can be combined with MiniSplitters and MiniBoosters for a small cable-based coverage solution. Optional remote monitoring with SMS alarming allows a status SMS to be sent to a technician's mobile or full integration into a larger operation and management network, such as A.I.M.O.S., Andrew's Integrated Network Operating System (OMC).
MiniRepeaters are used for single and multiband indoor coverage and satisfy the need in pico and sub-pico coverage areas such as shops and medium-sized rooms below 10,000 sq m for adequate field strengths.
