Cell Phone Amplifier for RV’s

Living life on the road and seeing the country from the window of your RV can be exciting, and help you to fulfill a lifelong dream. But while RV owners want to get out and explore the world, they also need to maintain contact with family and friends. Richardson Electronics (NASDAQ: RELL), global provider of engineered solutions for the wireless communications market, today announced the release of Call Capture™, its advanced line of cellular phone signal enhancers. Call Capture™ dramatically improves the signal strength and area coverage of cellular phones, and can help RV owners stay in touch with those that matter most, no matter where their travels may take them.

“The ability to stay in touch with family and friends is of utmost importance to retirees and vacationers who travel long distances in RV’s,” said Greg Peloquin, Richardson Electronics’ Executive Vice President of the company’s RF and Wireless Group. “While cellular networks are far better now then they have been in the past, there are still large areas of the country with spotty cellular coverage, underscoring the need for a solution that allows consumers to use their phones wherever they may go. Call Capture™ is that solution.”

Different Products for Different Needs
Call Capture™ is available in two different models that cater to individual cellular users and their specific needs. Richardson offers the amplifier in a portable, easy-to-install model for consumers who frequently change vehicles or are constantly on the go. The portable kit uses a power adaptor that plugs into a vehicle’s cigarette lighter and uses two small antennae- one internal, one external- to boost the cellular signal inside vehicles. Users may also choose to have the amplifier professionally installed so that all cables and antennae are hidden and the device is powered directly by the vehicle’s electric system, and Richardson Electronics offers an exclusive model for professional and long-distance drivers that includes an exterior mounting bracket that allows drivers to extract the greatest value from their Call Capture™ amplifier.

In addition to providing improvements to signal strength and call clarity, Richardson’s Call Capture™ signal amplifiers allow cellular users to get the most out of their cell phone’s battery. When a cellular phone is operating without the use of a signal amplifier in an area with a poor cellular signal—a frequent occurrence on US highways and rural areas—the phone must operate at full power in order to relay the phone’s signal to the nearest cellular tower. But when using the Call Capture™ amplifier, the phone uses less battery power, and thus can function for a longer period of time, allowing RV drivers to drive without worrying about a dead or dying cell phone.
