Autobacs BOOST-M1000 5dBi 1000mm Mobile Network Antenna Cel-Fi
The BOOST-M1000 is a 1000mm mobile network antenna with 5dBi gain, optimised for N5, N8, and N28 frequency bands and calibrated specifically for use with Cel-Fi signal boosters. Featuring a detachable fibreglass collinear whip, stainless steel spring, and 4.5m LMR240 coax cable with SMA male connector, it is designed to deliver strong signal performance in regional areas where mobile connectivity is weak.
Product overview
The Autobacs BOOST-M1000 is a purpose-tuned external vehicle antenna developed for use in conjunction with Cel-Fi signal boosters, particularly the Cel-Fi ROAM R41. Rather than attempting to cover the full GSM frequency range at which performance is difficult to maintain consistently, the BOOST-M1000 is optimised for N5, N8, and N28 frequency bands, which are the most relevant for regional Australian mobile coverage. At 1000mm with a 5dBi gain rating, it provides greater signal capture than the shorter BOOST-M600 variant, making it better suited to locations with particularly weak signal.
The detachable fibreglass collinear whip at 23mm diameter sits on a stainless steel spring at 45mm diameter, providing a durable and flexible mounting solution for vehicle installations. The 4.5m LMR240 coaxial cable terminates in an SMA male connector for direct connection to compatible Cel-Fi repeater units.
Features and benefits
Calibrated for Cel-Fi signal boosters: The BOOST-M1000 is specifically tuned to work in conjunction with Cel-Fi signal boosters including the ROAM R41, focusing on the N5, N8, and N28 frequency bands most critical for regional Australian mobile coverage.
5dBi gain at 1000mm: Delivers 5dBi of antenna gain in a 1000mm profile, providing greater signal capture than the shorter BOOST-M600 variant and better suited to locations with particularly weak mobile signal.
Optimised for N5, N8, and N28 bands: Focused on the frequency bands most commonly used for regional Australian mobile coverage on Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone networks, where signal boosting provides the greatest benefit to voice and data connectivity.
Detachable fibreglass collinear whip: The 23mm diameter fibreglass whip is detachable for transport or storage, mounted on a 45mm diameter stainless steel spring for flexible, durable vehicle installation.
4.5m LMR240 coax cable with SMA male connector: The 4.5m LMR240 coaxial cable provides sufficient length for routing from an external vehicle mounting point to the repeater unit inside the cabin, terminating in an SMA male connector for direct connection to compatible Cel-Fi repeaters.
Omni-directional coverage: Omni-directional horizontal beamwidth ensures consistent signal capture regardless of vehicle orientation relative to the nearest mobile tower.
Vertical polarisation: Vertical polarisation matches the polarisation of mobile network base station antennas, maximising signal transfer efficiency between the antenna and the network.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the BOOST-M1000 and the BOOST-M600?
The BOOST-M1000 is a 1000mm antenna with 5dBi gain, while the BOOST-M600 is a 600mm antenna with 4.1dBi gain. The longer BOOST-M1000 provides greater signal capture and is better suited to locations with particularly weak mobile signal. Both are calibrated for use with the Cel-Fi ROAM R41.
Is the BOOST-M1000 compatible with all Cel-Fi repeaters?
The BOOST-M1000 is specifically tuned for use with the Cel-Fi ROAM R41. Compatibility with other Cel-Fi repeater models has not been confirmed in the available source data. Contact us to confirm compatibility with your specific Cel-Fi repeater before purchasing.
What frequency bands does the BOOST-M1000 support?
The BOOST-M1000 is optimised for N5, N8, and N28 frequency bands, which are the primary bands used for regional Australian mobile coverage on Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone networks.
Is the whip detachable for transport or storage?
Yes. The BOOST-M1000 features a detachable collinear fibreglass whip, allowing it to be removed for transport or when passing through low-clearance areas.
Is the BOOST-M1000 sold as a standalone antenna or as part of a kit?
The BOOST-M1000 is available as a standalone antenna. It is also included in the ROAM41+M1000 complete kit alongside the Cel-Fi ROAM R41 repeater. Contact us if you require the complete kit or the standalone antenna for your application.
