Well, not sure about the semantics, but when he said “booster” I was picturing 
an amp rather than a repeater.

Antenna <-> Bidirectional amp <-> Cradlepoint

I haven’t done it, but If that’s the setup that doesn’t sound crazy.

I worked with the cradlepoint engineers. We had a hard time finding any 
scenario where a repeater would not cause more harm than good. Ended with a 700 
dollar antenna recomended so price wasnt even all that much more than a quality 
repeater.

The biggest concern was the unavoidable feedback loop that would occur

Just went through this with a customer. Dont do it. Get a sim router with 
external connector and go to an external antenna

I have an upcoming project to install a cellular router in a canyon site with 
spotty service..(-127, -138dBm)...

I was wondering if anyone has used the output port of booster with cable to 
input port of cellular router?
