The Cel-Fi GO G51 5G NR 3500MHz mobile phone repeater from Nextivity is fully approved by Telstra and Optus to use in Australia.
This powerful 5G cellular repeater, which some may call a 5G mobile phone booster is the ONLY approved 5G cellular repeater in Australia* for small to medium consumer/private spaces without requiring cellular carrier authorisation and planning.
With a massive 27dBm 5G output, 100dB signal gain and a whopping download speed throughput of up to 570Mbps**, this repeater stands tall above it's predecessors and is a cost affordable solution for small to medium business requiring reliable cellular connectivity.
The CelFi G51 will ultimately perform best when installed by certified professional installers. Tin Can Solutions are Cel-Fi Certified Enterprise Installers and can either set you up with the correct gear for a professional and well calculated installation, or we can provide installation services throughout QLD Australia.
The Australian model of the G51-LE is compatible with Telstra and Optus. Vodafone is not approved on the G51 at the time of writing this.
Only 1 provider can be used at any one time which is easily selectable from within the Nextivity Wave app under Settings > Operator. This means that if you ever need to switch phone providers, it is an easy swap of carriers which only takes a couple of minutes.
This option does take a few minutes as it needs to download the new software update from Nextivity servers which requires cellular coverage, or a connection to the Wave portal via ethernet cabling connected to a internet connected switch and a Nextivity Cel-Fi approved installer to connect and initiate the update.
The above image depicts the G51 at a window using a paddle or omni-directional antenna communicating with the cellular tower. While this is achievable, the signal quality is rarely good enough to obtain desired results without an external antenna, plus separation between the 2 antennas is required which becomes very hard to achieve in this scenario. But it does show you what is possible if cabling access is limited.

Bringing the power of the macro 5G network indoors, CEL-FI GO G51 solves coverage challenges for the shorter range of mid-band 5G NR.
The system delivers industry-leading signal gain up to 100 dB to overcome mid-band 5G NR coverage challenges that no other solution can.
In addition to unmatched performance, GO G51 is compact, easy-to-use, and does not require manual configuration, making it easier than ever before for building owners to equip their buildings with 5G connectivity and ensure better voice quality, 5G data speeds, and fewer dropped calls.
GO G51 is perfect for small- to medium-sized buildings, operator approved, unconditionally network safe, and offers the flexibility to support various 2G/3G/4G and 5G cellular networks.

** Theoretical calculated speeds based on hardware performance. These figures may vary dependent on environmental factors such as the received signal strength and quality, Signal to Noise ratio (SiNR), system installation/setup, and ultimately the cellular towers output at any given time.
Note: 5G low bands are not covered by the G51 as it is designed for suburban areas where Band 78 5G NR 3500MHz is available. The Cel-Fi G41 is a lower cost alternative if band 78 5G NR is not available in the area.
