About Us

Better communications for every workplace

Unlocking the full capabilities of mobile network technology for everyone and every industry.

OUR STORY

UCtel dates back to 2011. As can be guessed from the name, at the time, our focus was on providing unified communication and Cisco telephony for big enterprises. Yet it all changed in 2019 when the UK regulator, Ofcom, approved the use of mobile signal repeaters, and we decided to use them as the "door" to unified communications.

To our surprise, many companies suffered from dropped calls, interrupted video streaming, and overall bad signal quality for years and were just waiting for a cost-effective and reliable solution to fix this problem. So, instead of being a simple add-on and extra service, installing mobile signal boosters in the UK became the main focus of our company. In the years since, UCtel has worked on a wide array of projects with some of the best businesses, enterprises, and buildings in the UK.

Besides, the move to mobile signal solutions also opened the door to Private Mobile Networks, namely building your own private data network using mobile technology. This exciting technology enables a whole new world of use cases and connectivity options to transform the way businesses operate.

OUR MISSION

Mobile network technology enables people and things to stay connected at all times, but when this doesn’t work or is unreliable, it impacts business productivity, client or employee satisfaction, and even health and safety. We believe stable mobile connection is essential in the modern world and that nobody should suffer from poor coverage in buildings. That’s why we provide mobile signal booster installation in the UK to eliminate poor mobile signals, dead zones, and bad call experiences from buildings where either the location or building materials mean that getting an acceptable level of signal inside is just not possible.

At UCtel, we deploy industry-leading, Ofcom compliant, mobile signal-boosting solutions that allow us to transform the way buildings and businesses of all sizes connect and work. With us, it’s possible to deploy a 5G mobile signal booster or a private 5G network, depending on your needs and business specifics.

UCtel is guided by four principles: a passion for innovation, customer-oriented focus, long-term thinking, and operational excellence.

Our Work

Central Middlesex Hospital needed a mobile signal booster vendor for their emergency care and diagnostic centre building. Before UCtel’s intervention, the hospital struggled with weak signals on all four major UK networks — EE, O2, Three, and Vodafone. With the near-zero disruption of usual hospital activities, we installed a 4G signal booster solution, which significantly improved the hospital’s mobile coverage.

Sunderland-based global automotive manufacturer, Unipres, has a factory covering approximately 47,000 sqm which had several dead zones and areas of weak signals. These areas were affecting the productivity of their nearly 1,300 staff members, and they decided to bring our mobile signal booster company on board. We solved this problem by deploying the CEL-FI QUATRA 4000e DAS solution.
