Does this antenna work without an amplifier?

No. It is a passive antenna designed to feed a cellular amplifier. Without a booster it will not improve signal on its own.

Will it work with any carrier?

Yes. It is multiband and covers every major US network, so it is not tied to one carrier.

How is it different from a directional antenna?

It picks up signal from all directions, so you do not aim it. A directional antenna can reach higher gain but must be pointed at the tower.

Where should I mount it?

On a flat metal surface such as a vehicle roof, with the cable routed to the amplifier. The magnet holds it in place.

The antenna itself with its attached cable. Check that the connector matches your amplifier before buying.

Is it good for a home setup?

It can be, if mounted on metal outdoors and cabled to an indoor amplifier. For fixed installs a directional antenna often performs better.

Our take on the Wilson Electronics 311125 Magnet-mount Antenna

The Wilson Electronics 311125 is a multiband omnidirectional cellular antenna with up to 6.1 dB of gain, built to pair with a signal amplifier rather than work on its own. It mounts magnetically, so it sits on a vehicle roof or metal surface and can be moved between vehicles. It covers every major carrier network, which makes it a flexible add-on for an existing booster setup. Compared with directional antennas it trades peak gain for all-around pickup, so it does not need aiming.
