   The microcells that I am aware of require an internet connection as   
   their backhaul.  They're not "repeaters" that listen for / re-transmit   
   LTE signals.  Offhand, I'm not actually aware of any "cellular   
   repeaters" in general.   
      
   Not 100% sure what their internals do, but most likely is they utilize a   
   VPN or otherwise link back to the cellCo's internal VoIP routing   
   network.
