BEFORE INSTALLATION
Prior to securing the location of any booster parts, a “soft install” is recommended as adjustments may be needed to optimize
performance.
Ensure adequate separation between the planned locations of the inside and outside antenna – at least 25 ft (see diagram
”Antenna Separation” on page 7).
For kits that use directional antennas (outside or inside), the directional antenna(s) should be oriented in a way that they do
not “face” the other antenna (see “Aiming Directional Antennas” Diagram).
Ensure sufcient cable length between the outside antenna location and booster location. The length of the provided cable is
50 ft.
Installation Overview
Step 1. Find the outside area with the strongest signal.
Step 2. Install the outside antenna and outside amp in the location identied in step 1.
Step 3. Install the Inside antenna and inside in where signal is needed.
Step 4. Connect power source and turn on.
Step 5. Congure gain settings if needed.
INSTALLATION
Step 1. Find the Area With the Strongest Signal
Using your phone, identify the outside location with the strongest signal for placement of your outside antenna. Generally, this
is found above the rooine on the side facing your nearest cell tower and as high as possible – where the antenna can ‘see’
your cell tower. To nd the location of your carrier’s closest cell tower, go to www.antennasearch.com.
The coverage area that the booster provides is directly related to the strength of incoming signal received by the outdoor
antenna. Mounting the outside antenna where the signal is the strongest will provide the best results.
Please note, if signal is extremely weak where the outside antenna is installed, indoor coverage will be limited. Bars are not
always a reliable measure of signal. The best way to conrm signal coverage is the ability to place and hold a call.
More detailed measurements can be taken by reading your phone’s signal in decibels(dB). Decibels are measured in the
