Installation
The
antenna
should
be
mounted
as
shown
in
the
illustration
below.
The
included
mounting
bracket
is
adjustable
and
will
accommodate
pipe
diameters
from
1.25
inches
to
2
inches
(pipe

Mount
the
antenna
so
that
there
is
at
least
3
feet
of
clearance
in
front
and
sides.
Position
the
antenna
so
that
it
has
the
most
unobstructed
line
of
sight
to
the
cellular
service
provider's
strongest
signal.
If
you
are
using
a
wireless
Signal
Booster,
make
sure
the
antenna
is
not
pointing
across
your
own
roof.
Refer
to
Signal
Booster
instructions
for
separation
requirements.

Take
extreme
care
to
ensure

Signal
readings
usually
appear
as
a
negative
number
(for
example,
-86).
The
larger
the
number,
the
more
powerful
the
signal
(-75
is
stronger
than
-84).
See
graph
above.
Once
you
have
obtained
the
strongest
signal,
fully
tighten
the
mounting
hardware.
After
the
Signal
Booster
and
the
rest
of
the
system
is
installed
and
performing
correctly,
weatherproof
all
connections.
Important:
If
you
are
using
a
Wireless
Signal
Booster,
be
sure
the
antenna
is
not
pointing
across
the
building
in
which
you
are
trying
to
get
coverage.
The
antenna
should
point
away
from
the
building
to
help
prevent
oscillation
(feedback).
Ultra
low
loss
cable
is
recommended
for
lengths
20
feet
or
greater
to
prevent
significant
signal
loss.
