Before Getting Started This guide will help you properly install Wilson’s In-Building Wireless Smart Technology™ Amplifiers. It is important to read through all of the installation steps for your particular application prior to installing any equipment. Read through the instructions, visualize where all the equipment will need to be installed and do a soft installation before mounting any equipment.
Position the amplifier in a well-ventilated location near a power outlet. Attach the outside and inside antennas to the amplifier using 9913 or equivalent coax cable (available from Wilson Electronics). STEP 4 Power up the Amplifier IMPORTANT! Before connecting the power supply, ensure that both the inside and outside antenna cables are connected.
Installing a Wilson Outside Antenna Select a location on the roof of the building to install the outside antenna, using a cell phone in test mode to find the strongest signal from the cell tower. For test mode help, visit www.wilsonelectronics.com or call Technical Support at 866-294-1660.
Installing a Wilson Inside Antenna Select a suitable location for the inside antenna, preferably in the center of where the signal needs to be amplified. To determine signal strength and coverage distance, refer to page 11 of this installation guide. Follow the specific antenna installation instructions included with the inside antenna.
Connect the outside antenna to the amplifier with 9913 or equivalent coax cable (available from Wilson Electronics). Place the inside antenna in the center of the area needing the amplified signal. It is important to have at least 40 feet of...
Powering up a Wilson Amplifier IMPORTANT! Ensure that all cell phones and cellular data cards within 50 feet of the inside antenna are turned off. 2. To verify proper installation of the amplifier and antennas, make sure that the distance between the inside and outside antennas is a minimum of 40 feet for the 50 dB amplifier, 50 feet of separation distance for the 60 dB PCS amplifier, and 65 feet for the 60 dB cellular amplifier.
Understanding the Amplifier Lights The amplifier is equipped with sensitive electronics designed to detect amplifier oscillation or cell phone overload, both of which can hamper amplifier performance. The amplifier is designed to automatically reduce gain or, if necessary, shut down to prevent or compensate for these conditions.
Troubleshooting If light A is amber, this indicates the amplifier is working, but at reduced performance (gain level). Increase the separation distance between the inside and outside antennas, reset the amplifier by disconnecting and reconnecting the power supply, then check to ensure that light A is green.
Cell Phone Overload Protection If the cell phone is too close to the inside antenna when making a call, it can overload the amplifier. To prevent such overload, the amplifier is equipped with Automatic Gain Control, which reduces gain. (Gain is indicated by green lights in the B, C and D positions.) One or more of these lights may go out, indicating gain cutback.
Warnings and Recommendations Warning: The Yagi antenna must always be located so the back or side points to the inside antenna. Never point the front of the Yagi antenna toward the inside antenna – oscillation will result, causing amber light and gain reduction. Warning: The outside antenna must be installed on an outdoor permanent structure with a separation of at least 20 feet from all persons during...
