1. Select a location on an outside wall as high as
possible and at least 20 feet away from where the
amplifi er will be located (see Figure 8).
!
Warning: RF Safety: The cradle antenna, when used
with the included cable, must have a separation distance of
at least 8 inches from all persons. If the cable is shortened,
or if a different type of cable is used, or if a different antenna
is used, consult with Wilson Technical Support to verify that
the planned installation is safe. Call 866-294-1660 or 435-
673-5021, or email tech@wilsonelectronics.com.
2. Using the cradle as a template, position it on the
wall in the desired location and mark the screw
holes with a pencil.
3. Drill two holes where marked, using a 3/16-inch
bit and insert the screw anchors.
4. Line up the holes in the cradle with the screw
anchors and mount the cradle to the wall using
two screws and two washers (see Figure
9). Tighten the screws with a Phillips-head
screwdriver.
5. Insert the antenna into the cradle with the
Wilson insignia facing in the direction of
the cell tower. The cable connection should
protrude through the bottom of the cradle.
6. Connect the supplied coax cable to the antenna.
Route the cable as desired to where the amplifi er
will be located. Depending on the distance
between the amplifi er and antenna, you may
need one or both lengths of the supplied cable.
If you use both, connect them together with the
supplied cable connector.
For Technical Support, call 866-294-1660 or 435-673-5021.
NOTE: If you are planning on using the vertical
separation mounting options the desktop
antenna must be located at least 15 vertical
feet below the cradle antenna and within 5
horizontal feet of the cradle antenna. This
space is referred to as the Null Zone.

Vertical Separation Installation

(Pole Mount or Rafter Mount)
Select a location on the roof where the cradle
antenna can be mounted on a pole directly above
the desktop antenna with at least 15 feet vertical
separation (see Figure 8-1).
The cradle antenna may also be mounted in
the buildings rafters, if the 15 feet of vertical
separartion between the cradle antenna and the
desktop can be achieved (see Figure 8-2).
Pole Mounting Option
2. Insert the supplied U-bolt through the holes in the
cradle and slide one half of the bracket assembly
onto the U-bolt (see Figure 7).
3. Fitting the assembly onto the pole, slide the
second half of the bracket onto the U-bolt and
secure it with lock washers and nuts. Be sure
the cradle is at the desired height on the pole and
is rotated toward the nearest cell tower before
tightening the nuts. (Do not over-tighten the nuts.)
4. Insert the antenna into the cradle with the
Wilson insignia facing in the direction of
the cell tower. The cable connection should
protrude through the bottom of the cradle.
5. Connect the supplied coax cable to the antenna.
Route the cable as desired to where the amplifi er
will be located. Depending on the distance
between the amplifi er and antenna, you may
need one or both lengths of the supplied cable.
If you use both, connect them together with the
supplied cable connector.
