    Preface This user manual describes design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of Hiboost wide band consumer single and dual band boosters. Please, read user manual carefully before installing and maintaining the boosters. The information in this manual is subject to change without prior notice. Opinions are welcomed about the manual improvement.
  • Page 4: Overview

    Overview Hiboost single and dual band consumer boosters are designed to help mobile users to amplify weak cell phone signal. The devices are bi-directional. The outdoor antenna receives the signal from the cell tower and transmits it to the signal booster, the booster amplifies the signal and the indoor antenna sends it to your mobile device.

  • Page 14: Step 1. Install Outdoor Antenna

    Step 1. Install Outdoor Antenna 1.1 How to find the place with the strongest receiving signal The booster’s main function is to improve weak RF signal inside a house, office or any other indoor area. The receiving strength of the outdoor antenna and the strength of the signal reception outdoors directly affect the efficiency of indoor coverage.
  • Page 15 After 3s After 3s You can always press "LCD key" so that the LCD will stay in the output power mode, and in case it is dual band, you can press "LCD Key" to switch to another band's output power display. Remark: when Alc shows up flashing, it means the receiving signal power is stronger than the system needs it.
  • Page 16 More tips: Please try to pick up signal from cell towers that are not so busy, which can be estimated by the population density in the area served by this tower. It’s also recommended to avoid a cell tower near a supermarket, shopping mall, stadium and any other public place visited by many people regularly.
  • Page 17: Step 2.Install Indoor Antenna

    Note: Wrap waterproof tape around the connectors between outdoor antenna and feeder line to avoid water or other kind of damage. Step 2.Install Indoor Antenna Select indoor panel antenna or omni-ceiling antenna as an indoor antenna according to your needs to provide indoor coverage. Install the indoor panel antenna as shown on the graph below.
  • Page 18 If you have an indoor omni ceiling antenna or whip antenna, the best place to install it is the center of your house. Fix the whip antenna as shown on the graph below. Install omni ceiling antenna as shown on the graph below. Step 1: Drill a hole in the ceiling.

    Step 3.Install Signal Booster 1. Select the location near a power supply on a wall. 2. Mount the booster with the screws included into the kit as shown on the graph below. 3. Connect the outdoor antenna cable to booster connector marked as “outdoor”.
  • Page 20: Step 4.Booster Commissioning

    Step 4.Booster Commissioning Overview: The booster has an intelligent startup system, booster commissioning is an automatic process able to guarantee system optimal performance. As soon as you finish booster system installation, plug it in a power supply to power on the booster. It will start working and checking the receiving signal and the isolation to ensure best system performance.
  • Page 21 You can check the output power displayed on LCD. It may range within 1-3dBdifference which is normal due to outdoor signal conditions. It’s perfect if the Output power reaches it’s maximum rated value for largest coverage; but you always leave it as it is if the coverage is good enough for you. In case the coverage is not enough, please take measures stated below on the following conditions.
  • Page 22 ISO status indicates if the booster has enough isolation between outdoor and indoor antennas in order to avoid loop back or so-called self-oscillation. Thanks to intelligent software, HiBoost is fully protected from interference with operator mobile networks. "ISO" flashing on LCD display means that ISO function is working great and self-oscillation has been eliminated.
