Powering up the Amplifier

Carefully insert the power cable.
12 V DC power supply (included)
aC/DC power supply (not included)
notE: The aluminum casing of the SignalBooST™ amplifier will adjust very quickly to
the ambient temperature of its environment. For example, in the summer, when the inside
of a car can reach 140 degrees Fahrenheit, the amplifier temperature may be 150 degrees
or higher. The casing will be hot to the touch, similar to a metal door handle or steering
wheel. Such high temperatures will not damage the amplifier, nor do they pose a fire
risk. As recommended in these instructions, when installing the amplifier in a vehicle,
select a location with adequate ventilation, such as under the seat or dashboard.
Keep the area free of items that could block air flow to the amplifier.
The universal connector must be placed
directly on the cellular data card to work
properly. attach the universal connector to
the cellular data card with the VElCRo
included in the package. iMPoRtant:
The adhesive of the gray Velcro patch
needs time to "cure." For best results,
do not use the Velcro connection for a
minimum of 24 hours after application.
The universal connector and extension
cable included in the package are long
enough to reach the amplifier location. This
allows for ease and convenience of use.
Make sure both the outside antenna
and other cables are connected before
powering up the amplifier.
For vehicle use, connect the power cable
from the DC power supply to the amplifier
input marked "Power" and insert the large
end into DC power socket (the cigarette
lighter outlet).
For home or office use, connect the
cable from the aC/DC power supply (sold
separately) to the amplifier input marked
"Power" and insert the plug end into a
standard wall outlet.
!
Warning: Use only Wilson power
supply units. Use of a non-Wilson
product may damage your equipment.
The amplifier may remain on all the time.
However, leaving the amplifier on in a
vehicle when it is not running can discharge
the battery in a day or two.
A good option is to power the amplifier
through the ignition switch so the amplifier
is turned on and off with the vehicle.
iMPoRTanT: Do not power up the
amplifier unless the antenna and other
cables are attached to the amplifier.
