Working Diagram (How It Works) The outdoor antenna catches the signal from the tower. Sends outside signal to the booster through a coax cable. The booster amplifies the signal then rebroadcasts the signal indoors to all mobile devices within range. The system also works in reverse;...

Signal transmission loss and power level Coverage area ability Note: FCC regulations limit the amplification of all cell phone boosters in order to prevent damage to the telecommunications infrastructure. Therefore, the maximum coverage area of a booster depends on the original power level of the signal captured by the outdoor unit.

Preparation Find a cell tower nearby! There are a variety of resources available online, here are some third party websites and app recommended. Use these to locate your nearest cell tower, either by street address of GPS coordinates. For U.S. websites: www.antennasearch.com/ www.cellmapper.net/ www.cellreception.com/towers...

Test Installation We STRONGLY recommend doing a test installation before finalizing the installation. Doing a test installation of your cell phone booster ensures that you will get the optimal performance from your system. Step1: Measure the Signal Strength Inside your Home •...

Step3: Select the Location for the Outside Unit This is the most critical step and will determine the overall performance of the booster system. Using the same method described in Step 1, walk around the outside of your home and test the signal strength. Determine where you have the strongest signal (the dBm reading is closest to zero).

Step 4: Temporarily Mount the Outside Antenna Use one of the three options to mount the outside antenna on your roof on the side of the house with the strongest signal In order to achieve the best signal coverage effect, there is a certain distance requirement between the indoor and outdoor units.

Step5: Introduce (Route) Cables Into Room Through Window Attention: Don’t kink the cable! Avoid excessive and extreme bending of the cable in order to prevent damage and loss of function. Step6: Connect the System Connect the outside antenna to Connect the outside antenna to the the RG6 cable.

Step7: Evaluate the Effects • Now that the booster is up-and-running, re-test the signal strength inside your home at the same locations from Step 1. If the number is higher (dBm reading is closer to zero) than the original reading, your booster is working. •...

Step8: Finalizing Outdoor Antenna Installation Once you have tested the performance of the signal booster and made all necessary adjustments, it’s time to finalize the installation. Outdoor Unit Installation Make sure that the outside unit is mounted at least 3 feet away from any other metallic objects or windows.

Option B : Mounting on Side of Wall (Second Choice) Step9: Finalizing Indoor Installation a. Choose right position for the indoor antenna • 20 cm away from any other metallic objects • 50 cm away from any windows • The inside antenna should be facing the location of the signal dead zone/weak signal area inside the building...

Trouble Shooting: No Signal Improvement Step 2. Check cable connections. Ensure the indoor and outdoor units are securely connected to the coax cable. Step 3. If any of the lights on the front panel are flashing in green then off/continue flashing/solid green, it means that self oscillation is occurring.
