Indoor Antennas: Separation
Antenna separation is critical to installing your indoor antennas.
If you don't have enough separation, the Cel-Fi GO X will throttle its gain (amplification) to
avoid "oscillation." Oscillation is a type of feedback that occurs if the gain of the system is
higher than the "RF separation" between the indoor and outdoor antennas.
You can improve your separation by moving your indoor antennas. Keep your outdoor
antenna in the location with the best signal. If you have more than one indoor antenna, the
total separation is determined by whichever antenna is closest the outdoor antenna.
How to Tell If You Have Enough Separation
The Wave app shows a percentage score for separation on
both the Dashboard and Advanced tabs.
Ideally, we want a score of 80% or higher for each "boosting"
band, but in small buildings that might not be possible - just
do the best you can.
Example of Poor Separation
Not enough vertical and/or horizontal
separation between outdoor and
indoor antenna.
Not enough building materials
between indoor and outdoor antenna.
Example of Good Separation
Plenty of vertical and/or horizontal
separation.
Outdoor antenna pointing away from
indoor antenna.
Multiple layers of building materials
between antennas.
