PREFACE This user’s manual describes the installation and maintenance of wide band consumer boosters. Please do read user manual carefully before installing and maintaining repeaters. The information in this manual is subject to change without prior notice. 1. SAFETY WARNINGS Users must follow the principles below⯑...
2. INTRODUCTION AND REASONS FOR WEAK CELLULAR SIGNALS Cell Phone Signal Booster is a perfect solution for providing improvement of cellular signal reception inside a house, office, restaurant, VIP Room, apartment, building or shopping mall. Generally cell phones cannot pick up or maintain a strong cellular signal due to one of the two following reasons: 1.
5. REPEATER SYSTEM OVERVIEW The picture below shows how simple and fast booster installation is and how effectively it works. A Yaggi or panel antenna (it depends on the booster model and its power), as donor/outdoor antenna, is installed at the top of the roof to pick up good mobile signals from the base station, and sends them through the cable to the booster where the signals get amplified significantly;...
6. ANTENNAS AND CABLES SETTING UP 6.1. Outdoor antenna installation The repeater’s main function is to improve weak RF signals in an area. The formula is: Input power + Gain= Output power. The signal strength from an outdoor antenna directly affects the efficiency of the indoor coverage.
Installation of a panel antenna as an outdoor antenna Installation of Yagi wide band antenna as an outdoor antenna Installation of a Yaggi antenna as an outdoor antenna Cable layout and connector assembly 1. Keep the type, specifications, routing direction, location and curvature radius of cables in compliance with the model requirements.

1. Omni antenna (ceiling Omni or whip antenna) shall be installed in the center and radiate all directions. 2. It is better to use a directional panel antenna or Yaggi antenna when the area shape is long and narrow (corridors, long row of houses in two sides, tunnels or elevators or rural open space). Requirements to indoor antenna installation: •...
7. REPEATER INSTALLATION 7.1 Installation requirements 7.1.1 Installation Location Requirements 1. The repeater shall be installed indoor in a cool, dry and ventilated room without erosive gas or smoke, or on a cool and ventilated wall to ensure excellent heat dissipation. 2.

INSTALLATION STEPS 1. Find an appropriate position for an outdoor antenna. ( see the r equirements in 6.1. sect. ) 2. Plug in the outdoor antenna to the mobile booster from BS side and fasten tightly. 3. Plug in the indoor antenna to the mobile booster from MS side and fasten tightly. 4.
7.2.2 Repeater’s ports description 1. Outdoor port: connected with the outdoor antenna by cable 2. Indoor port: connected with indoor antenna directly or by cable 3. DC IN: connected with power supply. 7.2.3 Accessories selection Choosing accessories pay attention to the two characteristics – frequency and impedance. All accessories shall support the repeater’s frequencies.

1. Shows the UL&DL average frequency. 2. Shows the UL&DL maximum gain. 3. Smart function. The repeater could set the gain automatically to prevent the Alarm. 4. Antenna Isolation Detection. At first power on the repeater, it will detect the oscillation automatically between the outdoor and indoor antennas.
working band or the input signal is beyond a safe limit. The repeater also features a Network Safe / MUTE feature that automatically shuts off the repeater to protect the cellular network. Users shall make sure the LED remains green at all times for optimum system performance.
For maximum precision in signal level testing, switch your cell phone into Field Test Mode and see dB parameter. The closer dB signal level to 0, the better cell phone reception you’ll get. • -105 to -100 = Bad/drop call •...

- Use some obstacles (Such as walls). 2. The repeater’s power is on but the phone cannot get connected to the network and still can not communicate. Reason 1: There are loose or wrong connections in the repeater system. Solution: Please try to fasten the connections between different parts of the system. Reason 2: The signals received by outdoor antenna of other operators nearby are too strong.
8. FAQ 1. Will booster increase the RF radiation? No, it will decrease instead. Every cell phone irradiates heavily being in zones with poor mobile signal as a cell phone is constantly in searching mode. The danger is your cell phone is about 2cm to your body, which makes its usage rather harmful.
