The F27K-6S-IoT industrial amplifier requires outside and inside antennas connected with appropriate coaxial cables and a splitter network. The F27K-6S-IoT can typically power 8-15 indoor antennas but the exact number of antennas, length of cable or other accessories needed can vary according to the size and construction of materials used in the building, outdoor signal strength and layout of the structure.

on the best signal for installation. • LCD Display Method Connect the outdoor antenna to the booster's outdoor port. Fix the outdoor antenna on the roof of the building and point it to the nearest cell tower. Then have a look at the gain and output power value displayed on the amplifier's LCD.

This can be estimated by the population density in the area served by the tower. For example, it is recommended to avoid cell towers near supermarkets, shopping malls, stadiums or any other public places visited by many people regularly.

Do not over tighten. Wrap waterproof tape around the connectors between outdoor antenna and feeder line to avoid moisture ingress.
--.1/BOOST �� When choosing an indoor wide band dome antenna, the best place to install it is in the center of area that needs signal improvement. Install the dome antenna as shown on the figure below: Indoor wide band dome antenna installation for reference 1.6 Install the signal booster The signal booster should be mounted in an easily accessible area so it's easy to perform general maintenance.
As you route and pull cabling, follow these general guidelines: • Bend cables and route them smoothly, and protect the outer skin against any damage. • Keep horizontal cables straight and fasten them with a tie every three to five feet.

Band: Shows the working frequency bands where the booster is operating. UL/DL: Shows real-time uplink and downlink gain(dB). These values will change slightly as the ALC or ISO makes changes to the gain to optimize coverage. Power: Shows real-time downlink power(dBm) that the booster is delivering to the indoor antenna port.
"OSC" Status:OSC status indicates if the booster has enough isolation between outdoor and indoor antennas to avoid loop back or so-called self-oscillation. Thanks to a very smart isolation gain processing, this amplifier is fully protected from creating interference with the carrier's local cell site networks. "OSC" showing on the LCD display means that the ISO function is doing its job and the self-oscillation has been eliminated.

LED Status Status Normal, no network connected Net LED Connecting to network Green Active connection to Green flashing management server When the Alarm led indicators are flashing, please check the ISO and Alarm LED colors.
When any band shows OSC status with a yellow background, and the output power is less than the rated max output value, consider the donor antenna and service antenna isolation. The best performance is all bands show a blue circle, and the Alarm LED is solid, or slowly flashing.

TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Solution The signal booster has no power. Check that the AC outlet is working. Check all the connections between the The booster's power is on but the different components of the system. phone is not connected to the Change the direction of the outdoor donor network and still cannot antenna or its installed position.
--.1/BOOST �� 1. Adjust the antennas' directions or locations to lower downlink received signal level. 2. Slowly reduce the downlink gain using the Manual Gain Controls. 3. If the above methods don't work, reduce the booster's gain with an external attenuator in line with the outdoor antenna or replace with lower gain antenna.
