Preparation You Will Need (tools not included) Make sure the following materials are prepared and ready for your installation. 1 to 2 hours 2 people (a person to help antenna calibration) Ladder Drill (if routing cable through wall) 1”-3” diameter existing pole for mounting Outdoor Antenna (Pole Mount can be purchased separately if needed) Recommended: Power Strip with surge protection...
Step 1: Install the Booster Install the Booster with built-in indoor antenna where you need the greatest signal boost and place it in your desired location. Mount the signal booster in a ventilated and dry place that is easily accessible for maintenance (it should be located near a power outlet) While choosing a location for the booster, please keep in mind that there must be at least 20 ft of vertical separation between the outdoor antenna...
Step 2: Mount & Point Outside Antenna Toward Nearest Cell Tower Pole mounting and wall mounting options are included. The pole mounting option is preferred because it will be easier to adjust to the direction of the cell tower. Attach the Mount to the Outside Antenna and use the Bracket Clamps to attach the Antenna to a pole or exhaust pipe.

Point the Outside Antenna toward the nearest cell phone tower. To find the nearest tower, use an app such as 'Open Signal'. This is the most critical step of the installation process because it will determine the overall performance of the booster system.

Booster and Antenna mutual position The outside antenna should be oriented in a way that it does not “face” the booster with built-in indoor antenna. Caution: Do not aim an outside antenna towards the booster with built-in indoor antenna.
Step 3: Route & Connect Outside Antenna To Booster Connect the 60ft RG6 Cable to Outside Antenna and route cable into the home, secure the cable near the antenna. All connections should be finger tightened only. Route cable to the Booster and connect to the port labeled 'OUTSIDE'.
Step 4: Power Up The Booster & Optimize The System Plug in the Power Supply and connect it to the nearest power outlet. NOTE: We strongly recommend using a power strip with surge protection.
