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.
3. Model Description AT6200 GW dual band repeater is a unique equipment which comprises functions of two separate boosters: GSM and 3G. Correspondingly, this booster improves a mobile signal at two different frequencies at a time - 900 MHz + 2100 MHz. It makes the dual band booster suitable for all the European and other mobile providers all around the world. The 2 ...
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;...

Optionally: Splitters or couplers: when the building structure is too complicated or there is big loss due to thick walls or other reasons, splitters or couplers shall be used so that more antennas can be installed in separate zones to distribute the signals to each corner of the coverage area.
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. It is very important to choose the correct outdoor antenna location in order to get the best signal.
Installation of a Yaggi antenna as an outdoor antenna 6.2. Cable layout and connector assembly 1. Keep the type, specifications, routing direction, location and curvature radius of cables in compliance with the model requirements. Place cables in correct order, bend them smoothly, and protect the surface from any damage. 2.

Requirements to indoor antenna installation: indoor antenna should be 5 meter distance from an outdoor antenna indoor antenna should be at least 2 meters above the ground indoor antenna should be fixed vertically with the ground.
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.
6. Plug the power supply into the Signal Booster input (carefully, to avoid damaging the center pin) and then into a wall outlet. Note: It is recommended to plug all AC power supplies for home electronics into a Surge Protector Power Strip. 7.
1. BS: Donor antenna 2. MS: Service antenna 3. Power supply indicating light: Lightening, the repeater switches on the power. Out of light, the repeater switches off the power. 4. DCS / PCS / 3G UMTS WCDMA uplink gain adjustment switch: 5.

improve coverage. - Check if it is necessary to adjust the direction of the indoor antenna. - Check whether it is necessary to add one or more antennas to enhance the coverage in special areas. Remark: Reduce attenuation values * — by ensuring the isolation level Increase output power * —...

Reason 2: The signals received by outdoor antenna of other operators nearby are too strong. (For example, the other operators’ signals are 10 dB stronger than the needed signals.) Solution 1: Change the direction of the outdoor antenna or its installation position, so that the gap of signal strength is reduced between operators.

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. And when a booster is installed, it improves the mobile signals in the coverage, and your cell phone stops irradiating strongly, thus it will reduce the RF radiation of the mobile phone tremendously.
