Installation Overview
The following steps provide a summary of the Signal Booster/antenna installation process.
However, they are
not
a substitute for the complete installation instructions on the following
pages, which you should read thoroughly. Contact Wilson Electronics Technical Support
Department with any questions at 866-294-1660.
STEP 1: Install the Outside Antenna
Mount the Yagi antenna so that it points toward the cell tower and away from where the
Inside Antenna will be located. Depending on your Signal Booster model, the two antennas
will need 50-75 feet of separation (see illustrations on pages 5 and 6). Lightning Surge
Protection is recommended for all in-building installations (see page 6).
STEP 2: Install the Inside Antenna
Select a location in the center of where the signal needs to be amplified. Refer to the
instructions included with the Inside Antenna. (See illustration on page 5.)
STEP 3: Install the Signal Booster
Position the Signal Booster in a well-ventilated location near a power outlet. Attach the
Outside and Inside Antennas to the Signal Booster using Wilson 400 low loss cable
(available from Wilson Electronics). See page 6 for more information.
STEP 4: Power up the Signal Booster
IMPORTANT!
Before connecting the power supply, ensure that both the Inside and Outside
Antenna cables are connected. Also ensure that all cell phones and cellular data cards
within 50 feet of the Inside Antenna are turned off. Plug in the supplied power supply
into the Signal Booster and then into a AC power strip (power supply sold separately in
801175). See page 7 for more information. Wilson
Electronics recommends that all AC
power supplies for home electronics be plugged into a AC Power Strip with at least a
1000
Joule
rating.
STEP 5: Check the Signal Booster Lights
The PWR light should be green, indicating that the Signal Booster has power. If all other
lights are also green, the Signal Booster is operating properly; however, if you do not have
the desired signal coverage area, refer to pages 5, 6, 8, 9 and 10.
Note: If you are using an outdoor Yagi Antenna, it must be adjusted for maximum signal.
