Principles of Operation

The SureCall TriFlex-2Go-V is a high-quality bidirectional signal booster that boosts
cellular signals for car s, w atercraft, motorhomes (RVs), and desktop us e. The TriFlex-

:

2Go-V works with two antennas

x An inside antenna that communicates with your cell phone.
x An outside antenna that communicates with the cell tower.

Signals sent from a cell tower are received by the outside antenna, amplifi ed by th e
booster and then sent to your phone via the inside antenna. When your phone
transmits, the signal is sent to the inside antenna, and then sent to the ce ll tower via
the outside antenna.

Some cell signal is required for the TriFlex-2Go-V to enhance cellular signal
coverage. The weakest cell signal for the TriFlex-2Go-V to work is low -100dBm to
high -90dBm. dBm is an abbreviation for the power ratio in decibels of the radio
power per one milliwatt.

To measure your existing cell signal on an Apple iPhone, dial *3001#12345#*and
press Call. In the top-left corner, a number appears instead of bars.

For Android devices, you can download several apps to measure exact signal
strength. Look up check real signal strength to find a cell signal measurement
app.
