Antenna and Booster Installation
Donor Antenna: (outdoor signal antenna)
a) Location: There are three choices. fig. 2, 3, 4.
The choice of donor antenna location depends on the signal strength at the donor antenna
location. Use your phone to determine if signal at your chosen location is adequate. Better
signal level at the donor antenna location equals larger indoor coverage area.
b) Directional Donor Antenna: if using an optional directional donor antenna, point the
antenna toward the desired tower. If the location of the desired tower is not known, initiate a
phone call and use the signal indicator on your phone after the booster is operational, while
turning the donor antenna, to determine optimum donor antenna direction for maximum
signal strength.
c) Omni-directional Donor Antenna: if using an omni-directional donor antenna, it is
recommended that it is placed as far as possible from the inside antenna, usually, ‘outside pole
mount’ is recommended (Fig. 4). Use of omni-directional antennas will require more
separation distance compared to directional antennas. Fig. 1
Distribution Antenna: (indoor signal antenna)
a) Location: There are three choices. fig. 2, 3, 4.
The choice of donor antenna location depends on the area to be covered.
b) Directional Distribution Antenna: it is recommended that directional antennas
are oriented in a fashion that is back to back of each other Fig. 1
c) Omni-directional Distribution Antenna: it is important that omni-directional
antennas are separated as far apart as possible from each other. Use of omni-directional
antennas will require more separation distance compared to directional antennas
d) Splitting Indoor Signal: it is possible to use more than one indoor antenna to
cover areas that are separated by walls or floors by using antenna splitters or
power dividers, however splitters have a level of signal loss (3dB) and the added cable run
will also have signal loss, therefore the coverage area will be diminished. As a general rule, if
outside signal is good, splitting signal to more than one
distribution antenna results in reasonable coverage.
If outside signal is poor or marginal, splitting signal to more than one distribution antenna
results in decreased coverage for both distribution antennas.
Use only genuine SmoothTalker splitters. Contact your dealer or www.smoothtalker.com
Amplifier/Booster Location:
Install the repeater in a location that has proper ventilation, away from excessive heat and
moisture.
WARNING:
Make sure all cables have a good connection and are connected to the corresponding
antenna port on the Booster.
DO NOT APPLY POWER or turn on the power switch on the Amplifier/Booster
before all cables and antennas are connected.
Connection and Start Procedure:
Antenna connections must be snug and hand tight, ‘Do Not Use Pliers or Wrench’.
Connect the cable from outdoor antenna to RF port (antenna connector) labeled “Outdoor
Antenna”. Connect cable from indoor antenna to RF port labeled “Indoor Antenna”.
Connect supplied AC/DC power supply to the amplifier and plug it into power source.
Turn on the power switch on the Amplifier/Booster.
