How It Works
How it works
1. An outside antenna collects signal from the cell tower.
2. The outside antenna sends the signal to the booster through coax cable.
3. The booster amplies the cell signal and rebroadcasts the signal indoors from via the inside antenna to all
mobile devices within range.
4. The system also works in reverse amplifying outgoing signal back to the tower.

BEFORE INSTALLATION
1. Prior to securing the location of any booster parts, a “soft install” is recommended as adjustments may be needed to optimize performance.
2. Ensure adequate separation between the planned locations of the inside and outside antenna – at least 25 ft (see diagram ”Antenna Separation” on page 7).
3. For kits that use directional antennas (outside or inside), the directional antenna(s) should be oriented in a way that they do not “face” the other antenna (see “Aiming Directional Antennas” Diagram).
4. Ensure sufcient cable length between the outside antenna location and booster location. The length of the provided cable is 50 ft.
Installation Overview
Step 1. Find the outside area with the strongest signal. Step 2. Install the outside antenna identied in step 1. Step 3. Install the Inside antenna and booster. Step 4. Connect power source and turn on. Step 5. Congure gain settings if needed.
INSTALLATION
Step 1. Find the Area With the Strongest Signal
Using your phone, identify the outside location with the strongest signal for placement of your outside antenna. Generally, this is found above the rooine on the side facing your nearest cell tower and as high as possible – where the antenna can ‘see’ your cell tower. To nd the location of your carrier’s closest cell tower, go to
www.antennasearch.com.
The coverage area that the booster provides is directly related to the strength of incoming signal received by the outdoor antenna. Mounting the outside antenna where the signal is the strongest will provide the best results. Please note, as seen in the table below, if signal is extremely weak where the outside antenna is installed, indoor coverage will be limited.
Estimated coverage:
Outdoor signal strength (dB)
1-2 Bars (-85 to -95)
3-4 Bars (-75 to -84)
5 Bars (-65 to -74)
