How it Works

Y our new Wilson amplifi er has been carefully engineered to signifi cantly improve the
performance of your cell phone or cellular data card in mobile applications. Together with
an outside antenna (sold separately), the amplifi er’s state-of-the-art technology is designed
to increase your signal up to 10 times, reduce disconnects and dropouts, and increase data
communication rates needed for 3G technologies.

The outside antenna will collect the cell tower signal and send it through the cable to the
amplifi er. The signal is then boosted and sent through the inside antenna. Your cell phone
or data card then communicates with the improved signal. When the cell phone or data
card transmits, the signal goes through the inside antenna, is boosted by the amplifi er and
broadcast back to the cell tower through the outside antenna.

Wilson Electronics manufactures a wide variety of antennas to help you customize your
amplifi er for your specifi c application. Several are shown below. See your dealer or visit
www.wilsonelectronics.com.

NOTE: Use of this amplifi er with an
antenna gain higher than 6.12 dBi is in
violation of FCC regulations for which the
offender is fully liable. All Wilson mobile
antennas are 6.12 dBi or less.
