Installation Instructions for the Following
Wilson Electronics Signal Boosters:

How it Works

Designed for professional installation to provide signal coverage in buildings up to 80,000
square feet. The Wilson AG Pro Quint boosts signals on 800 MHz, 1900MHz, AWS and both
AT&T and Verizon 700 MHz 4G networks as well as Sprint 4G on the G-Block of 1900 MHz.
The AG Pro Quint is the most affordable five-band Signal Booster available. Wilson’s compact,
integrated design is about the size of a textbook and weighs less than 3 pounds. The AG Pro
Quint’s control knobs allow the installer to optimize the gain on each of the frequency bands.

The AG Pro Quint delivers up to 75 dB of gain and supports CDMA, GSM, EVDO, LTE, HSPA+
and WCDMA technologies. It can be paired with an Outside Directional Antennas and a variety
of Wilson Inside Antennas to create a custom Signal Booster system. Like all Wilson Signal
Boosters this unit features cell tower protection technologies refined over more than a decade
of research and development.

1. Select a location to install the Signal Booster that is away from excessive heat,
direct sunlight, moisture and has proper ventilation. Do not place the Signal

Booster in an air-tight enclosure.

2. Select a location on the roof of the building to install the Outside Antenna. Use
a cell phone in test mode to find the strongest signal from the cell tower (refer
to page 6). Visit www.WilsonElectronics.com to find test mode function for your
particular cell phone.

3. Run the Outside Antenna cable to the Signal Booster and attach it to the
connector labeled “Outside Antenna” on the Signal Booster. Run the Inside
Antenna cable to the Signal Booster and attach it to the connector labeled
“Inside Antenna” on the Signal Booster.

For more information on running cable

(refer to page 7). Lightning Surge Protection is recommended for all in-building
installations (refer to page 6).

4. Select a location for the Inside Antenna, preferably in the center of where the
signal needs to be amplified. A minimum separation distance of 20 vertical feet
(within the null zone) or 50 horizontal feet is necessary for proper operation.
If the inside coverage is not sufficient you may need as much as 75 feet of
horizontal separation (refer to installation diagram on pages 3 & 4).

5. Before powering up the Signal Booster, verify that both the Outside Antenna
and the Inside Antenna are connected and check that all connections are tight.

Note: Be careful when plugging the connectors in so as not to bend the center
pins on the connectors (

refer to page 9).

6. The Signal Booster has been packaged with the gain control knobs adjusted
to the highest gain position. If any of the lights are not green, please refer to
pages 10 & 11.

Quick Install Overview

See Installation Diagram on page 3. Contact Wilson Electronics Technical Support
Team with any questions at 866-294-1660 Mon. - Fri. hours: 7am to 6pm MST.

Warning: Connecting the Signal Booster directly to a cell phone with use of

an adapter will damage the cell phone and/or the Signal Booster.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

• It is very important to power your Signal Booster using a
surge protected AC Power Strip with at least a 1000 Joule

rating.

• Failure to do this will void your warranty in the event of a
power surge or lightning strike.

Inside Antenna

Preferred Method: Place the Inside
Antenna in the ceiling facing down for
the best coverage.

Note: A Lightning Surge Protector is
recommended for all building installations
(sold separately). Make sure the protector
is installed in line between the Outside
Antenna and the Signal Booster.

Null Zone: The area under the
Outside Antenna, where the
Outside Antenna radiates the
least.

Note: The Inside Antenna may be
mounted on the wall directly under the
Outside Antenna, in the null zone, if
20 feet of vertical separation can be
maintained.
