How It Works
Wilson Electronics Wide Band Log Periodic Directional Antenna will collect the cell tower
signal and send it through the cable to a signal booster, cell phone or cellular data card.
When the cell phone or cellular data card transmits, the signal is transferred to a signal
booster or directly to the antenna and broadcast back to the cell tower.

Antenna Installation
The antenna should be mounted as shown in the illustration above. The included
mounting bracket is adjustable and will accommodate pipe diameters from 1.25” to 2”
(pipe not included). Mount the antenna so that there is at least 3 feet of clearance in all
directions around it. Position the antenna so that it has the most unobstructed line of
sight to the cellular service provider’s strongest signal. If you are using a wireless signal
booster, make sure the antenna is not pointing across your own roof.
Warning: Lightning protection is recommended for all installations (Wilson
Electronics Part #859902). Take extreme care to ensure that neither you nor the
antenna comes near any electric power lines.

Adjusting the Antenna for Maximum Performance
To adjust the antenna for best performance, connect it to your cell phone with an external
adapter and a length of coaxial cable. External antenna adapters and coaxial cables
are sold separately. Put the cell phone in test mode and turn the Antenna in 10-degree
increments while checking the cell phone’s signal level. At each point you may need to
wait a few seconds as your cell phone updates. To find your phone’s test mode, visit
www.wilsonelectronics.com. Signal readings usually appear as a negative number (for
example, -86). The larger the number, the more powerful the signal (-75 is stronger than
-84).
Antenna Adapter
An 18-inch external adapter may be required to connect the cell phone or cellular data
card directly to the antenna. The external adapter is cell phone/data card specific and
may be purchased through a local retailer. Refer to Wilson Electronics Adapter Guide
to identify the right adapter for your cell phone or cellular data card. The Adapter
Guide is available through a local retailer. It is also available on our web site, www.
wilsonelectronics.com, or you may call Technical Support at 866-294-1660.

Wilson Electronics also offers a wide range of phone adapters to connect your cell
phone, to a signal booster, or directly to the antenna.
Important: If you are using a wireless signal booster, be sure the Antenna is not
pointing across the building in which you are trying to get coverage. The antenna
should point away from the building to help prevent oscillation (feedback).
Once you have obtained the strongest signal, fully tighten the mounting hardware.
Ultra low loss coax is recommended for lengths 20’ or greater to prevent significant
