Easy Installation
Neat and clean installation while leaving the
unit easily accessible.
Onboard Software For
Better Control
Automatically controlled with onboard
software, ensuring great connectivity
throughout large spaces and multi-story
buildings.
Color LCD For Easier
Access
Unlike other boosters, the WilsonPro
1000 has a color LCD screen with fourway navigation, allowing integrators to
have easy and e ective control of the
product.

Connectivity
XDR allows the booster to never shutdown
due to too strong of a signal. No matter how
strong, the booster will never overpower and
shutdown.

The WilsonPro 1000 cell signal booster
is Wilson’s fl agship amplifi er system
providing signifi cantly enhanced voice
and data coverage, including 4G LTE,
inside large homes and commercial
buildings where cell signals may not
otherwise penetrate. The result for your
clients are no more dropped calls or lost
connections, faster uploads/downloads and a reliable, up to 32x stronger signal. The
WilsonPro 1000 delivers maximum FCC-allowed downlink power to provide the largest
possible indoor signal coverage.
The WilsonPro 1000 also includes Wilson Electronics’ state-of-the-art XDR (Extra
Dynamic Range) technology that prevents signal overload conditions which can, in
accordance with FCC regulations, force a booster to shut down.
When the WilsonPro 1000 senses that any incoming cell signal is too strong and
threatens to overload the system, XDR automatically reduces signal gain to compensate
for this overload condition while maintaining signal coverage throughout the building. In
contrast, competing signal boosters shut down when they reach a maximum incoming
signal strength threshold, causing the indoor cell signal to drop out. Both antenna ports
are located on the top of the booster unit for easy installation. Like all WilsonPro cell
signal boosters, the WilsonPro 1000 booster system is universal: it works for all cellular
devices, all services including 4G LTE, and all U.S. and Canada cell phone carriers.
The 1000 Delivers Maximum Downlink Power

Simple Wall-Mount Installation: A signal-in and signal-out port are
located on top of the Pro 1000 for easy antenna connections, while an
exposed mounting fl ange at each corner of the booster provides for
simple and clean wall-mount installation.
Onboard Software for Better Control: Booster is automatically
controlled with automatic onboard software, ensuring great
connectivity throughout large spaces and multi-story buildings.
The booster will adjust its gain level up or down as required by the
conditions of the immediate signal environment.
Extended Dynamic Range (XDR) for continuous connectivity: Gives
the 1000 much greater tolerance for a strong incoming signal from the
tower. XDR lets the 1000 system work with an incoming signal stronger
than any competing booster and never shuts down due to a strong
outside signal.
Color LCD for Easier Access: Unlike other boosters, the Wilson 1000
has a color LCD screen with four-way navigation, allowing integrators
to optimize antenna position and maximize the performance of the
booster.

Highest Downlink Power: Up to +15dB more downlink power than
the competition allows for stronger signal in environments where the
incoming signal is weak. The benefi t is a stronger signal sent to the
inside antennas, providing larger coverage area from a single booster.
Highest Uplink Power: This allows for a stronger signal transmitted
to the tower, up to +3dB more than the competition, providing greater
user capacity and increased range from the cell site.
Lower Overload and Shutdown Threshold: No matter how strong the
outside signal, the WilsonPro 1000 never shuts down. This is a huge
benefi t in strong signal environments like cities and locations close to
a carrier tower.
Intelligent Control: WilsonPro cellular boosters automatically adjust
signal gain while still providing even signal coverage throughout the
building.
Sophisticated Software: Cellular signals are constantly fl uctuating.
The software is always monitoring signal levels and making immediate
adjustments as needed, allowing the booster to operate at maximum
gain consistently.

The WilsonPRO 1000 is designed with advanced internal programming, which allows it
to automatically adjust for a variety of conditions, while still boosting weak signals.
Once the AC power cable and antenna cables are connected, turn the unit on by
toggling the power switch located near the AC power receptacle.

Setup

The 1000 takes about 20 seconds to boot up. Once boot up is complete, the status
screen will appear, showing the amplifi cation and status of each port and band.
A solid green light indicates that a band
is operating correctly with maximum
allowable gain.
A solid yellow light indicates band gain
reduction because of an oscillation
condition. Reposition antennas (more
separation between indoor and outdoor
antennas, and pointed in opposite
directions) and reboot (power cycle)
the 1000 for maximum performance.
When adequate separation is achieved,
the yellow lights will return to green
upon reboot. Note that when the light
is yellow, the band is operational;
however, performance is reduced.

A red light indicates a band which has
been completely shut down because
of a severe oscillation condition or
repeated oscillation events. Reposition
antennas (more separation between
indoor and outdoor antennas, and
pointed in opposite directions) and
then reboot (power cycle) the 1000
to reactivate the band and maximize
performance. When adequate
separation is achieved, the red light(s)
will return to green upon reboot.
