PRO 1000C IN-BUILDING CELL SIGNAL AMPLIFIER WITH REMOTE MONITORING
3
The Pro 1000C is the industry’s fi rst
platform for cloud-based management
and monitoring of cellular signal
amplifi ers.
The WilsonPro Cloud allows an
integrator to manage and monitor
installed cellular amplifi ers
from a phone, tablet, laptop, or any device that runs a Web browser. You can get
customizable email and text notifi cations to alert you to any status change of your
installed amplifi ers, including notifi cation if a system ever goes o ine.
With the WilsonPro Cloud you can remotely reset an amp or selectively turn specifi c
frequency bands on and o , so the integrator avoids costly troubleshooting site visits.
The platform also provides report generation, performance and signal level histories,
and organization of monitored amps by account and location. There’s even a remote
donor antenna tuning tool.
For installers and integrators, subscribing to the WilsonPro Cloud means you can
sell your clients extended service plans, generating recurring revenue streams for
your business. And for your clients, the WilsonPro Cloud provides ultra-high system
reliability and guaranteed uptime.
The 1000C amplifi er connects to the WilsonPro Cloud right out of the box via an LTE
modem on the donor antenna, or through a traditional hardwired Ethernet port. The
wireless LTE connection is included in the annual WilsonPro Cloud subscription, so no
additional Internet connection is required.

Simple Wall-Mount Installation: An indoor and outdoor
port are located on top of the Pro 1000C for easy antenna
connections, while an exposed mounting fl ange at each
corner of the amplifi er provides for simple and clean wallmount installation.
Onboard Software for Better Control: The amplifi er is
automatically controlled with automatic onboard software,
ensuring great connectivity throughout large spaces and
multi-story buildings. The amplifi er 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 1000C 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 amplifi er and
never shuts down due to a strong outside signal.
Color LCD for Easier Access: Unlike other amplifi ers, the
Pro 1000C has a color LCD screen with four-way navigation,
allowing integrators to optimize antenna position and
maximize the performance of the amplifi er.
Remote LTE Connected Monitoring: Get immediate
notifi cation if the 1000C stops working or if band
conditions change.

Highest Downlink Power: Up to +15dBm downlink output
power 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 amplifi er.
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 Pro 1000C never shuts down.
This is a huge benefi t in strong signal environments like cities
and locations close to a carrier tower.
Intelligent Control: Pro cellular amplifi ers automatically
adjust signal gain while still providing even signal coverage
throughout the building.
More Secure: Connectivity and remote monitoring via LTE, so
no “sharing” of existing premises network resources which
creates a more secure system.

The WilsonPro Pro 1000C o ers the same cost-e ective, FCC and carrier approved pas-
sive DAS amplifi er solution that installers and integrators have come to trust, including
the added functionality, alerts, and troubleshooting of an enhanced cloud management
and monitoring solution.
Once the AC power cable and antenna cables are connected, scan the QR code on
the Quick Registration Card to add the amplifi er to your WilsonPro Cloud account. For

The Pro 1000C 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 1000C 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. Reposition
antennas (more separation between
indoor and outdoor antennas, and
point in opposite directions) and then
reboot (turn the unit on & o ) the 1000C
to reactivate the band and maximize
performance. When adequate separation
is achieved, the red light(s) will return to
green upon reboot.
This screen provides specifi c band
information, including the strength
of the received uplink and downlink
signal, status details, and the
amplifi er gain.
By pressing enter on a highlighted light,
as shown, a more detailed status screen
will be displayed for the highlighted band.

In the presence of a strong outdoor
cell tower signal, the 1000C will
reduce it’s “boost” (Gain) using
internal Automatic Gain Control (AGC).
This gain reduction is necessary
to stay within FCC requirements.
When this occurs, the 1000C has
reached the ‘speed limit’ so this is
good! The outside antenna should
always be adjusted until the “DL” bar
is maximized and “AGC” is indicated.
This may not be possible with a weak
outside signal.
Band Details Screen
This screen indicates band gain
has been reduced because of the
oscillation condition detected at a
