Installing a Wilson Electronics Signal Booster

Select a location to install the signal booster that is away from

excessive heat, direct sunlight, moisture and that has proper

ventilation . Do not place the signal booster in an air-tight

enclosure .

Recommended installation locations for in-building signal boosters

are:

• On a shelf

• In a closet

• Near a power outlet.

Note:

It is important to have adequate air ventilation. Maintain

at least 6 inches of clearance from surrounding objects.

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 .

Note:

Be careful when

plugging the connector in to

avoid bending the center pins

on the connectors.
