Quick Install Overview

See Installation Diagram on page 3 . Contact Wilson Electronics Technical 

Support Team with any questions at 866-294-1660 .

Select a location to install the Signal Booster that is away from excessive 

1 . 

heat, direct sunlight, moisture and has proper ventilation .  Do not place the 

Signal Booster in an air-tight enclosure .

 

Select a location on the roof of the building to install the Outside Antenna . 

2 . 

Use a cell phone in test mode to find the strongest signal from the cell 

tower (see page 6) . Visit 

www.WilsonElectronics.com

 to find test mode 

function for your particular cell phone .
Run the Outside Antenna cable to the Signal Booster and attach it to 

3 . 

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 (see page 7) . Lightning Surge Protection is recommended 

for all in-building installations (see page 6) .
Select a location for the Inside Antenna, preferably in the center of 

4 . 

where the signal needs to be amplified . A minimum separation distance 

of 

20

 

vertical (within the null zone) or 50 horizontal

 feet is necessary 

for proper operation . If the inside coverage is not sufficient you may 

need to increase the separation distance even further (see installation 

diagram on pages 3 & 4) . 
Before powering up the Signal Booster, verify that both the Outside 

5 . 

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 

(see page 9) .

The Signal Booster has been packaged with the gain control knobs 

6 . 

adjusted to the highest gain position . If any of the lights are not green, 

please refer to pages 10-12 . 

 

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 .
