Outside Wall Mount (Packet B)

1.  Select a location on an outside wall as high as 

possible and at least 20 feet away from where the 
amplifi er will be located (see Figure 8).

2.  Using the cradle as a template, position it on the 

wall in the desired location and mark the screw 
holes with a pencil.

3.  Drill two holes where marked, using a 3/16-inch 

bit and insert the screw anchors.

4.  Line up the holes in the cradle with the screw 

anchors and mount the cradle to the wall using 
two screws and two washers (see Figure 
9).  Tighten the screws with a Phillips-head 
screwdriver.

5.  Insert the antenna into the cradle 

with the 

Wilson insignia facing in the direction of 
the cell tower.

  The cable connection should 

protrude through the bottom of the cradle.

6.  Connect the supplied coax cable to the antenna.  

Route the cable as desired to where the amplifi er 
will be located. Depending on the distance 
between the amplifi er and antenna, you may 
need one or both lengths of the supplied cable.  
If you use both, connect them together with the 
supplied cable connector.

Warning: RF Safety: 

The cradle antenna, when used 

with the included cable, must have a separation distance of 
at least 8 inches from all persons. If the cable is shortened, 
or if a different type of cable is used, or if a different antenna 
is used, consult with Wilson Technical Support to verify that 
the planned installation is safe. Call 866-294-1660 or 435-

Vertical Separation Installation
 

(Pole Mount or Rafter Mount)

 

Select a location on the roof where the cradle 
antenna can be mounted on a pole directly above 
the desktop antenna with at least 15 feet vertical 
separation (see Figure 8-1). 

 

The cradle antenna may also be mounted in 
the buildings rafters, if the 15 feet of vertical 
separartion between the cradle antenna and the 
desktop can be achieved (see Figure 8-2).

Pole Mounting Option

2.  Insert the supplied U-bolt through the holes in the 

cradle and slide one half of the bracket assembly 
onto the U-bolt (see Figure 7).

3.  Fitting the assembly onto the pole, slide the 

second half of the bracket onto the U-bolt and 
secure it with lock washers and nuts.  Be sure 
the cradle is at the desired height on the pole and 
is rotated toward the nearest cell tower before 
tightening the nuts.  (Do not over-tighten the nuts.)

4.  Insert the antenna into the cradle 

with the 

Wilson insignia facing in the direction of 
the cell tower.

  The cable connection should 

protrude through the bottom of the cradle.

5.  Connect the supplied coax cable to the antenna.  

Route the cable as desired to where the amplifi er 
will be located.  Depending on the distance 
between the amplifi er and antenna, you may 
need one or both lengths of the supplied cable.  
If you use both, connect them together with the 
supplied cable connector.

NOTE: If you are planning on using the vertical 

separation mounting options the desktop 
antenna must be located at least 15 vertical 
feet below the cradle antenna and within 5 
horizontal feet of the cradle antenna. This 
space is referred to as the Null Zone
.
