Warning:
Lightning protection is recommended for all installations (#859902-
50 Ohm, shown below) . Take extreme care to ensure that neither
you nor the antenna comes near any electric power lines .
Installing Lightning Protection
Install the Lightning Surge Protector (LSP) outside, in line with the coax cable from
the outside antenna, near where the coax cable from the outside antenna will enter
the building . Connect the Outside antenna cable to one of the connectors of the
surge protector . Connect the other connector on the LSP to the cable entering the
building . Ensure the LSP is
properly grounded as close to
the LSP as possible (ground
wire not included) .
Running Outside Antenna Cable
If you are mounting the outside antenna to the outside wall of your home or
building, the simplest way is to run the cable on the outside of the wall and attach it
to the exterior of your home or office . Then drill a hole through the wall where you
want the cable to appear on the inside of the building . Before drilling, make sure
that there are no electrical outlets, sewer or water pipes, or electrical wiring in the
wall that you are about to drill through as this could potentially harm you or damage
the building .
Note:
Existing TV cables already being used for another purpose can
not be shared with the cell booster installation.
After drilling the required hole, run the cable through and seal it with cable bushings
or a silicone-type sealant to enclose the hole that you have created . In some
instances, it may be possible to run the cable up into the fascia of the attic overhang .
In this circumstance, the cable will be accessible in the attic for further routing .
