Section # 4 Installation Cautions
∇
Use caution to avoid drilling through or near electrical, water or gas lines.
∇
Do not mount the signal amplifier or its associated wiring in a location that may contain hazardous materials or materials
that are corrosive.
∇
Do not attempt to ground the external antenna. It is designed with its own interior ground system.
∇
The interior antenna requires a ground plane. It should be mounted on any type of metal that will have a minimum of one
square foot of surface area under the antenna base.
∇
Caution: DO NOT INSTALL THE INTERIOR ANTENNA IN A HAZARDOUS LOCATION THAT MAY
CONTAIN ANY TYPE OF VOLITILE VAPORS.
Section # 5 Selecting a Suitable Location To Install The Amplifier
∇
Locate a suitable place to mount the cellular band amplifier. For exterior antennas you must mount the antenna above the
roofline of the building at a distance that can be reached from the supplied external antenna cable, on a shelf near a
electrical power source, in a dry area that is well ventilated. The amplifier’s location should be easily accessible and
mounted away from moving parts, as well as excessive heat and moisture.
∇
Antennas must be mounted a
minimum
distance of 50 cm (1.64ft) away from any person.
∇
When selecting a location for the interior antenna a minimum distance of 6 feet (1.82m) distance away from the amplifier.
∇
When 2 or more antennas are located in the same area, they
must
be mounted at different heights to insure optimum
performance.
∇
Exterior antennas can only be installed outdoors. Under no circumstances can an exterior antenna be installed indoors,
Doing so will result in amplifier failure and void the warranty.
∇
If the signal level is increased in some areas but not others, it may be due to location of interior antenna or building
materials acting as a shield for the radio signals. This can be overcome by re-positioning the interior antenna or, the use of
2 internal antennas in conjunction with a very low loss high quality splitter. Please note that the interior antennas must be at
least twenty five (25) feet apart and should be separated by gypsum clad, masonry or metal constructed wall.
