External Aerial Location
The most important part of the installation is the location and orientation of the
external aerial. The external aerial is a square flat panel that has a small coax lead
connected to it. The external aerial should be separated from the base repeater as
much as possible to avoid potential feedback between the two units. When installing
the external aerial please consider the following:
Physical Location
•
The external aerial should ideally be mounted as high as possible outside in
order to provide the best signal input to the base repeater unit. Please find
the location outside where you have the strongest signal on your phone.
Please check to make sure you are able to place a call on your phone at this
location.
Direction/Orientation
•
The panel aerial is directional and should be installed so that it points
towards to local base station for your network provider. The external aerial
applies the highest amount of signal gain when pointed in the direction – The
stronger the input signal to the repeater the better the indoor coverage will
be.
* Note -‐ you can use www.sitefinder.ofcom.org.uk to locate base stations in your
postcode or call your network provider to check.
Please seal the connection of the cable connector of the aerial on to the end of the
coax so that it is waterproof.
