For maximum precision in signal level testing, switch your cell phone into Field Test Mode and see dB parameter. The closer dB
signal level to 0, the better cell phone reception you’ll get.
• -105 to -100 = Bad/drop call
• -99 to -90 = Getting bad/signal may break up
• -89 to -80 = OK/shouldn't have problems, but maybe
• -79 to -65 = Good
• Over -65 = Excellent
Your task is to get at least -79dB signal to ensure reliable communication and strong signal inside the building.
Remark:
•
Reduce attenuation values *
— by ensuring the isolation level
•
Increase output power *
— recommended ways: to adjust outdoor antenna direction/location, or replace it to an
antenna with higher gain to increase input signal strength.
Repeater can not communicate in Power-ON status
The repeater’s power is on but the phone cannot get connected to the network and still can not communicate.
Reason:
There are loose or wrong connections in the repeater system.
Solution:
Please try to fasten the connections between different parts of the system.
