Positioning of Boostbox Units 

Boostbox 

– Setup and Installation Guide V3.5 

Boostbox units are designed to work vertically and can either be free standing* or wall mounted. They should be 
located in as open a location as practical, i.e. not completely surrounded by obstructions such as monitors, 
printers, etc. 

* Metro Boostbox can only be wall mounted. 

 

Free Standing 

The larger office (Enterprise) Boostbox includes a small stand which can be attached to the bottom of the unit. 
This adds stability and ensures free flow of air through the bottom vents to prevent overheating.  
 

Wall Mounting 

The larger office (Enterprise) Boostbox includes 4 rubber spacers which must be fixed to the corners on the 
back of unit to ensure a 5mm spacing when wall mounting. When wall mounting, we would also recommend 
leaving a 0.5 metre gap between the top of the unit and the ceiling. 
 
The Metro Boostbox unit will typically be installed by our contractors. Where it is to be self installed we will 
provide guidance. 
 

Locations to Avoid 

In most cases, Boostbox units should not be mounted underneath desks or above false ceilings as this will 
greatly reduce their effectiveness and will likely result in a poor user experience. There may be some situations 
where this is ok in which case your O2 designer will advise. 
 

Positioning in Relation to Other Operator Boostbox Units / Femtocells 

If you have the equivalent of Boostbox from other mobile operators and wish to have them switched on together 
then you should keep them a minimum of 2 meters apart. If you can separate them by over 5 metres then this 
would be ideal.
