Installing Your Hardware
Step 2. Install the Outside Antenna
1. Outside omni antennas receive and send signals in a 360º radius. Yagi, or directional
antennas work best when facing the direction of cellular phone towers. Mount the outside
antenna as high as possible. If you are installing a Yagi antenna set it up facing the
cellular tower in the area where you located the best signal source (see step 1 on the
previous page).
2. Make sure that the mounting area has at least a 12-inch radius clear of obstructions and
other radiating elements.
3. If the mounting area is prone to weak cellular signals or if the density of the roof and
ceiling partially block the signal, the booster will operate at its default setting of 65 dB
gain, be sure to place the outside antenna at least 75 feet from the inside antenna for
best performance.
4. Do not collocate antennas or operate the outside antenna with any other antenna or
signal booster.
5. Run the cable from the outside antenna to the signal booster. Hand tighten the connec-
tion
IMPORTANT
: For boosters enhancing T-Mobile’s AWS frequencies, the FCC has stated for consumer signal boosters operating as a fixed
station in the 1710 - 1755 MHz uplink 2110 - 2155 downlink bands, the users or installation manual must contain the 30 foot
height restriction requirements per FCC 27.50(d)(4).
