How it Works
Your new Wilson amplifier has been carefully engineered to significantly improve the
performance of your cell phone or cellular data card in mobile and in-building applications.
Together with an outside antenna, the amplifier’s state-of-the-art technology is designed
to increase your signal up to 6 times, reduce disconnects and dropouts, and increase data
communication rates needed for 3G technologies.
The outside antenna will collect the cell tower signal and send it through the cable to the
amplifier. The signal is then boosted and sent through the built-in inside antenna. Your cell
phone or data card then communicates with the improved signal. When the cell phone or
data card transmits, the signal goes through the inside antenna, is boosted by the amplifier
and broadcast back to the cell tower through the outside antenna.
Wilson Electronics manufactures a wide variety of outside antennas to help you customize
your amplifier for your specific application. Several are shown below. See your dealer or visit
www.wilsonelectronics.com.

Installing a Wilson Outside Antenna on a Vehicle
To receive the best cell signal, select a location in the center of the vehicle’s roof 12 inches
away from any other antennas and free of obstructions.
Follow the specific antenna installation instructions included with the outside antenna (sold
separately except for certain kits).
The outside antenna must be installed
vertically. Signal performance will be
degraded if the antenna is not vertical.

For a more professional-looking installation,
the antenna cable may be run under the
door seal. Carefully pull down the door
seal. Run the cable through the seal
and push the seal back into place. This
prevents constant wear and tear on the
cable as the door opens and closes.
Installing a Wilson Mobile Professional Amplifier in a Vehicle
The Wilson Mobile Professional Amplifier is
designed for installation on the dashboard
of your vehicle, using the supplied adhesive
bracket. Attach the bracket in a suitable
location to the right of the steering wheel.
NOTE: Be sure to select a location for
the amplifier that does not inhibit your
ability to operate the vehicle safely.
Once you have installed the bracket,
attach the Mobile Professional Amplifier by
aligning the hole on the back with the hook
on the bracket. Grasping the sides of the
amplifier, slide it downward approximately
¼ inch into place.
Attaching the Antenna
Warning: The amplifier must be placed
so that a separation distance of at least 8
inches is maintained from all persons during
normal operation.
Run the cable from the outside antenna
and attach it to the SMA connector
labeled “antenna” on the amplifier.
Be sure that the cable does not
interfere with your ability to
operate the vehicle safely.
Installing a Wilson Outside Antenna in a Building
Follow the specific antenna instructions included with the outside antenna (sold separately
except for certain kits). These instructions assume that you are using a Wilson magnet-mount
or mini magnet-mount antenna and the optional suction-cup window bracket.
To receive the best signal, select a window on the side of your building where your outside
signal is the strongest.
Attach the suction-cup bracket to the inside
of a window so that the cable will reach
the amplifier location. Place the bracket as
high on the window as possible for best
performance.
Warning: The outside antenna must
have a separation of at least 8 inches from all
persons during normal operation.
Once the bracket is in place, attach the
magnet base of the antenna to the flat
surface of the bracket. Note: the antenna
must be installed vertically. Signal
performance will be degraded if the
antenna is not vertical.
Installing the Wilson Mobile Professional Amplifier in a Building
The Wilson Mobile Professional Amplifier
may be placed in any convenient indoor
location, such as a desk or tabletop. The
closer the cell phone or laptop data card
is to the amplifier (with its built-in inside
antenna), the better will be its performance.
Attaching the Antenna
Once you have selected the location for
the amplifier, run the cable from the outside
antenna and attach it to the SMA connector
labeled “antenna” on the amplifier. Note:
the amplifier and the outside antenna must
have a minimum separation of 5 feet to
prevent oscillation.
Powering up the Wilson Mobile Professional Amplifier
In a Vehicle
NT
E NN
Make sure the outside antenna cable is
connected before powering up the amplifier.
Carefully insert the USB power cable.
Connect the mini-USB plug on the power
cable to the amplifier port marked by the
USB symbol. Connect the other end of the
power cable to the USB port on the cigarette
lighter adapter and insert the adapter into the
cigarette lighter outlet of your vehicle. (If you
are using a laptop to power your amplifier,
insert the other end of the power cable into
a USB port on the laptop and power up the
The amplifier may remain on all the time.
However, leaving the amplifier on in a
vehicle when it is not running can discharge
the battery in a day or two.
A good option is to power the amplifier
through the ignition switch so the amplifier
is turned on and off with the vehicle.
In a Building
Make sure the outside antenna cable is
connected before powering up the amplifier.
Connect the mini-USB plug on the AC
adapter cable to the amplifier port marked
by the USB symbol. Connect the other end
of the cable to a standard AC power outlet.
(If you are using a computer to power your
amplifier, use the supplied USB cable.)
IMPORTANT: Do not power up the amplifier
unless the outside antenna cable is attached
to amplifier.
Warning: Use only Wilson cigarette
lighter or AC adapters
Understanding the Amplifier Lights
If the light turns red, oscillation is occurring and the amplifier has powered down. The
outside antenna needs to be moved farther from the built-in antenna in the amplifier. In a
vehicle installation, move the outside antenna on the roof of the car to the rear of the car,
but at least 8-12 inches from the rear or side windows. In a building installation, move the
amplifier farther from the outside antenna. Remove power from the amplifier and reinstall
power - this resets the amplifier.
If the light is now green, the oscillation has stopped and the amplifier is working. If the red
light is still on, move the antenna farther away and repeat the process.
In a vehicle, always use a magnet-mount or roof-mount antenna. Do not use a glassmount antenna, as oscillation may cause continuous shut-down of the amplifier.
An amber light indicates overload from the cell site. The amplifier has
temporarily shut down and will automatically reset approximately 1,000 feet
or more from the cell site.
Warnings and Recommendations
Warning:
Do not plug the amplifier directly into the cell phone or cellular
data card using an antenna adapter. It will damage the cell
phone or cellular data card.
Warning:
Do not plug in the DC power supply until the outside antenna
cable is attached to the amplifier.
Warning:
RF Safety: The amplifier with its built-in antenna must be
installed with a separation of at least 8 inches from all persons
and must not be located in conjunction with any other antenna or
amplifier.
Warning:
RF Safety: The outside antenna must be installed with a
separation of at least 8 inches from any of the vehicle’s
occupants or nearby persons and must not be located or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna or amplifier. All
roof-mount antennas should be centrally located on the roof of
the vehicle. Use of this cellular amplifier with an antenna gain
higher than 6.12 dBi is in violation of FCC regulations for which
the offender is fully liable. All Wilson mobile antennas are 6.12
dBi or less.
Separation of inside and outside antennas is very important. In a vehicle,
the metal roof acts as a barrier and helps shield the two antennas from
each other, preventing oscillation.
If the vehicle has a sunroof, it is important to separate the inside and outside antennas
by at least five feet. This prevents the amplifier from overloading or oscillating.
Distance between antennas
through a sunroof must be
5 feet or more.

Notes:
1. Nominal gain is the maximum gain at any frequency in the passband.
2. Nominal bandwidth is the difference between two frequencies that are adjacent to the passband where the amplification is 20 dB
lower than the passband amplification. One of the frequencies is lower than the passband and the other is higher.
3. The Manufacturer’s rated output power of this equipment is for single carrier operation. For situations when multiple carrier
signals are present, the rating would have to be reduced by 3.5 dB, especially where the output signal is re-radiated and can
cause interference to adjacent band users. This power reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by
an attenuator at the output of the device.
4. The maximum power for 2 or more simultaneous signals will be reduced by 6 dB every time the number of signals is doubled.
