How it Works
Wilson Electronics Signal Boosters are bi-directional devices that
deliver service levels consistent with what would be expected in areas
of high cell network coverage. They amplify a weak or shadowed
signal in mobile, marine, M2M and in-building applications. When
using a Wilson Electronics Signal Booster in conjunction with
Wilson Electronics antennas, the Outside Antenna will collect
the cell tower signal and send it through the cable to the Signal
Booster. The signal is then amplified and re-transmitted through the
Inside Antenna into the room. Cell phones and cellular data cards
in that area then communicate with the improved signal. When a
cell phone or cellular device transmits, the signal is received by the
Inside Antenna, amplified by the Signal Booster and broadcasted
back to the cell tower through the Outside Antenna.

Reasons for Weak Cellular Signals
Anyone who uses a cell phone or cellular data card knows the
frustration of not being able to connect to or maintain a strong
cellular signal. When this occurs, it is generally due to one of two
reasons:
Location of the Nearest Cell Tower – Cell towers are situated 1.
to provide broad coverage; however, there are many areas in
which signal strength may be reduced by topographic features
or by local government restrictions on the height or placement
of the towers themselves. Rural areas generally have fewer cell
towers than urban regions.
Natural and Man-Made Obstructions – Signal strength can 2.
also be negatively affected by trees, hills, buildings, weather,
and other obstructions. You may be relatively close to a cell
tower but still unable to make a call. This often occurs in homes,
offices and other buildings in which stucco, concrete or metal
walls may block the signal.
The Signal Booster works with two antennas. The Inside Antenna
communicates with your cellular device and the Outside Antenna
communicates with the cell tower. The Outside Antenna receives
the cell tower signal and sends it through the cable to the Signal
Booster, where it is amplified and re-transmitted much stronger
through the Inside Antenna into the room. When the Inside Antenna
picks up a signal from your cellular device, the Signal Booster
amplifies that signal and transmits it through the cable to the Outside
Antenna and back to the cell tower. (Note: The Signal Booster will
only operate if there is an adequate signal to amplify.)

Installing Lightning Protection
Outside Antenna Installation
The Outside Antenna should be mounted as shown in the
illustration above. The mounting bracket, included with Outside
Antenna, is adjustable and will accommodate pipe diameters
from 1.25” to 2” (pipe sold separately Part# 901117). Mount the
antenna so that there is at least 3 feet of clearance in all directions
around it. Position the antenna so that it has an unobstructed line
of sight to the cell tower’s strongest signal. Make sure the Outside
Antenna is not pointing across your own roof or at the Inside
Antenna as this will cause the oscillation protection circuitry to
shut down the Signal Booster.
Warning
Lightning protection is recommended for all installations (sold
separately) (Part #859902). Take extreme care to ensure that neither
you nor the antenna comes near any electric power lines.
Install the Lightning Surge
Protector (LSP) close to
the Signal Booster. Attach
the cable from the Outside
Antenna to the surge
protector, using a short
length of low loss cable;
attach one end to the LSP
and the other to the Outside
Antenna connector on the
Signal Booster. Attach a
ground wire (not included)
to the LSP. LSP may be
purchased at www.WilsonElectronics.com or 800-204-4104.

Mounting Tips for Running Outside
Antenna Cable
If you are mounting the Outside Antenna on the roof of your
building, we have found that it is easiest to run your cable
underneath the down side of your roof’s flashing. If you have
satellite TV service installed at your home or office, you may be
able to follow the same route as the satellite TV cables that are
already running from outside of your building to the inside. After
routing the cable, we recommend sealing any areas where the
cable passes into the building with silicone, cable bushings or
other waterproof sealant to keep your installation from leaking.
If you are mounting the Outside Antenna to the outside wall of
your home or building, the simplest way is to run the cable on
the outside of the wall and attach it to the exterior of your home
or office. Then drill a hole through the wall where you want the
cable to appear on the inside of the building. Before drilling, make
sure that there are no electrical outlets, sewer or water pipes, or
electrical wiring in the wall that you are about to drill through as
this could potentially harm you or damage the building.
After drilling the required hole, run the cable through and seal
it with silicone, cable bushings or other waterproof sealant to
enclose the hole that you have created. In some instances, it
Selecting a Direction for the Outside Antenna
Select a location on the roof of the building to install the Outside
Antenna. Use a cell phone in test mode to find the strongest signal
from the cell tower. See below for more information. To get the
strongest signal possible, it is very important to set up your Outside
Antenna properly. The Inside and the Outside Antenna must be
mounted in such a way that they are able to pick up the best possible
cell signal on the outside of the building and provide the best possible
signal on the inside of the building. Mount the Outside Antenna as
high as possible facing the cell tower in an area with the best possible
signal coverage. Note:
Never point the front of a directional antenna
toward the Inside Antenna. See Figures 1 & 2 on page 12.

may be possible to run the cable up into the fascia of the attic
overhang. In this circumstance, the cable will be accessible in the
attic for further routing.
Ceiling
Rafters
Inside
Antenna
In some cases, multiple Inside Antennas may be required, for
instance if you have multiple rooms with poor signal. A signal may
be split by using a splitter (sold separately). If using more than
one Inside Antenna, a separation of at least 20 feet is necessary
between Inside Antennas. See configuration on pages 3 & 4.
Warning: An Inside Antenna must have a separation distance
from all persons that is at least 8 inches.
Installing the Inside Antenna
Find the desired location for the Inside Antenna (Panel Antenna
option shown). Verify that the Inside Antenna and the Outside
Antenna have the necessary separation (Minimum of 20 vertical/
horizontal feet if installed with Signal Booster set at a lower
gain, for maximum gain you may need as much as 50 feet of
separation). For optimum results the antenna should be mounted
at least 6 feet off the ground.

Installing a Wilson Electronics Signal Booster
Select a location to install the Signal Booster that is away from
excessive heat, direct sunlight, moisture and that has proper
ventilation. Do not place the Signal Booster in an air-tight
enclosure. Recommended installation locations for in-building
Signal Boosters are near a power outlet and in a closet, or on
a shelf. Note: It is important to have adequate air ventilation.
Maintain at least 6 inches of clearance from surrounding objects.
Run the Outside Antenna cable to the Signal Booster and attach it
to the connector labeled “Outside Antenna” on the Signal Booster.
Run the Inside Antenna cable to the Signal Booster and attach it
to the connector labeled “Inside Antenna” on the Signal Booster.
Note:
For distances of 20 feet or more, use Wilson low loss cable
to prevent significant signal loss.
Note: Be careful when plugging
the connector in so as not to damage the center pins on the
connectors.
Powering up a Wilson Electronics
Signal Booster
1. Never point the front of a Directional Outside Antenna toward the
Inside Antenna. See Figures 1 & 2 on page 12.
2. Ensure that both the Outside Antenna cable and the Inside
Antenna cable are connected to the Signal Booster and the
connections are tight before powering up the Signal Booster.
3. Plug the power supply into the Signal Booster input marked “6V
DC” (carefully, to avoid damaging the center pin) and then into a
wall outlet.
4. If the Signal Booster does not have a green light please see
pages 13 & 14.
5. Using multiple Signal Boosters in one installation could cause
interference to the cell tower.

Antenna
When installing your Signal Booster’s Outside Antenna, aiming
it towards the best signal source from you service provider is
important. After you have completed the install, the best way
of getting the strongest signal is to have one person on the roof
to rotate the Outside Antenna, which is connected to the Signal
Booster. Turning the Outside Antenna about 45 degrees at a
time, while the second person is watching the signal strength on
the phone inside the building. This allows you to read the signal
strength from the cell tower. It is preferable to have the phone in
the test mode so the actual signal strength can be read, as bars
are not the most accurate. Go to www.WilsonElectronics.com for
help in finding the test mode for your phone. Always make sure
the person inside the building gives the signal time to arrive and
register on the phone. (Between 10-30 seconds for phone to reset
to the signal reading).
Signal readings usually appear as a negative
number (for example, -86). The closer you get to zero the stronger the
signal. (See graph below).

During installation mode the Signal Booster is resetting itself very
quickly to aid the installer. The Signal Booster is equipped with
one indicator light for the 700 MHz band and one for the power.
For the first 15 minutes that the Signal Booster is plugged in, it is
programed for a test and alignment period.
1. BLINKING GREEN
If the Signal Booster light is blinking green, the Signal Booster
is operating properly. If you are happy with the coverage area in
your building, then you are done. Blinking will stop after the 15
minute installation period.
2. BLINKING ORANGE
If the light on the Signal Booster is blinking orange, the Signal
Booster is experiencing receiver (cell tower) overload. The Signal
Booster has protection shut off circuits to prevent the disruption
of cell towers. If the light is blinking orange, this indicates that
gain should be reduced due to close proximity to a cell tower.
First, turn down the uplink (UL) gain control until you get a
blinking green light. Do not adjust the downlink (DL) knob at this
time. The Signal Booster is now working with reduced gain on
the uplink. If the gain is not adequate for good coverage, you
will need to turn the UL gain to maximum and then rotate the
Outside Antenna until the light turns to blinking green, waiting

5 seconds between each adjustment for the Signal Booster to
reset. If you do not get a green light, turn the UL gain down 5 dB
and rotate the Outside Antenna. Continue to adjust the UL gain
and the Outside Antenna position until the light turns blinking
green. If the UL gain was reduced and the light is green and you
have good signal strength but are unable to place a call, it may
be necessary to lower the DL gain control to the same setting as
the UL. This is because some cell systems require a balanced
gain between UL and DL for proper operation. Contact Wilson
Electronics Technical Support Team for assistance:
866-294-1660.
3. SOLID RED
If the light on the Signal Booster is solid red, this indicates that
the Signal Booster has shut down to prevent an oscillation
(feedback). First, make sure that all the connections are tight.
Then reduce the DL and the UL gain of the Signal Booster in 5
dB increments by rotating the gain control counter-clockwise,
waiting 5 seconds between each adjustment for the Signal
Booster to reset. Continue this adjustment until the light
turns blinking or solid green. When you are turning down the
DL gain, you are reducing the inside coverage area. If the
amount of coverage area is sufficient for your needs and the
light is green, the installation is complete. If the coverage area
is not large enough, it is necessary to increase the separation
distance of the Inside and Outside Antennas by moving them
horizontally and/or vertically farther apart. Then increase
the DL and UL gains until the red light comes on, and then
decrease the gains until the green or blinking green light
appears. If after separating the antennas your coverage area
is still too small, contact Wilson Electronics Technical Support
Team for assistance: 866-294-1660.
4. SOLID GREEN
The 700 MHz indicator light on the Signal Booster will be a solid
green after the first 15 minute installation period, if the unit is
powered up and working properly.

with separate uplink and
downlink gain controls. Note: All
gain controls should be set to
maximum. If you have a green
light, the installation is complete.
If the light is blinking
orange, the Signal Booster is
experiencing receiver overload.
Reduce the uplink (UL) gain
control, without reducing the
downlink (DL) gain to eliminate the
overload. This configuration will
eliminate cell tower interference
(overload) without reducing
coverage in the building.

Warnings and Recommendations
Warning: The Directional Antenna must always be located so
the back or side points to the Inside Antenna. Never
point the front of the Outside Antenna toward the
Inside Antenna – this is to prevent oscillation.
Warning: Connecting the Signal Booster directly to the cell
phone with use of an adapter will damage the cell
phone.
Warning: Use only the power supply provided. Use of a
non-Wilson Electronics product may damage your
equipment.
Warning: RF Safety: FCC rules limit radiated power of signal
boosters to 1 watt EiRP in the 1710-1750 MHz band.
In order to meet this requirement, the gain of any
Outside Antenna used with this booster must be
offset by coaxial cable loss such that antenna gain
less cable loss does not exceed 2 dBi. The Outside
Antenna must be located at least 8 inches from all
people and be installed no higher than 10 meters
(32’9”) above ground. The Inside Antenna gain less
cable loss may not exceed 13.2 dBi, and it must be
located at least 8 inches from all people.
Warning: Verify that both the Outside Antenna and the Inside
Antenna are connected to the Signal Booster before
powering up the Signal Booster.
Recommendation: Lightning Surge Protection is recommended
for all in-building installations.

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.
