Wilson Electronics manufactures a wide variety of antennas to help you customize your
Signal Booster for your specific application. Several authorized antennas are shown above.
See your dealer or visit www.WilsonElectronics.com.
How it Works
Your new Wilson Signal Booster has been carefully engineered to significantly improve the
performance of your cell phone and cellular data card in mobile applications. Together with
an Outside Antenna, the Signal Booster’s state-of-the-art technology is designed to increase
your signal more than 20 times, reduces dropped calls 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
Signal Booster. The signal is then boosted and sent to the Inside Antenna. Your cellular
device then communicates with the improved signal. When the cellular device transmits, the
signal goes through the Inside Antenna, is boosted by the Signal Booster and transmitted to
the cell tower through the Outside Antenna.
Before Getting Started
This guide will help you properly install your Wilson Electronics Dual-Band Mobile Wireless
Signal Booster. It is important to read through all of the installation steps for your
particular application prior to installing any equipment. Read through the instructions,
visualize where all the equipment will need to be installed and do a soft installation before
mounting any equipment. Contact Wilson Electronics Technical Support Team with any
questions at 866-294-1660.

Quick Installation Overview
Installation Diagram
Outside
Antenna
Distance between antennas
through a sunroof must be 5
feet or more.
Warning: In a
wireless installation,
do not plug the Signal
Booster directly into
the cell phone and/
or data card using
an antenna adapter.
It may damage the
Signal Booster, cell
phone and/or data
card.
Warning: Do not plug
in the DC power supply
until the Outside and
Inside Antenna cables
are attached to the
Signal Booster.

Installing the Outside Antenna
To receive the best cell signal, select a location in the center of the vehicle’s roof 12 inches
away from any other antennas or windows. If the vehicle has a sunroof, it is important to
separate the Inside and Outside Antennas by at least five feet. This prevents the Signal
Booster from overloading or oscillating. As shown above. Follow the specific antenna
installation instructions included with the Outside Antenna.
Magnet - Mount
Antenna Shown
Part #301103
Separation of the Inside and Outside Antennas is
very important. The metal roof of the vehicle acts as a
barrier and helps shield the two antennas from each
other, preventing oscillation (feedback).
The Outside Antenna must be installed vertically.
Signal performance will be degraded if the antenna is
not vertical.
Carefully
Pull Down
Door Seal
Run Cable
Under Seal
The antenna cable may run through the door to the
Signal Booster.
For a more professional looking installation, run the
antenna cable under the door seal. The antenna cable
is small enough to easily tuck under the door seal or
plastic molding. 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.
Warning: Do not use any type of glass-mount
antenna with this Signal Booster. The Outside
and Inside Antennas must be shielded from each
other to prevent oscillation (feedback).
Tuck Cable

Installing the Low-Profile Antenna
Signal Booster
Low-profile
Antenna
Warning: Do not install the low-profile
antenna within four inches of metal.
(Metal found inside the vehicle’s seat will
not affect the antenna’s performance.)
Warning: Do not plug in the DC power
supply until the Outside and Inside
Antenna cables are attached to the Signal
Booster.
Place the Low-Profile Antenna on the
side of the driver’s seat for maximum
performance.
Install the Low-Profile Antenna at least eight
inches, but not more than 12 inches, from
where the cellular device will be used.
Install the Low-Profile Antenna at the same
angle as the cell phone when held in use, or
place next to the laptop’s cellular data card.
This will maximize the signal strength.
For a more professional looking installation,
the Low-Profile Antenna may be slid under
the seat cover or upholstery, high on the
driver’s seat.
Warning: The Inside Antenna must be
installed with a separation of at least eight
inches from all persons and must not
be located in conjunction with any other
antenna or Signal Booster.
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.
Run the cable from the Outside Antenna and
attach it to the connector labeled “Outside
Antenna” on the Signal Booster.
Attach the Low-Profile Antenna cable to the
connector labeled “Inside Antenna” on the
Signal Booster.
NOTE: The aluminum casing of a Wilson Signal Booster will adjust very quickly to the
ambient temperature of its environment. For example, in the summer, when the inside
of a car can reach 140 degrees Fahrenheit, the Signal Booster temperature may be 150
degrees or higher. The casing will be hot to the touch, similar to a metal door handle or a
steering wheel. Such high temperatures will not damage the Signal Booster, nor do they
pose a fire risk to the vehicle. As recommended in these instructions, install the Signal
Booster in a location with adequate ventilation, such as under the seat or under the
dashboard. Keep the area free of items that could block air flow to the Signal Booster.

Or email: tech@wilsonelectronics.com Mon.- Fri. Hours: 7am to 6 pm MST.
Powering up a Wilson Electronics Signal Booster
Connect the power cable from the DC plug-in power
supply to the Signal Booster marked “6 V DC” and
insert the large end into DC power socket (the vehicle
power adapter outlet).
ON/OFF SWITCH
The Signal Booster may remain on all the
time. However, leaving the Signal Booster
on in a vehicle when it is not running can
discharge or drain the battery in a day or
two. Switch the power supply off when not
in use.
A good option is to power the Signal
Booster through the ignition switch so the
Signal Booster is turned on and off with the
vehicle.
IMPORTANT: Do not power up the Signal
Booster unless antenna cables are attached
to Signal Booster.
An available option to do this with is the
Hardwire Kit from Wilson Electronics.
Part# 859923.
Understanding the Signal Booster Lights
The power light will turn green when the
Signal Booster is successfully powered up.
When the 800 MHz or 1900 MHz lights are
lit green, the Signal Booster is amplifying
the outside signal.
All green lights
Red light on frequency indicator
If one or both frequency lights turn red,
oscillation is occurring and the Signal
Booster has powered down on the
frequency with the red light to prevent
oscillation. The Outside Antenna needs to
be moved farther from the Inside Antenna.
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.
Disconnect power from the Signal Booster
and reconnect power. This resets the
Signal Booster.
If the lights are now green, the Signal
Booster is working properly. If the red light
is still on, move the antenna farther away
and repeat the process.
Always use a magnet-mount or roofmount antenna. Do not use a glassmount antenna, as oscillation may cause
continuous shut-down of the Signal Booster.

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 for each doubling of the number of signals.
