Preface
This user manual describes design, installation, commissioning and maintenance
of Hiboost wide band consumer single and dual band boosters.
Please, read user manual carefully before installing and maintaining the boosters.
The information in this manual is subject to change without prior notice. Opinions
are welcomed about the manual improvement.
Note: This User Manual is about standard Huaptec consumer booster selection.
Other models can be obtained upon request.
Safety Warnings
Users must follow the principles stated below:
Booster should follow system requirements of mobile signal
enhancement equipment, assure good grounding and lightning
protection.
Booster’s power supply voltage should meet the standards of security
requirements; any operation should be carried out only after cutting off
power in advance. Only the professional is authorized for the
operation.
Do not dismantle machine, maintain or displace accessories by yourself.
In this way the equipment can be damaged and you can even get an
electric shock.
Do not open the booster, touch the module of booster, or open the
cover of module to touch the electronic component. The components
will be damaged due to electrostatic.
Keep away from heating equipment, because the booster will dissipate
heat during working. And do not cover booster with anything that
influences heat-dissipation.

Overview
Hiboost single and dual band consumer boosters are designed to help mobile
users to amplify weak cell phone signal.
The devices are bi-directional. The outdoor antenna receives the signal from the
cell tower and transmits it to the signal booster, the booster amplifies the signal
and the indoor antenna sends it to your mobile device. Visa versa, the signal
produced by your phone is also received by the indoor antenna, amplified by the
booster and then sent back to the cell tower through the outdoor antenna.

Features
Embedded CPU, self-adaptive intelligent system very easy to use and install,
better performance is guaranteed even under complicated and constantly
changing RF environment conditions.
ISO: Intelligent isolation processing to avoid self-oscillation, quite wide
adjusting range to stabilize the signal strength/quality for clearer voice/ higher
data speed and avoid interference with mobile networks.
ALC: Intelligent automatic level control, quite wide adjusting range to stabilize
the output power and improve the signal quality for clearer voice and higher
data download speed.
LCD Display: Displays ISO status, ALC status, actual gain and downlink output
power which makes booster installation and troubleshooting much easier.
MGC: Knobs to adjust the gain for both uplink and downlink independently,
31dB range.
Excellent RF performance, larger coverage area, clearer voice and higher
data download speeds.
Elegant design, compact size, very low power consumption to minimize cost
during operation and low heat dissipation.

LCD Introduction

LCD1/LCD2/LCD3: Display area of working frequency.
After the repeater is on, LCD1 and LCD3 will light all the time.
LCD 2 displays the working frequency. Find below the list of frequencies displayed
corresponding to the networks supported by the booster.
LCD4: ”ISO” isolation alarm indication.
When the repeater doesn’t have enough isolation
between the outdoor and indoor antennas, the
“ISO” is flashing. When isolation is enough, the “ISO”
is off.
LCD5:”Alc”strong receiving power alarm
indication.
When the repeater’s receiving too strong signal
from outside, output power gets overrated and
“Alc” starts flashing. When output power is
balanced, the “Alc” is off.
LCD6: Displays“-“ if the output power is negative,
LCD7: Gain or power indication.
The displayed value shows real-time gain and
power in turn. When repeater’s output power is
lower than-10dBm,LCD6 and LCD7 will display ”---”.
When LCD screen is in ”OFF” state and the repeater
shuts down, LCD screen will be flashing.
When LCD screen is ”ON” and the repeater shuts
down, LCD6 and LCD7 will display ”OFF” under the
current band.
