Step 2-A: Point Outside
Antenna Toward Nearest
Cell Tower
Point the Outside Antenna toward the nearest cell phone tower. To find the
nearest tower, use an app such as ‘Open Signal’. After locating a cell tower’s
aproximate locationThis is the most critical step of the installation process
because it will determine the overall performance of the booster system.
Cell Tower
Outside Antenna
NOTE: The Outside Antenna must be at least
20 feet horizontal or 50 feet vertical from the Inside
Antenna for best performance. Make sure the Inside
Antenna and Outside Antennas are setup so they are
facing away from each other.

Pole Mounting and Wall Mounting Options are included. The pole mounting
option is preferred because it would be easier to adjust to the direction
of the cell tower.
Attach the L-Bracket to the Outside Antenna and use the U-Bolts/Pole
Bracket to attach the L-Bracket to a pole.
NOTE: Mounting on existing roof exhaust pipe would
be a good time-saver option.

Having an accurate measurement of signal strength in decibels (dBm) is crucial when
installing your system. Decibels accurately measure the signal strength you are receiving.
DID YOU KNOW a signal increase of just 3dB is 2
times the power and signal amplification!

Light Patterns
Solid Green
This indicates that your booster is
functioning properly and there are no
issues with installation.
Blinking Green, Then Red
Band has reduced gain. This indicates that one or more of the booster bands has reduced
power due to a feedback loop condition called oscillation. This is a built in safety feature
to prevent harmful interference with a nearby cell tower. If you are already experiencing
the desired signal boost, then no further adjustments are necessary. If you are not
experiencing the desired boost in coverage then refer to the Troubleshooting section.
Solid Red
Band has shutoff. This is due to a feedback loop condition called oscillation.
This is a built in safety feature that causes a band to shut off to prevent harmful
interference with a nearby cell tower. Refer to Troubleshooting section.
Blinking Green, Orange
Band has reduced gain. This indicates that one or more of the booster bands has reduced
power due to overload from nearby cell tower. This is a built in safety feature to
prevent harmful interference with a nearby cell tower. If you are already experiencing
the desired signal boost, then no further adjustments are necessary. If you are not
experiencing the desired boost in coverage then refer to the Troubleshooting section.
Solid Orange
Band has shutoff due to overload from nearby cell tower. Outside Antenna must be
adjusted. Refer to Troubleshooting section.

Verify Outside Antenna faces away from the Inside Antenna. Un-plug and re-
plug in power supply.
Verify the Inside Antenna is at least 18” from the Booster and pointed away
from the Booster. Unplug and re-plug in power supply.
Tighten all cable connections (be sure to handtighten only, do NOT use tools).
You may want to undo and redo the connection completely. Unplug and re-
plug in power supply.
Increase the distance (horizontally or vertically) between the Outside and
Inside antenna. Add included cable if needed. Un-plug and re-plug in
power supply.
Outside Antenna must be adjusted. Wait 10 seconds between adjustments for
the lights to reset.

Pole Mount Option: Rotate the Outside Antenna away from the strongest
cellular signal in small increments (45°) until the light turns green. Unplug
and re-plug in power supply.
Wall Mount Option: Change mount location. Move the Outside Antenna
to a wall outside the building to see if the lights turn green. Un-plug and
re-plug in power supply.
