1. PURPOSE OF THE DIRECT CONNECTION AMPLIFIER
The Direct Connection Bi-directional Amplifier improves RF coverage in areas
with no signal or low signal strength. Part# 811101 Amplifies the signal on
800MHz up to 3 watts and allows for the full benefit of the outside antenna on
1900MHz frequencies. Part# 814001 Amplifies the iDEN (Nextel) frequencies
up to 3 watts.
2. PACKAGE CONTENTS
2.1 Bi-directional Direct Connection Amplifier.
2.2 DC plug-in power supply with ON/OFF switch.
2.3 6ft. Adapter Extension Cable.
3. HOW THE DIRECT CONNECTION AMPLIFIER FUNCTIONS
When using 800 MHz the signal is received by the outside antenna from the cell site.
The signal is then AMPLIFIED and sent into your phone through the adapter (sold
separately). When the phone transmits, the signal is sent to the amplifier through the
adapter then AMPLIFIED and transmitted to the cell site through the outside antenna.
When using 1900MHz (PCS) the signal bypasses the amplifier’s circuitry while getting
full benefit from the outside antenna.
NOTE: Amplifier #814001 does not have a 1900MHz (PCS) bypass as iDEN
(Nextel) does not utilize this frequency.

4. AMPLIFIER INSTALLATION (see illustration on pg.4)
4.1 Installing the Wilson Cellular Antenna
4.1.1 See antenna packaging for model specific instructions.
WARNING: Verify that both the outside antenna and adapter extension cable are con-
nected before powering up the AMPLIFIER.
RF SAFETY WARNING: (MOBILE ONLY) The outside antenna must be mounted
with a separation distance of at least 15.5 inches from any of the vehicle
occupants or nearby persons and must not be co-located or operating
in conjunction with any other antenna or amplifier. Use of a cellular
amplifier with antenna gains higher than 5.12dBi is in violation of FCC
regulations for which the offender is fully liable. All Wilson Mobile
Antennas are 5.12dBi or less.
WARNING: (IN-BUILDING ONLY) Lightning protection is recommended for all in-build-
ing installations.
RF SAFETY WARNING: (IN-BUILDING ONLY) When using in-building, the outside
antenna must be fixed-mounted on an outdoor permanent structure with a
separation of at least 20 feet from all persons during normal operation.
4.2 Installing The Amplifier
4.2.1 Select a suitable location to mount the AMPLIFIER.
• In vehicle installation - under the dash or vehicle seat
• In building installation - on a wall or ceiling
NOTE: Mount the AMPLIFIER away from direct sunlight, excessive heat and/or mois-
ture. The amplifier needs proper ventilation. DO NOT place the amplifier in
an air-tight enclosure. Use #6 screws to mount the amplifier.
4.2.2 Connect the outside antenna to the AMPLIFIER side labeled “OUTSIDE
ANTENNA”.
4.2.3 Connect the ADAPTER EXTENSION CABLE to the AMPLIFIER side
labeled “CELLULAR PHONE”.
4.2.4 An external antenna adapter is required (sold separately) to connect the
AMPLIFIER to the cellphone. External antenna adapters connect directly to
the antenna extension cable.
4.2.5 Connect the DC power supply to the AMPLIFIER. Verify that both the
OUTSIDE ANTENNA and the ADAPTER EXTENSION CABLE are
connected before powering up the AMPLIFIER.
NOTE: Visit our website at www.wilsonelectronics.com for the latest adapter cross

EXTENSION CABLE CHART (RG 58 - FME connectors / 9913 - N connectors)
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.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.
Leaving the amplifier on in an unused vehicle for days may drain your battery. This can be avoided by
plugging into an ignition switched outlet or by using the small white switch located on the power supply.
