1. Testing a Wilson Amplifier To test your amplifier go to a weak signal area where your cell phone registers only 1 2 bars without the amplifier turned on Then connect the amplifier to the phone and you should see a signal improvement of 2 or more bars Note many phones take up to 20 seconds to reset the bar indicator s com 1 877 594 5766 wpsantennas wpsantennas com Warnings and Recommendations A Warning Verify that both the outside antenna and the adapter extension cable are connected to the amplifier before powering up the amplifier A Warning RF Safety In vehicle The outside antenna must be installed with a separation of at least 20 inches from any of the vehicle s occupants or nearby persons and must not be located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or amplifier Use of a cellular amplifier with an antenna gain higher than 6 12 dBi is in violation of FCC regulations for which the offender is fully liable All Wilson mobile antennas are 6 12 dBi or less A Warning RF Safety In vehicle All roof mount antennas should be centrally located on the roof of the vehicle Glass mount antennas should be located in the middle of either the front or back windshield Mirror mount antennas should be at least six feet from the ground and at least 20 inches from any persons in or around the vehicle A Warning RF Safety In Building The outside antenna must be installed on an outdoor permanent structure with a separat2. e 6 extension cable Q Direct connection DC plug in power 6 extension amplifier supply cable Additional Equipment e Outside antenna for in vehicle or in building use required NOTE specifically tuned iDEN antennas available e Cell phone specific external antenna adapter required e AC DC power supply optional for in building use How it Works Wilson amplifiers are small portable 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 and in building applications When using a Wilson amplifier in conjunction with Wilson antennas the outside antenna will collect the cell tower signal and send it through the cable to the amplifier Cell phones and cellular data cards laptops then communicate with the improved signal When a cell phone or cellular data card transmits the signal is amplified by the amplifier and broadcast back to the cell tower through the outside antenna 1 877 594 5766 wpsantennas wpsantennas com Me To receive the best cell signal select a location in the center of the vehicle s roof at least 12 inches away from any other antennas and free of obstructions Installing a Wilson Outside Antenna Follow the specific antenna installation instructions included with the outside antenna sold separately The outside antenna must be installed vertically Signal
