Warnings and Recommendations
 Warning: 
The Yagi antenna must always be located so the back or side points 
to the inside antenna. Never point the front of the Yagi antenna toward 
the inside antenna – oscillation will result, causing amber light and gain 
reduction.
 Warning: 
The outside antenna must be installed on an outdoor permanent structure 
with a separation of at least 20 feet from all persons during normal 
operation.
 Warning: 
Connecting the amplifi er directly to the cell phone with use of an adapter 
will damage the cell phone.
 Warning: 
Connect both the outside and inside antenna cables to the amplifi er 
before powering up the amplifi er.
 Warning: 
Use only the power supply provided in this package. Use of a non-
Wilson product may damage your equipment.
 Warning: 
RF Safety:  FCC regulations require that any antenna (inside or outside) 
used with this amplifi er may not have gain that exceeds 15 dBi. All 
Wilson Antennas meet this requirement. Inside antennas must have at 
least 8 inches of separation from all persons. Outside antennas must be 
farther than 39 inches from all persons.
Lightning protection is recommended for all in-building installations.
Finding Signal Strength and Calculating Coverage Distance
Signal strength and the corresponding coverage distance you can expect to achieve 
with your amplifi er/antenna system are based on a combination of several factors: 
the received signal strength of your cell phone alone, the signal gain achieved by 
your amplifi er and antennas and the signal loss from cables, taps and splitters you 
may be using.
To calculate your approximate signal coverage distance, you can enter this 
information into our Coverage Area Calculator on the Technical Support page on our 
website (www.wilsonelectronics.com). If you prefer, you can manually calculate your 
approximate signal coverage distance.
First, measure the Outside Signal Level (OSL) at the intended outside antenna 
location using a cell phone in test mode. (For assistance, visit the Phone Test 
Modes section on the Technical Support page on our website or call 866-294-1660.) 
The OSL will always be a negative number. (Even if the cell phone shows a positive 
number, you will need to change it to a negative for this calculation.) Maximum 
signal strength is usually about -50. When the signal weakens to about -100 or 
worse, the call may be dropped.
Your inside and outside antennas will also add signal gain, again depending on 
the antenna models you are using. You will also experience some signal loss from 
cables, splitters and taps used to connect your system.
