How does a signal booster work?

The outside antenna takes weak signal from a cellular tower and sends it to the booster through the outside cable. The booster will filter and amplify the signal, then the inside antenna broadcasts the boosted signal inside of the vehicle to improve the user’s cellular signal. The signal booster will help strengthen the weak communication between the cell tower and the user’s cellular device.

Getting Started Installation Overview

Before Final Installation:

1. Select a location for the signal booster away from direct sunlight, heat, water and make sure it has proper ventilation. Do NOT install in a sealed enclosure.

2. Before powering up the Signal Booster, verify that both the Outside An-tenna and the Inside Antenna are connected and check that all connec-tions are finger tight. Note: Be careful when plugging the connectors in so as not to bend the center pins on the connectors.

3. Power the unit on, and check the indicator lights. Under normal func-tion, all lights should be green. If lights do not show green, adjust the location of your outside and inside antennas, or contact your Dealer or Top Signal at 855-357-5500 and ask for technical support.

Unpacking & Inspection:

Take the components out of the box it was shipped in and perform a soft installation. This will allow you to determine the correct locations for the booster, outside donor antenna, inside antenna and cable pathways be-fore anything is permanently mounted.

Inspect all parts and components for damage.

Warnings and Recommendations:

WARNING: RF Safety: Any antenna used with this device must be located at least 8 inches away from any person.

CAUTION: Do not connect a mobile phone or mobile data device directly to the booster with a cable. Damage to the phone, device or booster may result.

CAUTION: Use only the approved manufacturer power supply with this booster. Other power supplies may cause damage to the booster.

CAUTION: Verify that both the Outside Antenna and Inside Antenna are connected to the signal booster before powering it up.

When is a mobile signal booster needed?

TURN-ON PROCEDURE:

When in a moving vehicle, the cellular device may experience weak or intermittent cellular phone and data service. This can translate into call failure, or inability to connect to the cellular data network. When this occurs, it is generally due to one of two reasons:

1. Location of the nearest cell tower – cell towers are situated to provide broad coverage; however, there are many areas in which signal strength may be reduced by topographic features or by local government restrictions on the height or placement of the towers themselves. Rural areas generally have fewer cell towers than urban regions.

2. Natural and man-made obstructions – signal strength can also be negatively affected by trees, hills, buildings, weather, and other ob-structions. You may be relatively close to a cell tower but still unable to make a call.

OverviewAmplifier Diagram: In the event of a shut down, re-aligning or moving the indoor and/or outdoor antennas may solve the problem.

Booster Overview and Adjustment:

1. Outside Connection Port - This is the outside antenna connection for the coax cable connected to the outside donor antenna.

2. Inside Connection Port - This is the inside antenna connection for the coax cable connected to inside antenna(s).

3. Indicator/Alarm Lights - These lights will indicate if the booster is func-tioning correctly. A blinking green light indicates that the antennas are too close together or that the booster is experiencing too strong of a signal from outside.

4. The Power light (near the power plug) indicates that the power is turned on.
