How It Works

Wilson’s Wide Band Log Periodic Directional Antenna will collect the cell tower signal and send it through the cable to an amplifi er, cell phone or cellular data card. When the cell phone or cellular data card transmits, the signal is transferred to an amplifi er or directly to the antenna and broadcast back to the cell tower.

Antenna Installation

The antenna should be mounted as shown in the illustration above. The included mounting bracket is adjustable and will accommodate pipe diameters from 1.25” to 2”

(pipe not included). Mount the antenna so that there is at least 3 feet of clearance in all directions around it. Position the antenna so that it has the most unobstructed line of sight to the cellular service provider’s strongest signal. If you are using a wireless amplifi er, make sure the antenna is not pointing across your own roof.

Warning: Lightning protection is recommended for all installations (Wilson Part

#859902). Take extreme care to ensure that neither you nor the antenna comes near any electric power lines.

Adjusting the Antenna for Maximum Performance

To adjust the antenna for best performance, connect it to your cell phone with an external adapter and a length of coaxial cable. External antenna adapters and coaxial cables are sold separately. Put the cell phone in test mode and turn the Antenna in 10-degree increments while checking the cell phone’s signal level. At each point you may need to wait a few seconds as your cell phone updates. To fi nd your phone’s test mode, visit www.wilsonelectronics.com. Signal readings usually appear as a negative number (for example, -86). The larger the number, the more powerful the signal (-75 is stronger than

-84).

Antenna Adapter

An 18-inch external adapter may be required to connect the cell phone or cellular data card directly to the antenna. The external adapter is cell phone/data card specifi c and may be purchased through a local retailer. Refer to Wilson’s Adapter Guide to identify the right adapter for your cell phone or cellular data card. The Adapter Guide is available through a local retailer. It is also available on our web site, www.wilsonelectronics.com, or you may call Technical Support at 866-294-1660.

Important: If you are using a wireless amplifi er, be sure the Antenna is not pointing across the building in which you are trying to get coverage. The antenna should point away from the building to help prevent oscillation (feedback).

Once you have obtained the strongest signal (see below), fully tighten the mounting hardware. After the amplifi er and the rest of the system is installed and performing correctly, weatherproof all connections.

Ultra low loss coax is recommended for lengths 20’ or greater to prevent signifi cant signal loss. Wilson offers WILSON 400 cable in several lengths from 20-100 feet. Wilson also offers a wide range of phone adapters to connect your cell phone to an amplifi er or directly to the antenna. To fi nd the adapter for your phone, visit www.wilsonelectronics.com or call toll free 866-294-1660.
