CHAPTER 3: Planning
3.1 - Overview
The general booster installation process follows these steps:
1. Decide where to mount the exterior antenna. This will generally be on the wall or roof of the building in
the location with the strongest signal. You will need to decide whether to use an omnidirectional antenna
mounted vertically or a directional Yagi antenna pointed directly at the cellular tower (line of sight). You
must also consider attaching a grounded lightning protector between the exterior antenna and the
booster.
2. Decide where to mount the interior antenna(s), being sure to take separation requirements into account.
In general, long narrow spaces will benet most from directional at-panel antennas while more square
spaces will benet more from omnidirectional dome antennas.
3. Decide where to mount the booster. This should be in a secure indoor location near a grounded power
source.
4. Decide where to route the cables between the exterior antenna and the booster and between the
booster and interior antennas.
5. Install the antennas as described in their respective Installation Manuals.
6. Route the cables to the booster location.
7. Install the booster as described in this manual.
8. Power on the booster and perform the conguration and testing as described in this manual.
