Fusion5S ™ 3G - 4G Home Five-Band Signal Booster Kit User Guide
Table of Contents Thank you for purchasing SureCall’s Fusion5s cellular signal booster kit. Fusion5s was specifically designed to eliminate frustrations over dropped calls, limited range and slow data rates by amplifying incoming and outgoing cellular signals in homes up to 6,000 square feet. The Fusion5s provides enhanced cellular signals for multi-carrier 2G, 3G and 4G voice and data reception.
How It Works SureCall’s Fusion5s is a high-quality bidirectional signal booster that enhances cellular signals to areas that are prone to weak cellular coverage. Fusion5s works with two antennas: • An inside antenna that communicates with your cell phone. • An outside antenna that communicates with the cell tower. Signals sent from a cell tower are received by the outside antenna, amplified by the booster and then sent to your phone via the inside antenna.
Package Contents 1. Unpack all package contents. For missing or damaged items, contact your reseller. 2. Turn over the signal booster and record the model and serial number for reference: Serial #: Purchase Date: 3. Keep the carton and packing material to store the product in case you need to return it.
Package Contents Note: Fusion5s is available in four kits that are customized to your particular needs.
Before You Install Step 1. Make sure you have positioned the booster close enough to an existing electrical outlet. Step 2. Make sure you have sufficient cable length between proposed outside antenna location and booster connector. Step 3 Make sure you have sufficient cable length between proposed inside antenna location and booster connector. Additional cable may be purchased from your dealer, if needed. Installation Overview Step 1. Find the outside area that has the strongest signal.
Installing Your Hardware Step 1. Find the area with the Strongest Signal The signal booster requires a minimum cellular signal of low –100 dBm. Signal readings usually appear as a negative number (for example, -85). The more bars you get, the closer the dB gets to zero. Aim for a signal close to -50dB. Signals stronger than -50dB may cause the booster to shut down (see the graph below).
Installing Your Hardware Step 2. Install the Outside Antenna 1. Outside omni antennas receive and send signals in a 360º radius. Yagi, or directional antennas work best when facing the direction of cellular phone towers. Mount the outside antenna as high as possible. If you are installing a Yagi antenna set it up facing the cellular tower in the area where you located the best signal source (see step 1 on the previous page). 2.
Installing Your Hardware Fusion5’s omni antennas come with equipment for mounting on a vertical wall. For best results the antenna should be mounted in an upright position. Step 1: Unscrew antenna from L-mounting bracket on antenna base with hands, or wrench, if needed. Step 2: Using vertical plate of bracket, mark position of desired placement with pencil or marker. Step 3: Unscrew nut on end of stucco screw and remove it along with lock washer and regular washer.
Installing Your Hardware Step 3. Install the Inside Antenna Inside antennas come in omni-directional (dome) and flat panel versions. Antenna Separation Table Required Between Outside and Inside Antenna Amplifier gain n atio par e s a enn ant Min. separation (ad) 40dB 5-6’ 45dB 15-20’ 50dB 50’ 55dB 60’ 65dB 75-80’ 72dB 100’-110’ Note: As you can see from the table above, acquiring the recommended inside and outside antenna separation optimizes coverage significantly.
Installing Your Hardware The SC-222W multi-band plastic antenna is an omni-directional interior antenna that gathers signals from all sides. Range of antenna is dependent on three factors: 1) physical obstructions, 2) power generated by booster and 3) reception from outside signal received and distributed by outside antenna. Besides the antenna itself, parts include mounting equipment for either a flat horizontal surface or a wall. It should be mounted in an upright position for best results.
Installing Your Hardware Step 4. Install the Signal Booster 1. Select a location close to a working AC outlet. Do not expose the signal booster to excessive heat, direct sunlight, moisture, and airtight enclosures. 2. If you’d like to mount the booster to a wall, mark location of screw tabs on the wall in the desired location 3. Use supplied screws or appropriate screws for surface of mounting location and drill through screw tab holes on booster. 4.

Note: If the Power LED does not turn ON or the Alert LEDs continue to flash, (see PAGES 15-16).This booster is rated for 5-20V input voltage.
Installing Your Hardware Step 5. Configure Gain Settings 1. Find the PCS, Cellular, LTE-A, LTE-V and AWS dials on top of the signal booster. 2. Set the dials according to the coverage area and the distance between the indoor and outdoor antennas (see below).

Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Problem Resolution Signal booster has no power Verify that the switch on the power supply is turned on and red LED is ON. Connect the power supply to an alternate power source. Be sure the power source is not controlled by a switch that can remove power from the outlet. Check the green POWER LED on the signal booster. If it is OFF, return the power supply to SureCall. Contact tech support at to receive an RMA at: 1-888-365-6283 or support@surecall.com, or go to www.

Warranty La puissance de sortie nominale indiquée par le fabricant pour cet appareil concerne son fonctionnement avec porteuse unique. Pour des appareils avec porteuses multiples, on doit réduire la valeur nominale de 3,5 dB, surtout si le signal de sortie est retransmis et qu’il peut causer du brouillage aux utilisateurs de bandes adjacentes. Une telle réduction doit porter sur la puissance d’entrée ou sur le gain, et ne doit pas se faire au moyen d’un atténuateur raccordé à la sortie du dispositif.
