Before Getting Started
This guide will help you properly install Wilson’s direct connection ampliers in both in-
vehicle and in-building applications. It is important to read through all of the installation
steps for your particular application prior to installing any equipment. Read through
the instructions, visualize where all the equipment will need to be installed and do a soft
installation before mounting any equipment. If you do not understand the instructions in
full, seek professional help, or contact Wilson Technical Support at 866-294-1660.

How it Works
Wilson ampliers are small, portable, bi-directional devices that deliver service levels
consistent with what would be expected in areas of high cell network coverage. They
amplify a weak or shadowed signal in mobile, marine and in-building applications.
When using a Wilson amplier in conjunction with Wilson antennas, the outside antenna
will collect the cell tower signal and send it through the cable to the amplier. Cell phones
and cellular data cards (laptops) then communicate with the improved signal. When a cell
phone or cellular data card transmits, the signal is amplied by the amplier and broadcast
back to the cell tower through the outside antenna.
