PRO 10K SL ZBC745SL Manual

NOTE: The zBoost PRO 10K SL ZBC745SL requires at least 15 feet of vertical separation between

the Base Unit and the External Antenna. Generally, increasing this distance (up to 40 feet) will

increase the performance and decreasing the distance will limit zBoost performance. Keep the

Base Unit off the oor and at least 2 feet away from other cords, metal objects or other wireless

devices such as wireless routers or wireless access points. The zBoost performs best when there

are no obstructions between the zBoost Base Unit and your mobile device.

Upon initial power up, the LED will cycle RED, GREEN and ORANGE for 30 seconds. After 30

seconds, a series of GREEN ashes will indicate the quality of your setup. Following this, a solid

GREEN light indicates normal conditions. If it is not solid GREEN, follow the instructions in the

Base Unit LED Indicators section. Adjustments may be needed to optimize performance. If you nd

the increased signal coverage is acceptable, however, no additional adjustments are needed. See

“Base Unit Light Indicators” on page 11) for more information.

SECOND: Position Base and Indoor Antenna

The Base Unit can be easily mounted on a wall by rst removing the bracket from the Base Unit

and using the provided mounting hardware to afx to wall. Connect the Indoor Antenna to the 15

feet of RG-6. Then, using the TNC-F Adaptor, connect the RG-6 to the Base Unit. The Base Unit

should be a minimum distance of 4-5 feet off from the oor so there is clearance for the Indoor

Antenna extension.

The Indoor Antenna should be mounted on a wall facing the direction where increased coverage is

desired. Keep the Indoor Antenna off oor and at least 3 feet away from other cords, metal objects

or other wireless devices such as wireless routers or wireless access points. The zBoost performs

best when there are no obstructions between the Indoor Antenna and your mobile device.

The zBoost PRO 10K SL ZBC745SL requires at least 15 feet of vertical separation between the

Indoor Antenna and the External Antenna. Generally, increasing this distance (up to 40 feet) will

increase the performance and decreasing the distance will limit zBoost performance.

Wall Mounting the Base Unit

The Base Unit can also be easily mounted on a wall. The Base Unit should be a minimum distance

of 4-5 feet off from the oor so there is clearance for the Indoor Antenna extension.

Perform the following steps to mount the Base Unit on a wall:

1. Remove the mounting bracket from the Base Unit by slightly spreading the tabs on the

mounting bracket.

2. Fasten the mounting bracket to the wall using the self-tapping wall/ceiling anchors.

3. Snap the Base Unit into the mounting bracket.

THIRD: Run the Coaxial Cable

NOTE: Refrain from securing cable or drilling holes until the system has been tested.

Note

Avoid placing the External Antenna near metal such as

wiring, A/C ducts, metal siding, truss plates, etc.

When connecting the cable to the antenna, run the cable

straight down from the antenna. Avoid draping the coax

near the antenna.
