Coverage area 3,500 sq. ft.
The Manufacturer’s rated output power of this equipment is for single carrier operation. For
situations when multiple carrier signals are present, the rating would have to be reduced by 3.5 dB,
especially where the output signal is re-radiated and can cause interference to adjacent band users.
This power reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by an attenuator at
the output of the device.
This product is covered by patent US 7,706,744. Other U.S. and foreign patents pending.
zBoost Base Unit Light Indicators
During Initial Power Up
Light Mode Status Solution
Cycle RED,
GREEN,
ORANGE
System is
powering up.
Please allow up
to 30 seconds.
N/A
Flashing
GREEN
BASE UNIT will
fl ash GREEN
once for every
2 dB less than
optimal system
gain. Three
fl ashes or less
indicates the
system will still
operate properly.
1. Unplug the BASE UNIT power supply.
2. Relocate the EXTERNAL ANTENNA to pick up the
strongest signal from your wireless carrier.
3. Move the EXTERNAL ANTENNA as far away from the
INDOOR ANTENNA as possible, with at least 15 ft. of
vertical separation (height difference).
4. Plug the BASE UNIT power supply back in.
5. Wait 30 secs. for the BASE UNIT to power cycle on.

EXTERNAL
ANTENNA
and INDOOR
ANTENNA
are too close
together.
1. Unplug the BASE UNIT power supply.
2. Move the EXTERNAL ANTENNA as far away from the
INDOOR ANTENNA as possible, with at least 15 ft. of
vertical separation (height difference).
3. Plug the BASE UNIT power supply back in.
4. Wait 30 secs. for the BASE UNIT to power cycle on.
Solution #2
SOLID RED Signal from the
carrier’s cell
tower is too
strong for the
BASE UNIT to
operate properly.
1. Unplug the BASE UNIT power supply.
2. Relocate the EXTERNAL ANTENNA to another spot.
3. If you have a directional antenna re-aim it to reduce
carrier signal strength.
4. Plug the BASE UNIT power supply back in.
5. Wait 30 secs. for the BASE UNIT to power cycle on.
Solution #3
Flashing
RED
Excessive
electronic noise

the BASE UNIT
will not operate.
