Installing a Wilson Outside Antenna in a Building
Follow the specifi c antenna instructions included with the outside antenna (sold separately
except for certain kits). These instructions assume that you are using a Wilson magnet-mount
or mini magnet-mount antenna and the optional suction-cup window bracket.
To receive the best signal, select a window on the side of your building where your outside
signal is the strongest.
Attach the suction-cup bracket to the inside
of a window so that the cable will reach
the amplifi er location. Place the bracket as
high on the window as possible for best
performance.
Once the bracket is in place, attach the
magnet base of the antenna to the fl at
surface of the bracket. Note: the antenna
must be installed vertically. Signal
performance will be degraded if the
antenna is not vertical.
Warning: The outside antenna must
have a separation of at least 8 inches from all
persons during normal operation.

The Wilson MobilePro
™
Amplifi er may be
placed in any convenient indoor location,
such as a desk or tabletop. The closer the
cell phone or laptop data card is to the
amplifi er (with its built-in inside antenna),
the better will be its performance.
Attaching the Antenna
Once you have selected the location for
the amplifi er, run the cable from the outside
antenna and attach it to the SMA connector
labeled “antenna” on the amplifi er. Note:
the amplifi er and the outside antenna must
have a minimum separation of 8 feet to
prevent oscillation.
