IMPORTANT NOTICE: Connect your eqo Booster
AC Power Supply to a surge protected AC power
strip with at least a 1000 Joule rating. Failure to do
this will void your warranty in the event of a power
surge or lightning strike.
This device may be operated ONLY in a fixed location for in-building
use. The signal booster unit is designed for use in an indoor,
temperature controlled environment ( > 150 degrees Fahrenheit)

Before you install your eqo signal booster, you must determine
the location of the best available cellular signal. This will help
you maximize performance from your eqo booster.
Use any of the following methods to find the strongest signal in
the room where the booster will be installed.
(FIND THE STRONGEST CELLULAR SIGNAL cont.)

WITH 2 PEOPLE - one inside and one outside. The
person inside should have the phone in test mode so
the numerical signal strength can be read. This is
more accurate than the bar indicator. For help in
finding the test mode for your phone please go to:
Place calls from several locations outside your
building. As you move to dierent locations, note
where you get the best reception.
Check the bar indicator on your cell phone display and
note where the signal appears the strongest. Repeat
your signal check several times, moving each time to a
dierent location. Remember each time you move to a
new location, your phone may require up to 30
seconds to reset and display the new reading.
For additional instructions on finding the strongest cellular
signal, watch the installation video at: weboost.com/us/eqovideo.

Place the Antenna where you need to
boost your signal, at least 6 feet away
from the Booster. The Antenna can be
mounted on the wall.
Place your Booster in the area with the
strongest cell phone signal, as identified
on the previous page. The LED light
should be facing into the room.

Specifications
CELL PHONE SIGNAL BOOSTER
6
CELL PHONE SIGNAL BOOSTER 7
Each Signal Booster is individually tested and factory set to ensure FCC compliance. The Signal Booster
cannot be adjusted without factory reprogramming or disabling the hardware. The Signal Booster will
amplify, but not alter incoming and outgoing signals in order to increase coverage of authorized
frequency bands only. If the Signal Booster is not in use for five minutes, it will reduce gain until a signal
is detected.
If a detected signal is too high in a frequency band, or if the Signal Booster detects an oscillation, the
Signal Booser will automatically reduce the gain on that specific band.
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.
