2. Package Contents

Verify that all items listed below are included in your package:

• 1 x Cell Phone Signal Booster
• 1 x Omni Antenna (Outdoor)

3. Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of your signal booster. Follow these steps carefully:

3.1. Find a Good Outdoor Signal Location

Before installing the outdoor antenna, identify a location on your roof or outside your building where the cellular signal is strongest. Use your mobile phone to check signal strength. A signal stronger than -80dB or at least 3 bars is recommended. Ensure there are no obstructions between the outdoor antenna and the nearest cell tower.

3.2. Install the Outdoor Antenna

Mount the omni antenna on a pole or mast in the chosen outdoor location. Ensure it is securely fastened using the provided installation accessories. The omni antenna receives signals from all directions. Connect one end of the 13-meter coaxial cable to the outdoor antenna and wrap the connection with waterproof tape to protect it from weather elements.

3.3. Install the Indoor Antenna

Choose a central location inside your home or office where you need improved signal. The indoor panel antenna should be mounted on a wall, facing the area where signal is desired. Ensure there is adequate separation between the outdoor and indoor antennas (at least 32 feet horizontal and 20 feet vertical) to prevent oscillation and maximize booster gain.

3.4. Connect the Booster

1. Route the coaxial cable from the outdoor antenna to the signal booster. Connect this cable to the port labeled "BTS" (Base Transceiver Station) on the booster.
2. Route the cable from the indoor antenna to the signal booster. Connect this cable to the port labeled "MS" (Mobile Station) on the booster.
3. Ensure all connections are hand-tightened.

3.5. Power On

Connect the power adapter to the booster and then plug it into a power outlet. The booster will power on, and the LCD screen will display signal strength information. Allow a few moments for the system to initialize.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1. How the Booster Works

The Confixpand signal booster operates by receiving weak cellular signals from the nearest cell tower via the outdoor antenna. These signals are then amplified by the booster unit and re-broadcasted indoors through the indoor antenna. This process creates a stronger, more reliable signal for your mobile devices.

4.2. Automatic Gain Control (AGC)

This cellular signal booster features an Automatic Gain Control function. It intelligently detects the existing signal strength and adjusts its performance to prevent interference with the carrier's network. The signal strength will be displayed on the booster's LCD for real-time monitoring.

4.3. Compatibility and Coverage

The booster supports 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and 5G networks on Band 2, 4/66, 5, 7, and 28. It can improve signal for 5-20 users and devices simultaneously, covering up to 5,000 sq. ft. This makes it suitable for homes, offices, basements, garages, and remote areas.

4.4. Checking Signal Band

To confirm your phone's signal band before or after installation, use the following methods:

• For iPhone: Dial *3001#12345#*, press call button, click "Serving Cell Info", then check "Band Info".
• For Android: Download the app "Network Cell Info Lite", choose "GAUGE", then click "BAND".

5. Maintenance

The Confixpand Cell Phone Signal Booster is designed for minimal maintenance. To ensure longevity and optimal performance:

• Keep the booster unit clean and free from dust. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning.
• Regularly inspect outdoor antenna connections for any signs of wear or weather damage. Re-wrap with waterproof tape if necessary.
• Ensure the power adapter is not damaged and is securely connected.
• Avoid placing the booster in areas with extreme temperatures or high humidity.
