Setup overview:

The Package includes everything you need: amplifier base unit and base unit antenna, signal antenna, power supply and RG-59 coaxial cable. The omni-directional signal antenna receives signals from multiple towers.

FIRST: Determine the Needed Coverage Area

Identify the location in your home/office where you need signal coverage the most. The zBoost® YX520-I can cover approximately 2500 sq ft (coverage varies based on outdoor signal level, building construction, and placement of antennas). Walls, ceilings or floors will reduce the coverage area.

SECOND: Determine the Location of Signal Antenna

To capture the best signal, place the Signal Antenna as high as possible and position it vertically, keeping it at it at least 2 feet away from any metal. The location of the Signal Antenna should be at least 15 feet higher than the Base Unit Antenna. If this is not possible, maximizing the horizontal separation between the 2 antennas is advised.

Choose 1 of the following 3 options for placement of the Signal Antenna:

Choosing the best location for the Signal Antenna provides the best performance and the largest area of improved signal. Determine the location that provides the strongest signal using the signal strength indicator on your cell phone. Find the location that provides the most bars of signal strength and place the Signal Antenna at or near that location. Avoid placing the Signal 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.

THIRD: Mount Base Unit and connect cables

You may need to adjust the position of the Base Unit or the Signal Antenna depending on the length of your cable. Ensure that there is adequate distance between the Base Unit and the Signal Antenna (at least 15 feet). Check the signal strength on your cell phone before plugging in the Base Unit’s power cord. Then, turn off your cell phone and plug in the Base Unit’s power cord. Turn your cell phone back on and check the signal strength. If the signal strength has improved, your zBoost is working.

zBoost® Base Unit Light Indicators

Upon initial power-up of your zBoost®, all lights may flash for approximately 5 seconds. This is a normal condition at power-up.
