Fusion4Home ™ 2G/3G & 4G Home Signal Booster Kit User Guide
Table of Contents Thank you for purchasing SureCall’s Fusion4Home cellular signal booster kit. Fusion4Home was specifically designed to eliminate frustrations over dropped calls, limited range and slow data rates by amplifying incoming and outgoing cellular signals in homes up to 2,000 square feet. The Fusion4Home provides enhanced cellular signals for multi-carrier 2G, 3G and 4G voice and data reception.
How It Works SureCall’s Fusion4Home is a high-quality bidirectional signal booster that enhances cellular signals to areas that are prone to weak cellular coverage. Fusion4Home works with two antennas: • An inside antenna that communicates with your cell phone. • An outside antenna that communicates with the cell tower. Signals sent from a cell tower are received by the outside antenna, amplified by the booster and then sent to your phone via the inside antenna.
Package Contents 1. Unpack all package contents. For missing or damaged items, contact your reseller. 2. Turn over the signal booster and record the model and serial number for reference: Serial #: Purchase Date: 3. Keep the carton and packing material to store the product in case you need to return it.
Package Contents Note: Fusion4Home is available in three kits that are customized to your particular needs.
Before You Install 1. Ensure that you have positioned the booster close enough to an existing electrical outlet. 2. Ensure that there is sufficient cable length between proposed outside antenna location and booster connector. 3. Ensure that you have sufficient cable length between proposed inside antenna location and booster connector. Additional cable may be purchased from your dealer, if needed. Installation Overview Step 1. Find the outside area that has the strongest signal.
Installing Your Hardware Step 1. Find the area with the Strongest Signal Before installing the outside antenna, find the area with a strong cellular signal source from your service provider by following the directions below. Measure the strength of the existing cellular signal in various locations. • Apple iPhones: Dial *3001#12345#* and press Call. In the top-left corner, a dB number appears instead of bars.
Installing Your Hardware Step 2. Install the Outside Antenna 1. Outside omni antennas receive and send signals in a 360º radius. Yagi, or directional antennas work best when facing the direction of cellular phone towers. Mount the outside antenna as high as possible. If you are installing a Yagi antenna, mount it facing the nearest cellular tower being used by your carrier in the area where you located the best signal source (see step 1 on the previous page). 2.
Installing Your Hardware Installing the Yagi Antenna: Step 1: Install U-Bolt on pole Step 2: Slide pipe clamp over U-Bolt with the flat side facing away from the pipe. Step 3: Slide antenna bracket onto U-Bolt in desired location. Step 4: Install flat washer, split washer and nut, hand tighten Note: Antenna may be installed on a variety of pipe angles, ensure that the antenna is pointing in the direction of the closest cellular tower and is vertical with the drip hole at the bottom.
Installing Your Hardware Installing the Panel Antenna: Connect the antenna by firmly screwing it onto the inside port of the Fusion4Home Booster. For best results, the antenna should be mounted in an upright position. The right angle antenna connects directly to the amplifier port labeled “Inside”. Step 1. Choose a location for mounting the antenna on vertical surface. Ideal height off the ground or floor should be the approximate height of your cell phone when in use. Step 2.
Installing your Hardware 4. Connect the outside antenna cable to the signal booster connector marked OUTSIDE. Hand-tighten the connection. 5. Connect the inside antenna cable to the signal booster connector marked INSIDE. Hand-tighten the connection. 6. Connect the AC power cord to the signal booster. 7. Connect the plug on the other end of the 110V AC power outlet. 8. Turn the booster’s power switch on. Booster Hardware The following image shows the key hardware components on the booster.
Installing Your Hardware Step 5. Configure Gain Settings The SureCall gain dials should always be at maximum level unless the control light in a specific band is flashing red or flashing red-yellow. In either of these cases, the first action should be to increase the antenna isolation between the inside and outside antenna as much as possible and restart the booster.
Troubleshooting In the event you encounter a problem, follow the suggestions below to resolve the issue. Troubleshooting Problem Resolution Signal booster has no Verify that the switch on the power supply is turned on and red LED is ON. power Connect the power supply to an alternate power source. Be sure the power source is not controlled by a switch that can remove power from the outlet. Check the green POWER LED on the signal booster. If it is OFF, return the power supply to SureCall.
Specifications If you Want to Improve Coverage 1. Find a location that receives a stronger signal and relocate the outside antenna to that location. 2. Optimize the Yagi antenna angle. 3. Increase the distance between the outside antenna and booster. 4. S et each dial on the booster to maximum gain. WARNING: Do not attenuate the uplink and downlink dB settings below 35dB. This could cause the affected frequency band to shut down.

Warranty La puissance de sortie nominale indiquée par le fabricant pour cet appareil concerne son fonctionnement avec porteuse unique. Pour des appareils avec porteuses multiples, on doit réduire la valeur nominale de 3,5 dB, surtout si le signal de sortie est retransmis et qu’il peut causer du brouillage aux utilisateurs de bandes adjacentes. Une telle réduction doit porter sur la puissance d’entrée ou sur le gain, et ne doit pas se faire au moyen d’un atténuateur raccordé à la sortie du dispositif.
