Fusion 5S 2.
Introduction INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing SureCall’s Fusion5s 2.0 cellular signal booster kit. Fusion5s 2.0 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 10,000 square feet. The Fusion5s provides enhanced cellular signals for multi-carrier voice and data reception.
How it works HOW IT WORKS SureCall’s Fusion5s 2.0 is a high-quality bidirectional signal booster that enhances cellular signals to areas that are prone to weak cellular coverage. Fusion5s 2.0 works with two types of antennas: An inside antenna that communicates with your cell phone and an outside antenna that communicates with the cell tower. 1. One outside antenna is used to collect signal from the cell tower. 2. The antenna then sends the signal to the booster through coax cable. 3.

Before Installation BEFORE INSTALLATION • Prior to securing the location of any booster parts, a “soft install” is recommended as adjustments may be needed to optimize performance. • Make sure you have sufficient separation between outdoor antenna and indoor antennas. At least 50 ft. is recommended for best performance. • Ensure sufficient cable length between the outside antenna location and booster location. The length of the provided cable is 75 ft.
Installation INSTALLATION Step 1. Find the area with the Strongest Signal Using your phone, identify the outside location with the strongest signal for placement of your outside antenna. Generally, this is found above the roofline on the side facing your nearest cell tower and as high as possible – where the antenna can ‘see’ your cell tower. To find the location of your carrier’s closest cell tower, go to www.antennasearch.com.
Installation Step 2. Install the Outdoor Antenna After identifying the area of strongest signal, choose the surface where you will mount your outside antenna. The location should allow for sufficient separation between the outside antenna and inside antennas. The minimum separating distance recommended for this booster is 50 Ft. Vertical separation is preferred as it is more effective than horizontal separation. See “Antenna Separation” on page 7.
Installation To mount antenna to a vertical surface: 1. Using vertical plate of L-bracket, mark position of desired placement. 2. Place vertical L-bracket into desired location and tap the screws, head first, along with sleeve, into stucco 1/2 to 5/8 inches deep into place. (Note: Alternate screws may be required for different surfaces such as wood or concrete.) 3. In this order, place washer, lock washer and nut on each screw and tighten until secure.
Installation Option B: Outdoor Yagi Antenna Before installing a Yagi directional antenna, note that the antenna should be mounted on a pole or pipe (not provided), at the highest possible location above the roofline where the antenna can “see” your cell tower. The antenna is mounted horizontally and aimed in the direction of your nearest cell tower. The location of your carrier’s closest cell tower may be identified using www.antennasearch.com.
Installation Step 3. Install Indoor Antenna(s) Indoor antennas may be either omni-directional ceiling mount or directional panel antennas. One indoor cable is provided per antenna. For kits with multiple antennas, a cable splitter and joining cable is also supplied. It is highly recommended that you complete test the placement of your system before a securing the permanent installation for each part. • For indoor dome antennas, mount on a ceiling in a central location where signal is needed.
Installation Option A: Indoor Dome Antenna(s) The SC-222W wideband antenna is an omni-directional interior antenna that sends and returns signals from all sides. 1. Drill a 20 mm diameter hole in the ceiling. The ceiling thickness should not exceed 20 mm. CONNECTOR PLASTIC NUT CEILING 2. Unscrew fixing nut from antenna. Place antenna cable through ceiling hole. THREADED MOUNT 3.
Installation Step 4. Install the Signal Booster 1. Select a location close to a working AC outlet. Do not expose the signal booster to excessive heat, direct sunlight, moisture, and airtight enclosures. If you’d like to mount the booster to a wall, mark location of screw tabs on the wall in the desired location. 2. Use supplied or appropriate screws for surface of mounting location and drill through screw tab holes on booster. 3.
LED Indicators LED INDICATORS Please note the following information: • Only the presence of red or RED-yellow LEDs indicate the presence of an unresolved issue. • Your booster switches should always be at maximum level unless the control light for a specific frequency band is flashing red or red-yellow. In either case, only reduce gain if other recommended actions do not resolve the issue. LED Information Color LED Resolution Green Solid Indicates that the frequency band is in use.
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. Increase the distance between the outside and inside antennas. 3. Be sure your signal booster’s dB gain is turned up to maximum gain on each dial. Remember, Bars are not always a reliable measure of signal. The best way to confirm signal coverage is the ability to place and hold a call.
