Quick Installation

  1. Install Donor Antenna
    Mount your Donor Antenna on the exterior and towards the rear of your automobile or boat, depending on the design and type of vehicle. Make sure you consider the cable connection to the Main Unit with your location choice. Note: For best performance, ensure there is 50 cm of metal around the base of the antenna.

  2. Install the Server Antenna
    Install the Server Antenna in the cabin/deck towards the front of the vehicle where coverage is needed. Make sure to mount the Server Antenna horizontally.
    Note: The Donor Antenna should be separated/isolated as far away as possible from the Server Antenna, greater separation provides the best performance.
