Office 200 Cell Signal Booster
Owner’s Manual

Office 200
Cell Signal Booster

Package Contents

Office 200 50 Ohm Kit

Office 200 75 Ohm Kit

Key Features

Extended Dynamic Range (XDR) for continuous connectivity:
XDR lets the Office 200 system work with any incoming signal and never shuts down due to a strong outside signal.
Simple Wall-Mount Installation: An indoor and outdoor port is located on top of the amplifier for easy antenna connections, while an exposed mounting flange at each corner of the amplifier provides for simple and clean wall mount installation.
Onboard Software for Better Control: The amplifier is automatically controlled with automatic onboard software, ensuring great connectivity throughout large spaces and multi-story buildings. The amplifier will adjust its gain level up or down as required by the conditions of the immediate signal environment.
Color LCD Touch Screen: The Office 200 utilizes a color LCD touch screen for assessing amplifier performance, making adjustments to the outside antenna, and turning bands on and off.

Preparation

You Will Need (tools not included)
Make sure the following materials are prepared and ready for your installation.
1 to 2 hours

Ladder
Drill
1″ – 2″ diameter existing pole for mounting Outside Antenna (#901117 Pole Mount can be purchased separately if needed)
Recommended: Power Strip with surge protection

Installation Diagram

Step 1: Inside Antenna & Booster Placement
Place the inside antenna in the ceiling over where you need the greatest signal boost and place the booster in your desired location at least 24″ away from inside antenna.
NOTE: Do not connect the booster to power until the system is fully installed.
Step 2: Mount Outside Antenna
Pole mounting and wall mounting options are included.
Attach the mount to the outside antenna and use the bracket clamp to attach the antenna to a pole or exhaust pipe.
NOTE: Mounting on the existing roof exhaust pipe would be a good time- saver option. Watch out for power lines.
Step 3: Route & Connect Outside Antenna To Booster
Connect 2 ft. coax cable to the outside antenna, attach the lightning surge protector, then connect the black 75 ft. coax cable and route into building.

Route cable to the Office 200 booster and connect to the port labeled OUTSIDE ANTENNA’. **Step 4: Route & Connect Inside Antenna To Booster** Connect the black 60 ft. coax cable to the inside antenna and route to the Office 200 booster and connect to the port labeledINSIDE ANTENNA’.

Step 5: Power Up The Booster
Plug the power supply into the wall outlet then connect to the end of the booster labeled “ **” and enjoy your boosted signal.
NOTE:** We strongly recommend using a power strip with surge protection.

Measuring Booster Performance

How To Get Signal Strength As A Number
iPhone®
iOS 11 and later no longer displays the decibel (dBm) reading in `Field Test Mode. Tip: Using the signal bars and performing data speed tests on your cell phone can assist you in finding the strongest signal direction as well as placing calls in different locations. For changes/updates on this issue, periodically go to weboost.com/signalstrength.

Compare Results
Having an accurate measurement of signal strength in decibel milliwatts (dBm) is crucial when installing your system. dBm accurately measures the signal strength you are receiving.

DID YOU KNOW a signal increase of just 3dB is 2 times the power and signal amplification?

The Office 200 takes about 5 seconds to boot up. Once boot up is complete, the home screen will appear, showing the amplification and status of each port and band.
Band Menu Color Description
GREEN: A solid green light indicates that a band is operating correctly with maximum allowable gain.
YELLOW: A solid yellow light indicates band gain reduction because of an oscillation condition. Reposition antennas (increase the separation between indoor and outdoor antennas, and then reboot (turn the unit off & on) the Office 200 to reactivate the band and maximize performance. When adequate separation is achieved, the yellow lights will return to green upon reboot. Note: when the light is yellow, the band is operational; however, performance is reduced.
RED: A red light indicates a band has been shut down because of a severe oscillation condition or repeated oscillation. Reposition antennas (increase the separation between indoor and outdoor antennas, and then reboot (turn the unit off & on) the Office 200 to reactivate the band and maximize performance. When adequate separation is achieved, the red light(s) will return to green upon reboot.
GRAY: Gray indicates the band has been disabled.
Settings Screen
Tap the icon to view the Settings Screen.
Bands can be disabled/enabled by tapping the desired band. Note: disabling a cell band is not recommended. Bands should only be disabled by expert installers.
To go back to the home screen tap on the home icon.
To view specific band information (such as the strength of the received uplink & downlink signal, status details and the amplifier gain) tap desired band on the home screen.
By tapping on the desired Band, a more detailed screen will appear for better troubleshooting.
Note: If the reduced gain due to oscillation is greater or equal to 60dB, this condition will be displayed as Green instead of Yellow and no action is necessary.

Troubleshooting

IF YOU ARE HAPPY WITH THE COVERAGE, THESE LIGHT ISSUES DON’T HAVE TO BE RESOLVED. YOUR CARRIER’S BAND HAS NOT BEEN AFFECTED.
If the bands are any color other than green, use the touchscreen LCD and tap any given band that’s not green to see troubleshooting options.

Safety Guidelines

Use only the power supply provided in this package. The use of a non-weBoost power supply may damage your equipment. The signal booster unit is designed for use in an indoor, temperature-controlled environment (less than 100 degrees Fahrenheit). It is not intended for use in attics or similar locations subject to temperatures in excess of that range.
RF Safety Warning: Any antenna used with this device must be located at least 8 inches from all persons.
AWS Warning: The outside antenna must be installed no higher than 10 meters (31’9″) above ground.
This is a CONSUMER device.
BEFORE USE, you MUST REGISTER THIS DEVICE with your wireless provider and have your provider’s consent. Most wireless providers consent to the use of signal boosters. Some providers may not consent to the use of this device on their network. If you are unsure, contact your provider.
You MUST operate this device with approved antennas and cables as specified by the manufacturer.
Antennas MUST be installed at least 20 cm (8 inches) from any person.
You MUST cease operating this device immediately if requested by the FCC or licensed wireless service provider.
WARNING. E911 location information may not be provided or may be inaccurate for calls served by using this device. This device may be operated ONLY in a fixed location for in-building use.

Power output for single cell phone (Downlink) dBm

Each Signal Booster is individually tested and factory set to ensure FCC compliance. The Signal Booster cannot be adjusted without factory reprogramming or disabling the hardware. The Signal Booster will amplify, but not alter incoming and outgoing signals in order to increase coverage of authorized frequency bands only. If the Signal Booster is not in use for five minutes, it will reduce gain until a signal is detected. If a detected signal is too high in a frequency band, or if the Signal Booster detects an oscillation, the Signal Booster will automatically turn the power off on that band. For a detected oscillation the Signal Booster will automatically resume normal operation after a minimum of 1 minute. After 5 (five) such automatic restarts, any problematic bands are permanently shut off until the Signal Booster has been manually restarted by momentarily removing power from the Signal Booster. Noise power, gain, and linearity is maintained by the Signal Booster’s microprocessor.
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by weBoost could void the authority to operate this equipment.
