How it works
The high-gain outside antenna captures even the weakest cell signal, from the cell tower where it is aimed.
The Fusion5X Max outside booster uses Extended Range Technology™ (ERT) to grab signal outside, at its strongest point, where it
boosts voice, text and data signals for all 4G & 5G devices.
Using ultra low-loss cable, signal is transmitted from the outside to the Fusion5X Max inside host amplier.
The signal is then broadcast from the inside panel antenna to all cellular devices in range.
The Fusion5X Max system also works in reverse, boosting the outgoing signal and to faraway and hard-to-reach towers.

INSTALLATION
Step 1. Find the Area With the Strongest Signal
Identify the outside location with the strongest signal for placement of your outdoor yagi antenna. This is generally found on
the side facing your nearest cell tower and as high as possible -- where the antenna can ‘see’ your cell tower.
For help locating your closest cell tower, you may utilize an app such as ‘Open Signal’ or go to www.antennasearch.com.
Please note, The coverage area that the booster provides is directly related to the strength of incoming signal received by the
outdoor antenna. Mounting the outside antenna where the signal is the strongest provides the best results. if signal is extremely
weak where the outside antenna is installed, indoor coverage will be limited. Bars are not always a reliable measure of signal.
The best way to conrm signal coverage is the ability to place and hold a call.
Installation Overview
Before installation, review the above information.
In addition to the contents listed below, you will need a ladder, drill, cable clips, and a pole or mast to mount your outside
components. A mounting pole is available separately (SC-MOUNT-JBAR), if needed. Prior to securing the location of any
booster parts, a “soft install” is recommended as adjustments may be needed to optimize performance.
Step 1. Find the outside area with the strongest signal.
Step 2. Install the outside yagi antenna and outside amp in the location identied in step 1.
Step 3. Install the inside antennas -- either Ultra Thin™ or panel antennas (x2).
Step 4. Place inside host amp and connect cables
Step 5. Connect power source and turn on.
Step 6. Test system performance and optimize conguration as needed.
For more detailed measurements, you can take readings of your phone’s signal in decibels(dB). Decibels are measured in the
negatives and generally should fall between -40 and -130. A score closer to zero indicates a stronger signal. For example, a
signal of -120 dB indicates no service, while a score of about -50 dB means you have excellent signal.
For specic dB signal measurements, use the methods below.
• iOS - First turn off your Wi-Fi, Next, open the Phone app an dial *3001#12345#* then press the call button. This will open
the Field Test app. Once open, menu navigation varies depending on iOS version, as well as, carrier and iPhone model;
however these instructions should get you to the right place.
• iOS 14 and later: Navigate to LTE in the menu list then tap on Serving Cell Meas. The measurements that read
“rsrp0” and “rspr1” are your cellular signal strength in decibel-milliwatts.
• If you’re using an earlier version of iOS, we have more information available here: https://blog.surecall.com/enter-
eld-test-mode-on-iphone-or-android-phones/
• Android devices: Download the app “Network Signal Info” in the Google Play store.
Step 2. Install the Outside Yagi Antenna and Outside Amplier
Once you have identied the area of strongest signal, choose where you will mount your outside antenna and outside amplier
while considering the following factors:
1. The mounting area must have at least a 3 ft radius clear of obstructions, other radiating elements and metal objects such
as pipes or metal siding.
2. Both components should be mounted on a pole or pipe (not provided), at the highest possible location above the
rooine – at least 25 vertical feet above the planned location for the indoor antenna.
Note there are two main outside components -- a Yagi directional antenna and the outside amplier.
Warning: Do not collocate antennas or operate the outdoor antenna with any other antenna or signal booster.

IMPORTANT:
Take caution during installation to not aim these antenna towards the other
antenna
Aiming Directional Antennas
➊
Install the Yagi antenna
Once you have identied your install location, assemble the u-bolt,
bracket, nuts and washers onto a pole (available separately) as shown in the
illustration.
Keep the connections loose enough to allow the antenna to rotate until the
optimum direction is found.
Orient the antenna with the drip hole at the bottom.
➋
Place the Outside Amplier
Next assemble the bracket for the outside amplier the same way you did
the yagi bracket and secure in the same location within range of the antenna
cable connection.
➌
Connect the yagi cable connector to the outside amplier as shown
here.
With both components in place, connect one end of the provided 75 ft. coax
cable to the outside amplier and hand tighten the connection.

Step 3. Install the Inside Antennas
Choose a location for the booster and inside antenna that is near a working outlet and at least 25 Ft from the outside antenna.
Consider the below factors affecting booster performance.
Signal strength at the location of the outside antenna.
Interior building materials between the inside antennas and your mobile device.
Distance between the outside antenna and inside antennas (minimum 25 ft. separation)
Ensure inside antennas point away from the outside antenna
Note: This booster should not be used near open re or ame. Storage and transportation: Store and place in non-extreme room-
temperature and dry environment.
For kits that include Inside Ultra Thin Antennas
The SC-588W wideband antenna is an omni-directional interior antenna that gathers and sends signals from all sides. Besides
the antenna itself, parts include mounting options for an install that is accessible by crawl space or one that is not. Optimally, It
should be located central to where signal is needed with minimal obstacles. The range of this antenna is dependent on three
factors:
1. Physical obstructions
2. Power generated by booster
3. Signal level received by the outdoor antenna
For Each Antenna:
If accessible by crawl space:
1. Drill a 20 mm diameter hole in the ceiling. The size should be large enough to
allow the antenna’s plastic cable base to pass through.
2. Place antenna cable through hole.
3. From crawl space, screw the xing nut onto antenna
If not accessible by crawl space, a metal bracket mount has been provided along with instructions for this mounting option.
Route Cable
1. Connect each indoor antenna to an indoor cable provided with your kit. Run
the cables along route toward the planned location of your booster.
Note: Be sure to provide enough separation from outdoor antenna (at least 25 ft. is
recommended).

For kits that include Inside Panel Antennas
The provided panel antennas are multi-band directional antennas with a 120˚ reach. They
should be mounted facing the area signal is needed. It is also important that they do not point
toward the outdoor antenna. Range of antenna is dependent on three factors:
1. Physical obstructions
2. Power generated by booster
3. Signal level received by the outdoor antenna
Besides the antenna itself, parts include mounting equipment for a at horizontal surface.
You can also install your interior antenna behind a wall or above a ceiling panel
provided there are not materials that could obstruct signals.
For Each Antenna:
1. Choose location for mounting antenna on vertical surface. Ideal height off
the ground or oor should be the approximate height of regular cell phone
use.
2. Using plate, mark position of desired screw placement with pencil or marker.
3. Screw mounting plate into place with the slide panel protruding towards you.
4. Slide antenna securely onto mounting plate.
Route Cable
Connect each indoor antenna to an indoor cable provided with your kit. Run the
cables along route toward the planned location of your booster.
Note: Be sure to provide enough separation from outdoor antenna (at least 25 ft.
is recommended).
