Wilson 460101 DT4G - Voice, 3G & 4G LTE for all Carriers [Discontinued]

The Wilson 460101 DT 4G Kit from Wilson Electronics is the first 5-Band Home and Small Office signal booster that will work for all carrier's Voice, 3G, and 4G LTE networks.* The DT4G features a 60 dB amplifier that can cover multiple rooms if you have a strong existing outside signal. It's also one of the most versatile signal boosters with an "outside" antenna that can be mounted to the inside of a window, making it perfect for apartments, condos, and dorm rooms, or the antenna can be mounted outside on a pole for the best performance.

You Should Choose This Kit If

Wilson 460101 DT4G Kit is very versatile and works well in these situations:

You can't install an antenna outside of your home or office
You are not able to put an antenna outside of your home or office or you only need to cover a small room like an office. This kit is designed for apartments, condos, and offices where putting an antenna outside is not possible. With this kit, the "outside" antenna can mount onto the inside of a window and cover a room or two with a boosted signal.

You are looking for an inexpensive 3G and 4G LTE signal booster for one or multiple carriers
The DT4G is the most affordable signal booster that can boost multiple 4G LTE networks in addition to the previous 2G and 3G networks.

You only need to cover a small area inside
The DT4G is designed to cover a small inside area. Depending on where you mount the outside antenna and the strength of your existing signal, it may be possible to cover multiple rooms from the DT4G. However, most installations will only cover one or two small rooms with a boosted signal.

Coverage Area

Many variables impact the total coverage area of a signal booster system. The following are estimates only and may not be accurate in any individual situation.

• If you have an existing strong 5-bar outside signal, you may get up to 1,500 sq ft of coverage inside**
• If you have an existing 3 to 4-bar (-90 dB) outside signal, you may get up to 750 sq ft of coverage inside**
• If you have an existing 1 to 2-bar (-100 dB) outside signal, you may get up to 150 sq ft of coverage inside**

Supported Carriers

The DT4G supports all major and regional carriers including:

• AT&T 2G, 3G, 4G H+ & 4G LTE

Installation Overview

The Wilson DT4G has three different installation options for mounting the window mount panel antenna. The easiest option is to mount the panel antenna using the included suction cups to the inside of an external window. This is by far the most convenient, but also produces the smallest coverage area from the system. The next option is to mount it on a wall outside of the building, which will give you more coverage, but also requires you to run a cable into the building. Finally, the last option is to install the panel antenna on a pole on the roof of the building. This installation option will give you the best coverage, but requires you to install a vertical pole on the roof and aim the panel antenna.

Additionally, before you begin, we recommend a soft installation initially, where you don't permanently mount components, drill holes or finalize cable runs until you're sure that the system is performing to the level that you would like. Once you've tested out antenna and component locations, and are satisfied wth the results, then you can go ahead and permanently install everything. Finally, read through the entire set of installation instructions both here and in the included manual before beginning, and feel free to call us with any questions before you proceed.

To install, just follow these steps:

1. If you decide to install the "external" panel antenna in the window, then you'll need to first determine which window has the best initial signal. Use your phone to check each window for the strongest signal, and then locate the external antenna in the window with the strongest signal. Connect the included RG6 cable to the antenna.
   
   If you decide to install the external panel antenna on the exterior wall of the building, then use your cell phone to determine which wall of the building gets the best signal, and mount it in that location. Connect the included RG6 cable and run into the building.
   
   If you decide to install the external panel antenna on the roof of the building, you'll first need to determine the side of the building that gets the strongest signal. Once that's been identified, then you'll need to install a vertical pole on the roof of that side of the building to mount the antenna to, such as the pole mount assembly, which you can purchase from UberSignal or something similar from a local hardware store. Once you have the pole installed, attach the external panel antenna and point away from the building, then connect the included RG6 cable and run into the building. You may be able to enter the building through a vent or soffet, but may need to drill a hole if no other opening is available.
   
   
2. If you've purchased a lighting surge protector, then conncect that now to the RG6 cable, and then connect the 2ft cable to the "Outside Antenna" port of the amplifier, otherwise directly connect the outside cable to the "Outside Antenna" port. To the inside of the amplifier, attach the cable that is connected to the inside tower antenna, and locate the tower antenna on a desk or table facing towards the area that needs boosted signal. Once all of the components are connected, power on the amplifier by plugging it in. As it's powering up, you should see the lights flashing, and then check to see that they turn solid green. If they are blinking or are any other color than green, you'll need to troubleshoot the setup by consulting the manual or contact us for help.
   
   
3. If you mounted the outside antenna outside on a pole, you'll need to aim it for best results. Start with the antenna high on the roof pointed in one direction. Turn on the system and have an inside helper inside stand near the inside antenna and take a signal reading with their phone in field test mode. Rotate the antenna 45 degrees and then pause for 30 to 60 seconds. After the pause, the person inside should take another signal reading, and then you can repeat the process. Each time your partner checks the signal strength, also check to make sure there aren't any warning lights on the amplifier. After you've gone all the way around, mount the antenna facing in the direction with the strongest signal.

The included manual is very helpful and we recommend reading through it before beginning the installation. If you run into any issues, feel free to contact us for help.

* Will boost all 2G, 3G, and 4G LTE networks with the exception of Clearwire WiMAX. Contact us to verify that your carrier is supported.

** The actual coverage area of a signal booster is dependent on many factors including existing outside signal strength, obstructions between you and the cell tower, the materials used in your home or office, the layout of the area you need to cover with a boosted signal, and other factors. The approximate coverage areas listed above are estimates. Actual coverage area will vary based on these and other factors.
