Installation Manual
The weBoost 470111 Drive 3G-X Extreme Signal Booster Kit is the newest version of the Wilson 460111 MobileMaxx 3G Signal Booster Kit. The weBoost Drive 3G-X is the most powerful 2G & 3G mobile signal booster allowed by the FCC. It supports all major carriers in the United States and Canada, giving you fewer dropped calls, increased call clarity and reliable 3G downloads. Unlike less powerful signal boosters, the Drive 3G-X communicates with your phone wirelessly and does not require a direct connection or for your phone to sit in a cradle. Also, because it's wireless, the Drive 3G-X supports multiple phones and data devices at the same time.
The main benefit of the weBoost 470111 Drive 3G-X is that it features the most powerful uplink allowed by the FCC for a mobile booster, which gives you usable two-way communication up to 60% further from the cell tower than the standard Drive 3G-M. It's ideal for anyone whose work or travel takes them to places where cell service is critical but unreliable.
The Drive 3G-X's inside coverage area will depend on your existing outside signal strength. In areas where you get a moderate existing outside signal, the Drive 3G-X will fill a normal vehicle with boosted coverage. As the outside signal gets weaker, you may have to keep your phone within about 18 inches from the inside antenna in order to take advantage of the boosted signal.
For added durability, the Drive 3G-X amplifier is housed in an aluminum case, providing it with added protection while located under a seat, in the trunk, or in any other location within the vehicle.

Installation Overview
Installing the weBoost 470111 Drive 3G-X kit is very easy and can usually be done in just a few minutes. Because nothing is permanent, the kit can be transferred to another vehicle as needed.
To start, mount the 12 inch antenna on the roof of the vehicle. The antenna must be stuck to a metal surface. If you have a sunroof, position the antenna well behind the sunroof to increase the separation between the inside and outside antennas. Run the cable in through a door opening, under the door weather stripping to protect the cable. Connect the cable to the amplifier's Outside Antenna port. To the inside connect the inside antenna cable. Locate the inside antenna near where you'll typically be using the phone, for example, in the center console or on the side of the driver's seat. Ensure that the cables and amplifier won't be damaged if the front seats are adjusted. Keep inside antenna at least 8 inches for any person and approximately 18 inches from where you typically use your phone. See the below video for more information.
