Reasons for Using an In-Line with In-Building
Installations
Covering multiple rooms or even floors of a building can be challenging as each
is a different size and shape. Balancing the signal coverage can require multiple
attenuators, cables, taps and splitters. All of these can decrease your system gain
and coverage. Reasons to install an In-Line include:
1. Cable loss – Long runs of cable from the Inside Antenna to the main In-
Building Signal Booster may have significant loss or require Wilson 400 low-
loss cable.
2. Splitter loss – When multiple rooms must be evenly covered, a splitter evenly
divides the signal for separate Inside Antennas. Each division reduces system
gain and inside coverage area.
3. Tap loss – Taps pass the signal with low attenuation out one port and pass the
signal with high attenuation port continues on to another location possibly with
more splitters and taps downstream. The attenuation port typically runs directly
to an Inside Antenna.
4. Increased system dynamic range – A user who gets too near an Inside
Antenna can lower the gain and coverage area for all other users. The In-Line
adds dynamic range to the In-Building installation and reduces use of the main
Signal Booster automatic gain control.
The In-Line overcomes the losses associated with large In-Building installations.
The In-Line recovers inside coverage area that is normally lost due to cable, splitter
and tap loss. By installing the In-Line near an Inside Antenna, uplink noise figure
is minimized and downlink power is maximized. Additionally, the In-Line enhances
performance of the main Signal Booster by increasing the systems gain and input
signal dynamic range. The variable gain knobs on the In-Line allow for simple,
quick signal level balancing and installation.
