Introduction

For homes and small offices, the SureCall Flare Fusion4Home Omni Antenna is a potent cellular signal booster that improves voice, text, and 4G LTE data signals. Its omni-directional outside antenna, which receives signals from all directions, and interior whip antenna, which disperses the boosted signal throughout the structure, make it perfect for spaces up to 4,000 square feet. All major North American carriers can benefit from quicker data speeds and better call quality thanks to this adaptable solution, which supports several users and devices at once. The Fusion4Home Omni Antenna, which is FCC approved and simple to install, is ideal for improving interior cellular coverage and decreasing dropped calls.

Description

The Surecall Flare Fusion4Home Omni Antenna is a high-quality antenna designed for use with the Surecall Fusion4Home signal booster system. This antenna is built to last, with a weather-resistant design that ensures reliable performance in all conditions. The omnidirectional design of the antenna allows it to receive signals from all directions, making it an ideal choice for use in areas with weak or inconsistent cellular coverage. The antenna has a gain of 4 dBi and an N-female connector, making it easy to connect to your signal booster system.

Installation Overview

FIND OUTSIDE LOCATION WITH STRONGEST SIGNAL
Using your phone, identify the outside location with the strongest signal. This is generally found on the side facing your nearest cell tower and as high as possible. Capturing the strongest possible signal with your outside antenna will provide the best resulting coverage.
Please note that bars are not always a reliable measure of signal. The best way to confirm signal coverage is the ability to place and hold a call. Before installation, ensure there will be adequate separation between the planned locations of the outside antenna and booster (at least 25 ft.).
INSTALL THE OUTSIDE ANTENNA
After identifying the area of the strongest signal, identify a surface where you will mount the outside antenna. The mounting location should be free from obstructions, metal, or other radiating elements and at the highest possible elevation, also allowing for the minimum 25 feet separation from the booster.
The included antenna hardware allows for two mounting options: a surface mount or a pole mount*. Assemble and secure the provided L-Bracket and hardware (example shown below) to your chosen surface. Next, secure the antenna upright and vertically to the bracket and connect one end of the provided 50 ft. cable to the antenna and tighten.
PLACE THE BOOSTER
Place the Flare signal booster in a central location where cellular reception is needed, at least 25 feet from the outside antenna and close to an AC outlet. When placing the booster, note that further separation between the booster and outside antenna will increase booster performance.
Route the cable from the outside antenna inside to the booster location and tighten the connection.
CONNECT TO POWER
Once the booster and the outside antenna are connected, connect the power cord to the Flare booster and plug it into a 110V AC power outlet.
Place a call in the room where the booster is located to confirm that your phone is receiving a boosted signal.

If You Want to Improve Coverage

Identify a location outside that receives a stronger signal and move the outside antenna to that location (higher is usually better).
Increase the distance between the booster and outside antenna.
Consider upgrading your outside antenna to a directional outside antenna that can be aimed to your nearest cell tower.

Setup Guide

To set up the Surecall Fusion4Home Omni Antenna, follow these steps:

Connect the antenna to your Surecall Fusion4Home signal booster system using the N-female connector.
Place the antenna in a location with good cellular reception, such as near a window or on the roof of your building.
Point the antenna in the direction of the nearest cell tower for optimal performance.
Verify that the antenna is securely connected and that the signal booster system is turned on.
Check the signal strength on your mobile device to ensure that the antenna is functioning properly.

SureCall Flare Fusion4Home Omni Antenna LED Indicators

LED Position	Condition	Indication
Left or Right	OFF -OR-	Solid Yellow - Normal active operation.
Left	Yellow Flashing	Normal operation. Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is self-adjusting.
Left	Red Flashing	The booster is receiving too strong of a signal which could cause the booster to automatically shut down.
		If this happens, relocate the outside antenna to a location where the signal is weaker. Move in small increments away from cell tower until Red flashing stops.
Right	Yellow Flashing	Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is preventing oscillation. Increased separation between outside antenna and booster is recommended to optimize performance.
Right	Red/Yellow	Alternately Flashing - Booster has shut down to prevent oscillation. Increased separation between the outside antenna and booster is required to continue operation.

Troubleshooting

Problem: Signal booster has no power
Resolution

Connect the power supply to an alternate power source.
Verify that the power source is not controlled by a switch that has removed power from the outlet.
If the Power LED on the signal booster is still OFF, contact tech support at: 1-888-365-6283 or support@surecall.com

Problem: After completing installation, indoor signal coverage has not improved
Resolution

Verify that all cable connections are tightly fitted.
Try further separating the booster and antenna.
Verify that there is usable signal where the outside antenna is placed.

Remember: Bars are not always a reliable measure of signal. The best way to confirm signal coverage is the ability to place and hold a call.
