This placement provides contact of both top rims (FIG. 10).
2. Use an alcohol pad (included) to clean both the rear housing’s inner surface (bottom right corner)
and the underside of the terminal antenna’s metal plate (FIG. 9). These surfaces must be properly
cleaned to provide good adhesion for the later installation of the antenna.
3. Place the included Mounting Template along the bottom right corner of the rear housing (FIG. 10).
Use the housing’s inner supports to position the template properly.
Grip the sides of the NXA-WC80211GCF and insert it into the slot opening at a downward angle
until the contact pins are securely attached to the pin sockets.
2. Carefully peel off one side of the included double-sided tape and adhere the adhesive side to the
surface of the antenna’s metal plate.
3. Align the double-sided tape to the surface of the terminal antenna’s metal plate, in order to later
secure the antenna within the pre-defined installation area outlined by the included Mounting
Template.
4. Locate the T-shaped opening on the left of the cutout and make sure the antenna wire is located
along the left side of the cutout (FIG. 4).
