Figure 2-1 Installation Chart

Installation of SIM/UIM card:

Firstly power off the IP MODEM, and press the out button of the SIM/UIM card outlet with a
needle object. Then the SIM/UIM card sheath will flick out at once. Put SIM/UIM card into the
card sheath (Pay attention to put the side which has metal point outside), and insert card sheath
back to the SIM/UIM card outlet.

Warning: Forbid to install SIM/UIM card when powered!

Installation of antenna:

Screw the SMA male pin of the antenna to the female SMA outlet of the IP MODEM tightly.

Warning: The antenna must be screwed tightly, or the signal quality of antenna will be influenced!
