Installation of SIM/UIM card:

Firstly power off the router, 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 cellular antenna to the female SMA interface of the router

with sign “WWAN”.

Screw the SMA female pin of the WIFI antenna to the male SMA interface of the router with

sign “WIFI”.

Warning: The cellular antenna and the WIFI antenna can not be connected wrongly. And the

antennas must be screwed tightly, or the signal quality of antenna will be influenced!

Installation of cable:

Insert one end of the network cable into the switch interface with sign “Local Network”, and
insert the other end into the Ethernet interface of user’s device. The signal connection of network
direct cable is as follows:

RJ45-1

RJ45-2

1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 6 6 7 7 8

8

Insert the RJ45 end of the console cable into the RJ45 outlet with sign “console”, and insert

the DB9F end of the console cable into the RS232 serial interface of user’s device.

The signal connection of the console cable is as follows:

RJ45

DB9F 1 8 2 6 3 2 4 1 5 5 6 3 7 4 8 7

The signal definition of the DB9F serial communication interface is as follows:
