Connecting a Device to the USB Port
Before connecting a USB device to the MobilePro 900, install a ferrite core on
the USB cable. Installation of the ferrite core on the USB cable red uces rad io
interference when you use a USB device connected to the MobilePro 900. Ferrite
cores ship with the MobilePro 900.
Note The USB PC Connect cable that ships with the MobilePro 900
comes with a ferrite core installed. You do not need to install a ferrite core on
this cable.
Install a ferrite core on any other USB cable you connect to the MobilePro,
including the cable attached to a USB mouse or USB keyboard.
To reduce radio interference when using a USB
device, be sure the USB cable has a ferrite core installed.
Use the following procedure to install the ferrite core.
1. Locate one of the ferrite cores that ships with the MobilePro 900.

Connecting an Optional Headphone
Before connecting an optional headphone to the MobilePro 900, install a ferrite
core on the connector end of the headphone cable. Installation of the ferrite core

with the MobilePro 900.

cable (see the previous section, “Connecting a Device to the USB Port”). The
procedure for installing the ferrite core is the same for both cables.
