1. Connect an Active Modem to the Adapter.

Keep the CBA750 adapter in the OFF position until the modem is securely connected. Connect a CradlePoint Business-Grade Modem, or a supported USB or ExpressCard modem to the CBA750 adapter in the appropriate port or slot. Your modem will require an active subscription from your service provider. If you have not already done so, add a data service plan to your modem by contacting your service provider. You will need to provide unique identifiers such as the modem IMEI, ESN, WiMAX MAC, or SIM ID.

2. Connect the Modem Antennas (for optional Business-Grade Modem).

Attach the modem antennas to the connectors. To attach, hold the antenna straight and twist the base of the antenna to connect. CradlePoint also offers accessory antennas to meet many installation needs.

3. Determine the Best Location.

After the modem is connected and data service established, the Signal Strength LEDs on the CBA750 will illuminate 1-4 bars (see LEDs on page 9). Data closets inside buildings often don’t receive adequate reception. Remote the CBA750 or cabled antennas and place at the edge of the building. Use RSSI and CINR/SINR/ECIO readings for more accuracy.
