Installing and Removing the WiMAX Module

Note The module unit defaults to the Normal state when VCC is first applied.

Disconnected mode—No power to the module. The host power source is disconnected from the module and all voltages associated with the module are at 0 V.

CGR 1120 and CGR 1240 controls the power to the module, therefore the host can stay powered on and cut the power in order to put the module into the disconnected state.

Installing and Removing the WiMAX Module

Note After replacing or installing a module in the router, you must update the label (on the router exterior) that lists the module types contained in the router. The label must list the FCC ID number and the IC Certification number for each module installed in the router.

Before You Begin Installation

Before installing the module, verify that the following guidelines have been met:

Clearance to the I/O-side view is such that the LEDs can be easily read.

Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures. Make sure that the cabling is away from other devices that might damage the cables.

Airflow around the unit and through the vents is unrestricted.

Relative humidity around the unit does not exceed 95 percent (non-condensing).

Altitude at the installation site is not higher than 10,000 feet.

For 10/100 and 10/100/1000 fixed ports, cable lengths from the unit to connected devices are not longer than 328 feet (100 meters).
