When fitting the antenna plug ensure that it is seated correctly. It should be possible to turn the threaded nut easily.

NOTE

Standard GSM antennas with an FME plug can be used. The GSM antenna is not supplied with the modem and can be ordered separately.

Ensure that you buy an antenna with the correct frequency range for your mobile communi- cations network. Further information on this is provided in the Appendix of this manual in section 10.4, Mobile communication networks in Europe, USA and worldwide.

If the length of the antenna cable is not sufficient for your requirements you can use a suit- able extension cable purchased as an accessory from a GSM outlet. Take into account the attenuation of these cables that will reduce the antenna gain and observe the relevant speci- fications of the manufacturer.
