Tip: When using a cable to an antenna placed away from the

modem, minimize the length of your cable. All gain from a more

advantageous antenna placement can be lost with a long cable to the

modem.

Note: When using a DC power

source (such as a car battery or

solar cell), Sierra Wireless

recommends placing a fuse (1-2

Amp) on the line close to the

power source to protect your

power source from possible

surges due to shorts or other line

issues.
