4.Use the four mounting screws supplied to secure the booster through the holes along the base of the booster case.
Install CDPD Cabling and Connector
Due to the variation in required cable lengths and connector types that may be needed between the booster and the host CDPD device, there is no host cable in the AirBooster 350 RF amplifier package. These cables are ordered separately from Sierra Wireless.
The steps involved in the connection are:
1.Determine a suitable location for the host end connection.
2.Thread the cable through the vehicle so that the SMA connector is available for connection to the booster.
3.Connect the SMA connector to the AirBooster 350 MODEM connector. Tighten firmly by hand; do not use tools.
Installing the Antenna, Cable, and Connector
Variation in the installation requirements for antenna type and cable lengths prevent inclusion of these components in the product package. Antennas and cables can be ordered separately from Sierra Wireless or other suppliers.
The requirements for the antenna are:
●Standard cellular frequencies.
●50 Ohm impedance.
●TNC connector (for the booster end).
●3dBd gain (recommended but not required)
●Approved Manufacturer and Model
The steps involved in the installation and connection are:
1.Determine a suitable location for the antenna at least 50cm from bystanders (open air exposure). Mount it according to the instructions provided with it.
2.Thread the cable through the vehicle so that the TNC connector is available for connection to the booster.
3.Connect the TNC connector to the AirBooster 350 ANTENNA connector. Tighten firmly by hand; do not use tools.
Connecting Power to the AirBooster 350 Amplifier
A power cable is provided in the AirBooster 350 package. The recommended connection is illustrated below.
