Mount the Antenna(s)
Mount Modem Antenna
The following table describes the steps for mounting an antenna.
1 Use an antenna suitable for the cellular band of frequencies (806-870 MHz) with Mini UHF jack and
matched for 50-ohm impedance.
2 Mount the antenna according to the manufacturer's specifications or instructions.
NOTE: Each antenna has specific installation instructions. Please refer to the antenna installation instructions for
specific requirements and details.
Mount GPS Antenna (optional)
The iR1200 GPS-Enabled modem comes equipped with a connector for a GPS antenna. The following table contains the steps for
mounting a GPS antenna.
1 Use an antenna suitable for the GPS of frequency 1575 MHz with an MCX connector and matched for 50-
ohm impedance. (Use only an approved antenna – see available and approved Antennas on eLutions'
website, www.elutions.com/wireless).
2 Position the antenna where it has a direct line-of-sight to the satellite.
3 Mount the antenna according to the manufacturer's specifications or instructions.
NOTE: Because of the operating frequencies involved with the GPS signal, splicing or using adapters to extend the
length of the antenna coaxial cable is not recommended and will likely prevent the system from operating
properly. We recommend that a single length of coax without splices or adapters be used.

The cellular antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or
operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This device
is approved with emissions having a source-based time-averaging duty
factor not exceeding 67.5%.
Vehicle – Antenna Installation:
•
Antennas used for this transmitter must not exceed an antenna gain of 5 dBd
(commonly specified as 3dB gain).
•
For rear deck trunk and rooftop installations, the antenna must be located at
least 20 cm away from rear-seat passengers and bystanders in order to
comply with the FCC RF exposure requirements.
IMPORTANT: Failure to observe these restrictions will result in exceeding
the FCC RF exposure limits.
