Select Antenna Location
The antenna must be positioned where it has direct line-of-sight to the sky. In some cases, this can be accomplished by placing
the antenna adjacent to a window. In most cases it will require mounting outside of the building.

Important things to consider when installing the antenna equipment.
•
Equipment must be installed in accordance with manufacturer's installation
instructions.
•
To ensure compliance with United States FCC regulations on RF exposure,
equipment must be installed in such a way as to maintain a separation of at least
8 inches (20 cms) between the antenna and the human body.
•
Ensure that the antenna is properly installed external to the vehicle and in
accordance with the requirements of the antenna manufacturer/supplier.
•
Use only an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications or
attachments could impair call quality, damage the modem, or violate FCC
mandates.
IMPORTANT: Only approved and tested components should be used with the
iR1200 modem. Use of unapproved components violates the modem's
warranty.
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.
