Page 19: Usb Cable Recommendations
If possible, use a USB port that connects directly to the motherboard rather than a USB port with added cabling inside the computer chassis. Use USB 3.0 ports if available. These ports are typically rated for more current. You can order the USB cable through MultiTech. The part number is CA-USB-A-MINI-B-3 Powering Down Your Device CAUTION: Failing to properly power down the device before removing power may corrupt your device's file system. -
Page 20: Removing A Sim Card
Some environments are harsher on particular bands. MultiTech products have antenna connectors at the best spacing for the product size. Placing antennas in close proximity to each other is not optimal, but you can do it if necessary. It depends on the signal strength to and from each antenna. -
Page 21: Antenna Approvals And Safety Considerations
All antennas need to have a minimum flammability rating. Safety requirements depend on your final product. Unless otherwise noted, antennas certified by MultiTech are not approved for outdoor use. Do not extend these antennas outside of any building. Diversity and Power Draw There are no significant power draw differences. -
