This section describes how to find an appropriate installation location for the CSM, and how
to install the CSM on the building.

Selecting a location for the CSM

Determine the optimum installation location for the CSM before physically mounting the CSM
to the building.
Most often, if the CSM is mounted on the side of the building facing the base station of the
service provider, the CSM can detect adequate signal to provide high-speed Internet access.
However, unless there is an obvious line of sight to the correct base station, the correct
orientation of the CSM is often not apparent. There may also be practical reasons why the CSM
cannot be mounted on the side of the building that faces the base station.

Selecting an installation location for the CSM
Using a laptop and a temporary power source connected to the CSM
locate the optimal site for the CSM to be installed.

Start by pointing the front of the CSM in the direction that is most likely to
be optimal.
Try pointing the CSM in different directions. If required, perform this
task while standing in the upper stories or on the roof of the building. At
each elevation and in each direction the CSM is pointed.
After determining the place where the best signal can be detected using
the CSM GUI screen information, choose a corresponding CSM installation
location on the building.
NOTE
The CSM can be mounted either directly on the building or on a
pole.
