terminals, do not leave bare wire exposed. Do not use a crimp
terminal for more than one wire unless it is designed for that

Step 4—Connect MP modem to
computer cable to the MP modem
The MP modem connects to:
•
A computer through a USB, Ethernet, or serial port.
•
Other optional devices through the DB15HD I/O
connector.
Note: Do not connect the MP modem to the computer until you have
installed the software.
The MP modem connects to a computer using:
•
A USB cable (with a Type A connector on the computer
end and a Type B connector on the MP modem end). The
maximum of the USB cable is 5.5-m (18 feet). These cables
are readily available from many suppliers.
•
An Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors. The type of cable
you use affects the performance of the MP modem. The
minimum requirement for the Ethernet cable is an
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable, category 3 or 4. For
better performance, use a shielded, category 5 cable. The
theoretical maximum length is 100-m (328 feet).
You can connect the MP modem Ethernet port directly to a
computer or other Ethernet device with either a cross-over
or a straight-through cable.
•
A serial cable (with a DB9 connector on the MP modem
end). The maximum length of the serial cable is 5.5-m
(18 feet). Sierra Wireless sells suitable serial cables in 5-m
(16-feet) lengths.
