Getting Started - Zoom 4575 User Manual

Getting Started

This manual is for Zoom model 4575 and its uncased version, model 4576. These
tm
ZoomCell modems use the Huawei MU609 LGA module and have a top downstream
speed of 14.4 Mbps. The cased model comes in a rugged aluminum case and includes a
power cube, 3 antennas (main, diversity, and GPS), and a printed Quick Start. The
cased model is normally your best choice for initial test and use of the MU609-based
modem, and the cased model may be a good choice for integration into a particular
system. Because the uncased model is designed for lower cost and volume applications,
it does not come with a power cube or antennas.
The Quick Start section below repeats much of the information in the Quick Start flyer of
Zoom Models 4575 and 4576. The Table of Contents shows interesting topics covered in
this manual.
For details about Model 4575 and 4576 hardware, including power specifications and
details about the modem's input/output ports, please see the Model 4575 datasheet at
www.zoomtel.com/4575.
Because Model 4575 and 4576 use the PTCRB certified Huawei MU609 LGA module,
you can also find a lot of useful information from Huawei's documentation, including
information about the command set for controlling Models 4575 and 4576. A link to this
documentation is available at www.zoomtel.com/4575support .
Quick Start
This Quick Start describes how to plug a micro SIM card into the SIM slot of the modem,
connect the antennas, power up the modem, and then use the USB port of a Windows
computer to connect to the Internet. It is intended as an example to get you up and using
the modem quickly. If you do not want to try this you can skip this section. There are
many other ways to use the modem, and these are described in the following chapters.
