NAPCO iSecure ISEC-EXTANT-KIT Manual

Install the ISEC-EXTANT-KIT (optional)
The ISEC-EXTANT-KIT Internal LTE Extended Antenna
Bracket Kit is installed inside the iSecure Go-Anywhere
Hub to permit the connection of an external LTE antenna to
improve reception in weak cellular signal areas. This Bracket
assembly, pictured in Fig. 1, provides an alternate SMA con-
nection to the LTE radio, allowing the use of Napco SLE-
ANTEXT antenna kits. The remote-mounted antenna is a
dual-wideband, indoor/outdoor LTE antenna that significantly
improves cellular reception (Note: Mount the SLE-ANTEXT
antenna before performing these instructions to allow its im-
mediate use after installing the ISEC-EXTANT-KIT and the
radio is re-powered). For details about the SLE-ANTEXT, see
WI2230, available from the NAPCO Technical Library at

INSTALLATION STEPS
Bracket installation requires flat and Phillips head screwdrivers
and a cable zip tie (supplied).
