Page 5: Understanding Safety Alert Messages
Understanding safety alert messages Safety alert messages call attention to potential safety hazards and tell you how to avoid them. These messages are identified by the signal words WARNING or CAUTION, as illustrated below. To avoid possible property damage, personal injury, or in some cases possible death, read and comply with all safety alert messages. -
Page 6: Chapter 1 Introduction
Introduction Chapter 1 The purpose of this guide is to provide assistance to personnel installing the Hughes 9450 mobile satellite terminal into a vehicle. This product must be installed by Authorized Service Personnel. Note: Damages resulting in the failure to conform to the instructions found herein, as well as standard installation practices, will be the responsibility of the installer. -
Page 7: Indoor Unit (Idu)
Indoor Unit (IDU) The IDU provides all of the TE interfaces, plus the interface for the antenna (ODU) and manages the communications over the Inmarsat BGAN network. Communication to the ODU is provided by the RF cable from the IDU. Physical dimensions IDU: Size: 46 mm x 281 mm x 233 mm... -
Page 8: 4X Rj-45 Ethernet With Power Over Ethernet (Poe) Ports
4X RJ-45 Ethernet with Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports There are four RJ-45 ports with Power over Ethernet (PoE) on the IDU. Note, the 9450L and LW do not have PoE. The ports supply standard PoE according to the IEEE 802.3af standard (48 Vdc up to 15.4 W) and 10/100BaseT Ethernet. -

Table 4. ISDN port pin out ISDN RX+(+40 ISDN TX+(-40 ISDN TX-(-40 V) ISDN RX-(+40 RJ-11 ports There are two RJ-11 ports on the IDU of the 9450, 9450E and 9450TW: FAX is for 3.1 kbps fax calls and TEL for 4 kbps speech calls. -
Page 10: Wlan Port
WLAN port The WLAN port on the 9450, 9450LW and 9450TW IDU is a reverse polarity SMA jack. The supplied antenna is a 2.4 GHz 3 dBi “Rubber Duck” antenna with RP-SMA plug connector, part number HG2403RD-RSF. To prevent blocking or attenuation of the WLAN signal, the IDU should be installed such that there is no metal blocking the radio path to the user’s device. -
Page 11: System Power Requirements
System power requirements Chapter 2 There is one power connection on the IDU. This must be connected to a 12 or 24 Vdc power supply. Power requirements and consumption are as follows: Table 6. System power requirements Voltage Input Minimum 10 V Voltage Input Maximum 32 V... -
Page 12: Standard Cable Connections
Standard cable connections Chapter 3 In addition to the DC power connection, an ignition sense connection must be made. This is done using the three-wire power cable. In the case of a vehicle installation, the power source is typically the vehicle battery. Cables should be routed appropriately and cable ties and clamps should be used as required to ensure that vibration and/or rubbing of the cables does not occur. -

Page 14: Chapter 5 Vehicular Installation
Vehicular installation Chapter 5 Basic installation procedure The basic installation procedure is as follows: 1. Decide where you are going to install the antenna and IDU. 2. Ensure that the IDU is located inside the vehicle and attached to something structurally solid. Loose mounts that vibrate will degrade performance. -
Page 15: Common Idu Mounting Information
8. Install the IDU in a protected but ventilated area. Allow at least a 1-inch space around all surfaces, except for the bottom surface attached to the vehicle, to provide adequate cooling. Ensure that the location is accessible for servicing. 9. -
Page 16: Power Management
Power Management Hughes recommends that a power management device (e.g., Charge Guard) be installed in the vehicle to prevent battery drain and extend battery life. Charge Guard features: • automatically turns mobile equipment On when you start the engine • When you turn the engine Off, the equipment stays On from 5 seconds to infinity depending upon the time delay setting and the battery capacity... -
Page 17: Figure 5-3 Charge Guard Wiring Diagram
Do not connect the Charge Guard in series with the positive supply wire of the 9450 as this is a high current connection and the impedance must be kept to a minimum. Charge Guard 9450 IDU Use 14 AWG: up to 26ft (8m) 12 AWG: up to 40ft (12m) 10 AWG: up to 65ft (20m) Battery... -
Page 18: The Antenna Outdoor Unit (Odu)
The antenna Outdoor Unit Chapter 6 (ODU) The antenna unit is composed of the antenna element, high-power and low-noise amplifier systems, and a mechanical tracking system housed in the radome. The Class 10 and Class 11 ODU’s are a 2-axis antenna intended for land-mobile use. -
Page 19: Antenna Cable Lengths And Types
Antenna cable lengths and types The Hughes IDU has an automatic cable calibration feature that determines the dB loss of the cable. If a longer RF cable is required for the installation, the end-to-end RF loss needs to be <10 dB at 1.6 GHz and the cable must be 50 Ohm impedance. Note: The installer is responsible for choosing the proper type of cable for the length required in order to meet the <10 dB requirement. -

Page 22: Permanent Mount Installation
Permanent mount installation When permanently installing the antenna on vehicles, some important guidelines must be followed in order to ensure long and trouble free operation. Not following these guidelines will void the warranty of the antenna. If in doubt, please consult SpaceCom at spacecom@spacecom.dk or call (+45) 98511576, Service Department. -
Page 23: Drainage Of The Antenna
The 3 spacers will have identical length if the antenna is installed on a non-tilting surface, but may require individual length adjustment if the surface is tilting. The M5 stainless steel bolts will have identical length if the three spacers are identical and may require individual length adjustment if spacer length are different. -

Page 25: Extreme Conditions
Figure 6-4 C10 Mounting Hole Pattern Extreme Conditions A supplementary kit, that enhances the robustness against splashing water from any direction and improves robustness against dirt and dust in very harsh environments, is available from SpaceCom. This kit will however increase the total height of the antenna by 15 mm.
