Prerequisites for installing the router

Selecting the router installation location

Installing the satellite router

Installation of the HX90 satellite router consists of physical installation, followed by
commissioning and registration. These processes prepare the router for operation on
the satellite network. Installation tasks include:
• Physical installation and power-up
• Entering parameters required for commissioning
• Commissioning, including antenna pointing
The installation software is factory pre-installed in the satellite router. If necessary,
this software is automatically updated as part of the installation process. You access
the installation software through a browser on your installer computer to perform
tasks such as entering required parameters.
The following are required before you can install, commission, and register the
satellite router:
• The antenna and radio assembly must be installed, as instructed in the antenna
installation guide. (However, you point the antenna as part of the router
commissioning process, which is explained later in this installation guide.)
• The IFL cables must be installed and connected to the satellite router and to the
radio assembly (LNB and transmitter).
See also Items required for installation on page 14 and Related components on
page 18.
Select a location for the satellite router that will accommodate all required cable
connections, including connection to the power source.
