Step 7: Attaching Antenna Feed cable to the Hughes 9201 BGAN Satellite Modem
Important Note:
•
The GPS fix needs to be obtained prior to connecting to the antenna.
•
The Hughes 9201 should be placed in a location with good visibility of the GPS satellite constellation to
obtain a GPS fix.
1. Open the rubber plug on the rear of the modem terminal and unplug the MCX connector inside (refer to
figures 8a and 8b).
The MCX connector is prone to damage. Ensure that the utmost care is taken when mating and un-
