Installation Process Overview
The Globalstar Sat-Fi hardware installation process is very simple:
Install/mount external antenna
Secure Global Sat-Fi Unit to a flat surface area
Connect Sat-Fi unit with external antenna
External Satellite Antenna Installation
The Sat-Fi does not have an internal satellite antenna and the external satellite antenna is necessary for
communication between the satellite and the Globalstar Sat-Fi unit. The single most important
consideration of the Globalstar Sat-Fi installation is the location of the external antenna. The Sat-Fi
external antenna needs a clear and unobstructed view of the sky in all directions. It must be in a position
that minimizes obstructions that block the signal from the satellites and far enough away from other RF
devices to prevent interference.
Your Globalstar Sat-Fi comes with one of the following external antennas, depending upon kit that you
purchased:
