PE100A

3.9 Installing antennas (optional)

You may install antennas to the five (5) antenna jacks located on the front

and rear panels. The installed antennas can be connected to an LTE card

installed in the Mini PCIe/mSATA slot (bottom side) or to a wireless card

installed in the M.2 Wi-Fi slot (top side).

NOTE:

• It is recommended that you install the antennas connected to the

LTE card to the front panel and the antennas connected to the

wireless card to the rear panel (see below diagram).

• LTE antennas are flatter and slightly longer than the Wi-Fi and GPS

antennas.

• GPS antennas look the same as Wi-Fi antennas but are clearly

labeled as GPS.
