Installing a Connectorized Radio 

Cambium recommends to assemble the antenna and connectorized device prior to field deployment. To install 
the connectorized radio, GPS antenna, and cabling, proceed as follows: 

1  Depress the retaining clip, then remove the bottom cover of the connectorized device. 

 

 

2  Remove the knockouts from the bottom shell cover for GPS, Ethernet, and grounding cable routing.  

Remove any remaining plastic burrs which may damage cabling. 

             

 

3  With a Philips screwdriver, remove the GPS cover (2 screws), radio protective cover and radio mounting 

bracket (4 screws) to prepare the antenna for GPS antenna mounting
