unit’s secondary cellular antenna. It is highly recommended to use the secondary antenna for diversity. In 

most circumstances, dual antennas will provide improved signal strength thus better performance.

5. 

Secondary Wi-Fi (WLAN) Antenna Connector (Wi-Fi models only) - This TNC male connector is used to 

connect the unit’s secondary Wi-Fi antenna.  

6.  9-36VDC - This M12 socket is used to connect the unit to an alternative 9-36VDC power supply (not 

supplied) using the supplied fused power cable. This cable also contains two programmable GPIO signal 

lines. 

7. 

SERIAL - This M12 port provides an asynchronous RS232 serial port which may be used to connect the 

unit to a compatible serial device. This is a DCE serial port and allows CLI access to the device by default; 

the baud rate is 115200.  

8.  LAN - These M12 ports are used to connect the unit to a 10/100 base-T LAN. These ports are auto-

sensing for speed and wiring (straight-through or cross-over).
