Hardware Installation Guide 

1) Installing the Rack mount kit (optional) 

This stage is only required if you plan to mount the appliance in a communications rack. The rack mount kit 
includes 2 brackets and 8 screws. 

The brackets are symmetrical and can be installed on either side. See pictures below. 

 

 

 

 

2) Attach WiFi antennas (optional) 

The i-MO appliance is supplied with a WiFi interface. This can be enabled on request at time of order. If the 
WiFi interface is enabled install the two antennas on the aerial connectors numbered 4 and 5 as shown 
below. 

 

 

 

3) Attach 3G/4G antennas and cables 

Up to 3 antennas may be provided dependent upon the number of modems installed. The antennas must be 
mounted outside and as high as possible. The antennas should be spaced at least 1 metre apart from each 
other.
