GSM/GPS antenna ports
CAUTION :
Be careful not to accidental swap the GSM and GPS connectors. The device will
not function if the antennas are swapped.
In order to comply with RF exposure requirements, install the antenna so that a
distance minimum of 20 cm can be maintained between the antenna and
persons.
To connect the
FAL-ANT-11
or
FAL-ANT-12
combined GSM/GPS antenna to the FOX3 or FOX3-3G
devices:
Plug the
Bordeaux-
coloured connector of the antenna to the
Bordeaux
coloured connector of the
device.
Plug the
Blue-

To remove the
FAL-ANT-11 or FAL-ANT-12
GSM/GPS antenna from the FOX3 or FOX3-3G devices:
Press down the latches on the antenna connectors and then pull the antennas.
Do not mount the antenna visible on the dashboard but mount it in a location underneath the
dashboard. Hiding the antenna is key to successful security in the event of theft. FOX3-2G/3G/4G
devices generate events in case of the GNSS antenna is connected, disconnected or cut off. If an
intruder cuts off the GNSS antenna cable, an event is generated which can be used to trigger alarm
notifications to the user.

Audio Interface
Only FOX3 and FOX3-3G-AU devices have a 2.5 mm audio female 4pin connector for connecting an
external active SPK/MIC device. If you are going to connect a loudspeaker directly to these devices,
we highly recommended the cable of the loudspeaker or the loudspeaker which is galvanic isolated
from the audio channel of the FOX3/-3G devices. This ensures a properly operation of the
loudspeaker.
