FSC with Remote Modem
In areas where the FSC does not have a direct line-of-site with the modem and the antenna cable is too short it
is necessary to use a remote modem.
1. Extend the Petro-Net cable to position the modem where desired (1,000 feet maximum).
2. Mount the modem in a secure location (or enclosure) and attach the 20-foot antenna cable to the
modem.
3. Route the cable to the remote antenna.
4. Mount the antenna to a pole or suitable surface using the hardware provided.
5. Power the modem by plugging the power supply into a wall outlet.

FSC with Modem-Mounted Antenna (Not Recommended)
The antenna at the FSC can be mounted directly on the modem. This modem must be in the line-of-site with
the antenna at the FIT (i.e. must be near a window).
