Install SIM Card
Your
Thuraya IP Commander
has two SIM card slots, one designated as
Secondary
and
the other as
Primary
. Both are installed into slots behind a metal plate on the left side of the
Thuraya IP Commander
enclosure, though only the
Primary
SIM card (right-hand slot)
is used at this time. Below are the instructions for installing the SIM card.
