Ethernet Traffic LED to ensure data transmission is taking place. This LED flashes as
data traffic passes between the end-user’s PC and the MMT9000
2.3.4 Locating the MMT9000 Antenna
Mobile Antenna
The mobile antennas for the MMT9000 should be mounted on the top of the vehicle or in the
middle of the trunk lid. These locations provide good unobstructed locations that are at least
20 cm away from people. WaveRider also recommends that the MMT9000 antenna be
mounted away from other radio system antennas to reduce possible interference between
systems.
These guidelines apply to both fixed and magnetic mount mobile antennas. The magnetic
mount antennas are intended to be put into position when the vehicle has stopped. The
magnet may not hold when the vehicle is moving
.
Figure 6 Possible Locations for MMT9000 Mobile Antenna
Panel Antenna
The MMT9000 panel antenna is intended for outdoor installation, either in a permanent or
semi-permanent (e.g. on the top of a mobile command centre vehicle that is usually left in
place for many hours or days). The major difference is that the antenna in a semi-permanent
location must be re-adjusted for each new location.
