Installing the
Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN)
Fixed Mount Kit
Product description – BGAN fixed mount kit
Although the BGAN satellite modem terminal is designed for portable use, the BGAN Fixed Mount Kit
(HNS part number 3004066-001) allows you to permanently mount the terminal if this option is desired.
The fixed mount kit (Figure 1) consists primarily of a tubular pole mount assembly with mounting brackets
on each end. The base bracket attaches to the roof or other structure, and the terminal bracket attaches to
the BGAN terminal. Power and network cables are also included.
This document describes how to install the BGAN Fixed Mount Kit. It references the BGAN Terminal
User Guide, HNS 3004077-0001, which is provided in PDF format with the terminal on a compact disc
(CD).
