Iridium Pilot Land Station Installation Guide
The data and handset connections are on the connector edge of the unit. There is one data connection and
three handset connections. The data connection is marked as “data” and the handset connections are identified
as “Voice 1”, “Voice 2” and “Voice 3”.
The user supplied handsets connected to the IDU must be POTS / RJ11 handsets. The data port on the IDU is a
MDI-X port. If the Indoor Unit (IDU) is to be connected to a down-stream port of an Ethernet hub or switch then
the user will need to use a cross-over cable. Again, the data port must be provisioned to connect to the Internet.
The data LED will illuminate green.
Note: The maximum length of the ODU/IDU cable plus the Computer-to-Data port cable shall not exceed 100
meters total length to comply with Ethernet maximum length standards.
To connect external equipment to the IDU:
Note:
In order for the data and handset ports to be active the SIM must be provisioned and placed in the IDU.
1. Connect external equipment to the appropriate port. (e.g.: computers are connected to the data port,
handsets are connected to a port marked “Voice 1, 2 or 3”).
2. Provide external strain relief for cables connected to the IDU.
3. Insert the SIM card and slide the locking tab in place. See Figure 15.
4. Switch ON/OFF switch to ON position. The POWER LED should light green, the STATUS LED should flash red
for a few seconds, then illuminate amber (green with firmware VA012001 and higher). See Figure 16
5. Replace the SIM cover.
SIM Validation
In order to access the Iridium network the IDU must have a valid SIM installed. Upon activation by the Service
Provider, the customer’s SIM will be provisioned with the service level (available bandwidth) and the number of
voice lines available. For example: There are three phone lines available but you choose to only provision one
of them. Upon system activation only one phone line will be available.
Contact the service provider to add or remove voice phone lines. Once the service provider has added or
removed voice lines, the IDU will automatically update the SIM at the next network connection.
Note: If the SIM card is removed or unlocked any voice or data calls will be terminated immediately. The SIM
must be reinserted and locked into position using the locking mechanism on the SIM card holder, and then the
unit must be switched off and back on again to be reactivated.
9. Install Performance Testing
This section will repeat the initial site survey tests done in Section 7.1 in order to validate the final installation
of the equipment and use of the satellite links. The following steps should be followed:
1. Run the SST program again and compare the resulting graphs to the earlier “temporary installation” results.
Retain both sets of results on the computer for future trouble shooting efforts. If the results are greatly
different then contact your service provider or Iridium customer support for additional help.
2. Place a voice call to the same number used in the earlier voice test. Record the subjective results and verify
the voice quality is substantially the same as the previous result.
3. Run the Speed Test tool and verify the uplink and down-link speeds are /- 20% of the provisioned
data speed.
Testing the Voice Service
Connect a handset (user supplied) to the “Voice 1” port on the IDU and place a call.
