SX5T Location and Installation
The SX5T comes with a standard spike antenna (TNC)
- see Figure 7
. For optimal signal strength,
choose a location that is above ground and as close to windows (or exterior walls) as possible
- see
Figure 8
. Place the unit where you receive the best signal strength possible. (Cellular signal strength
is displayed by the Received Signal Strength Indicator [RSSI] LEDs on the unit - see
LED Status
Indicators
on page 6 for more information.)
