4. Connect to a Power Source.

The CradlePoint CBA750 Mobile Broadband Adapter Series can be powered by the provided power supply
(12 volt wall adapter) or Power-over-Ethernet (48v PoE). If your network equipment provides PoE then the
wall adapter is not needed.

When you turn the power switch to the ON position, watch for the modem LEDs to illuminate. When the LED
is a solid green light, this indicates that the modem is properly connected and active.

5. Connect to a Router or Computer.

Ensure that the CBA750 Ethernet LED indicates a connected Ethernet device is present and active.
Configure your router to use the CBA750 as the primary Internet connection or failover data
connection when the main router loses Internet connection.

6. Use.

For most users, the CBA750 can be used immediately without any special configuration.

Should you need to make configuration changes, see page 13 for steps to configure your adapter.

If you connect the CBA750 to a switch, you will need to configure the CBA750 to bind to the MAC address of a
router connected via the switch.
