Step G. Connecting to a network
The fixed mount kit includes two 30-m RJ-45 cables for Ethernet or integrated services digital network
(ISDN) connectivity. You can also use a wireless LAN (WLAN) connection, depending on the distance
from the computer and potential interference. For details, see the BGAN Terminal User Guide.
Step H. Connecting power
1. Use the provided 30-m extension power cable between the terminal and the AC/DC adapter power
provided with the terminal. Connect the adapter to a power outlet.
2. If you install the terminal where temperatures may be extreme, remove the battery to prevent damage.
The battery is needed only for portable use.
If you want to use power from a compatible solar panel, refer to the BGAN Terminal User Guide.
Step I. Pointing the BGAN terminal
The terminal includes an integrated antenna. For optimum performance, the terminal must be accurately
pointed at the satellite. The instructions in this section explain how to mechanically adjust the terminal’s
elevation angle and azimuth. These adjustments are required for pointing. To point the terminal, refer to
the BGAN Terminal User Guide. See the information on antenna pointing. The terminal must be powered
ON for pointing.
To adjust elevation, refer to Figure 8:
1. Loosen the two bolts in the curved slots on the
terminal bracket.
2. Read the elevation angle from the elevation scale on
the terminal bracket, using the red edge on the pole
collar as the angle indicator. View this edge through
the curved slot on the terminal bracket.
3. Pivot the terminal on the pole to obtain the desired
elevation angle.
