2 Installing Components

This chapter ​describes the specific operational procedures​ for installing ​antennas and SIM card.

2.1 Installing Antennas

The ED-IPC2500 device ​supports 5G and optional Wi-Fi functionality, with ​5G requiring four antennas​ and ​Wi-Fi requiring one antenna. ​Antennas must be installed before operating the device.

Preparation:

Ensure the corresponding antennas have been retrieved from the packaging box. ​When multiple antennas are included, they should be identified by the labels on each antenna.

The ​antenna interfaces​ are located on both ​the rear panel and side panel​ of the device. ​This demonstration will exclusively use the rear panel as an example for explanation.​

  1. Align the corresponding interfaces on both the device and antenna, then ​tighten clockwise​ to ensure a secure connection.

2.2 Installing Nano SIM Card

The ED-IPC2500 device ​with 5G capability requires a SIM card to be installed first​ before utilizing the 5G functionality.

NOTE

Hot-swapping of the SIM card is NOT supported.​

Preparation:

The ​5G Nano SIM card​ to be used has been obtained.

Steps:

  1. Locate the position of the ​Nano SIM card slot on the device side​ as indicated in the diagram below.
