This important Product Information and Safety Guide contains safety, handling, disposal, regulatory, trademark, copyright, and software licensing information. Read all safety information
below and operating instructions before using the IBR600 device to avoid injury.
SAFETY AND HAZARDS Under no circumstances should the IBR600 device be used in any areas (a) where blasting is in progress, (b) where explosive atmospheres may be
present, or (c) that are near (i) medical or life support equipment, or (ii) any equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the IBR600 device
MUST BE POWERED OFF AT ALL TIMES (since the device otherwise could transmit signals that might interfere with such equipment). In addition, under no circumstances should the
IBR600 device be used in any aircraft, regardless of whether the aircraft is on the ground or in flight. In any aircraft, the IBR600 device MUST BE POWERED OFF AT ALL TIMES
(since the device otherwise could transmit signals that might interfere with various onboard systems on such aircraft). Furthermore, under no circumstances should the IBR600
device be used by the driver or operator of any vehicle. Such use of the device will detract from the driver’s or operator’s control of that vehicle. In some jurisdictions, use of the
IBR600 device while driving or operating a vehicle constitutes a civil and/or criminal offense.
Due to the nature of wireless communications, transmission and reception of data by the IBR600 device can never be guaranteed, and it is possible that data communicated or
transmitted wirelessly may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., contain errors), or totally lost. The IBR600 device is not intended for, and CradlePoint recommends the device not be used in
any critical applications where failure to transmit or receive data could result in property damage or loss or personal injury of any kind (including death) to the user or to any other
party. CradlePoint expressly disclaims liability for damages of any kind resulting from: (a) delays, errors, or losses of any data transmitted or received using the device; or (b) any
failure of the device to transmit or receive such data.
Warning: This product is only to be installed by qualified personnel!
To comply with FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to RF radiation, for the IBR600E the maximum antenna gain must not exceed 5 dBi in
the cellular band and 3 dBi in the PCS band. For the IBR600LE the maximum antenna gain must not exceed 8 dBi in the cellular band, 3 dBi in the PCS band and 10 dBi in the LTE
band. For the IBR600LP the maximum antenna gain including cable loss must not exceed 7.5 dBi in the cellular band, 3 dBi in the PCS band, 5.5 dBi in LTE Band 4, and 9 dBi in
LTE Band 17.
FEDERAL COMMUNICATION COMMISSION INTERFERENCE STATEMENT This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC CAUTION: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

FIRMWARE UPDATES
CradlePoint regularly makes new feature support and performance enhancements
available for our products in a software package called “firmware”. Updating firmware
ensures your IBR600 is ready for today and tomorrow’s technology.
To Update Your Firmware, Follow The Steps Below:
Mounting Bracket
ACTIVATE YOUR MODEM
A wireless broadband data plan must be added to your IBR600. Wireless broadband data plans are
available from wireless carriers such as Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, and Clearwire. Mobile broadband, M2M,
and Router pricing plans are available. To add or transfer a line of service you will need to provide a
unique identifier such as ESN for 3G EVDO modems or IMEI/MEID for LTE or HSPA+ modems. LTE and
HSPA+ plans require a SIM. SIM provisioning for LTE and HSPA+ models is done the same way as for
USB modems. Once provisioned insert the SIM into the router until it clicks into place, close the SIM
door, and turn on the power switch. After adding a data plan to the Verizon 3G EVDO model the modem
may need to be activated. Log in to the IBR600 administration pages (see below) and select Internet
from the top navigation bar and then Connection Manager from the dropdown menu. Find and select
the CradlePoint “EVDO Modem” and click Control and then click Activate. When modem activation is
complete, confirm the modem LED is solid green on the router.
For more information on activation see www.cradlepoint.com/activation.
