• Do not mount the VSM unit on a flat surface where the unit could become partially submersed in water.
• The proposed location of the equipment being mounted or wires/cables attached must not interfere with
driver/passenger seating or leg space.
• Select a location such that heat from the unit does not damage any wiring or any other plastic or
heat-sensitive parts of the automobile.
• Use the supplied mounting hardware.
• Leave sufficient space around the VSM unit for air flow and installation.
• Select a location that permits routing the cables as directly as possible.
• Ensure that the cables are not stretched, and not subject to heat from the engine, transmission housing or
heating ducts.
• Crimp connectors securely.
• Do not run cables over sharp edges that may cause excessive wear or chaffing of the cable insulation.
• Do not install components in locations where they may cause interference to the operation of the vehicle's
controls.
2-2
WiMAX VSM Installation Guide
• Only qualified personnel may install communication equipment.
• Ensure secure tightening of cable connectors.
NOTE
Install this product in a vehicle in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer’s guidelines and the instructions detailed in
this manual. Use only the Motorola parts specified in this manual.
Check the required mounting locations. It might be necessary to penetrate the bulkhead to reach the battery.
Before drilling commences, ensure cable clearance on the opposite side of the bulkhead and do not install the
vehicle’s Electronic Control Modules (ECM’s) on the opposite side of the bulkhead. Protect the cable where it
passes through the bulkhead by using a grommet or similar protective measures.
CAUTION
WARNING!
Installing the VSM at the end of the vehicle above the exhaust pipe may cause the VSM to overheat.
VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR BAGS
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including communications
equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If the communication
equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, this could cause serious injury.
If necessary, contact the vehicle manufacturer for air bag information specific to the vehicle.
WARNING!

ABS breaking, traction control, engine management, direction indicators, lights, etc.
WARNING!
Use existing openings through the bulkhead to avoid drilling. If drilling is a must, verify not to
damage the Vehicle Electronic Control Modules (ECM’s), fuel pipes, brake pipes, and/or cable
looms.
WARNING!
For vehicles equipped with electronic braking systems, see “ANTI-SKID BRAKING
PRECAUTIONS”, Motorola publication 68P81109E34.
It is mandatory that modems installed in vehicles fuelled by liquefied petroleum gas conform
to the National Fire Protection Association standard NFPA 58, which applies to vehicles with
a liquid propane (LP) gas container in the trunk or other sealed off space within the interior of
the vehicle. The NFPA 58 requires the following:
(1) The space in which the LP gas container and its fittings are located must be isolated by a
seal from the space containing modem equipment.
(2) Removable (outside) filling connections shall be used.
(3) The container space shall be vented to the outside.

Cables Routing
• Before running a wire or drilling a hole, inspect the vehicle and determine how and where you intend to
mount the antenna, modem, and the input/output device.
• Plan wire and cable routing to provide maximum protection from overheating, battery acid, moving parts and
sharp edges.
• Keep cables away from ignition circuits to reduce noise pickup in the radio equipment.
• Verify that the cables are of sufficient length. Do not connect two short lengths with a connector; doing so
results in signal loss. Refrain from loose excess in the cables, but leave enough slack to allow reconnection if
necessary.
• Do not run cables externally or underneath floor mats.
• Do not locate cables where the driver or passengers can kick them or where they can interfere with operation
of the driver’s foot pedals.
• When routing the cable, refrain from creating sharp bends or kinks.
Drilling Holes
• Where possible, use existing holes in the bulkhead, the trunk wall and the channels above or beneath the
doors. Run cables parallel to existing car cables if appropriate.
• If you must drill holes, verify not to damage other wiring, break lines or gas lines.
