LTE CELL RADIO MODULE
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The 2GIG LTE Cell Radio Module is a snap-in, cellular radio module that
provides the 2GIG Control Panel with the ability to send and receive
two (2) -way voice communicaons with the Central Staon
monitoring the security system. It is designed for use with two (2)
External Cellular Antennas which provides a consistently strong signal
for communicaons.
NOTE: For best performance locate the antenna away from metal.
In addion to providing the Control Panel the ability to transmit
security informaon to online monitoring portals, the cell radio
module allows for delivery of Over-the-Air (OTA) firmware updates to
the Control Panel.
