External Antennas
An external RF antenna also can be connected to the cradle using the TNC RF connector on the back. FCC regula-
tions require that users of vehicle-mounted antennas must use only antennas authorized for use with the GoBook in
order to meet FCC RF exposure limits. Please contact your organizations’s help desk for a list of approved vehicle-
mounted antennas. For mounting installation and/or mounting instructions for these types of antennas, see the
instructions that accompany each antenna.
RF Antenna Placement
Placement of a vehicle-mounted antenna
1 Measure and identify an area 20 cm (8 inches) in from the edges of the vehicle roof.
2 Place the antenna within that area.
To maximize RF performance, position the antenna in the center of the vehicle roof.
WARNING Improper installation and/or operating configurations of perma-
nent and magnetic vehicle-mounted antennas may cause FCC RF exposure limits
to be exceeded. Vehicle-mounted antennas must be placed at least 20 cm from
operators and bystanders.
