INSTALLATION
Antenna Location and Setup
The Phonecell SX4e comes with a standard spike antenna - See Figure 1. The Phonecell SX4e
comes with a standard spike antenna (TNC). For optimal signal strength, choose an antenna loca-
tion that is above ground and as close to windows (or exterior walls) as possible - See Figure 2.
Cellular signal strength is displayed by the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) LED on the
unit - See the How to Use the LED Status Indicators section of this guide.
1)  Connect the antenna to the SX4e - see Figure 1.
2)  Finger-tighten the antenna; do not over-tighten.
Optional Wall-Mount Installation
After you’ve selected a location and made all the necessary connections and adjustments, your
SX4e is ready for wall-mounting.
1)  To mount the Phonecell SX4e on a wall, mark two hole locations 166 mm (6-17/32 inches) apart.
These hole locations match the mounting hooks on the back of the unit - see Figure 3.
2) Install the screws (not supplied), leaving a gap (approximately 3mm (1/8 inches)) between screw 
head and wall.
3)  Mount the FWT onto the screws - see Figure 4.
Figure 2 - For optimum signal strength, locate the unit
near a window with the antenna pointed upward.
