Other considerations include mobile usage, which typically implies
vehicular applications. Some of the design implications of mobile
usage include:
Resets
The design must attempt to eliminate modem resets caused by supply
voltage drops while the vehicle is starting. This is very disruptive to the
network link.
Supply Levels and Noise
Special care is required to ensure the modem is not subjected to DC
voltages exceeding specifications. This could create costly damage to
the RF section of the modem. Adhere to the power supply noise
specifications in your design.
Noise
Vehicular installations can be noisy.
Antenna
The antenna must be mounted like any other cellular or land mobile
radio antenna. Usually the vehicle roof provides a good ground plane
unless it is fabricated of non-metallic material such as fibreglass.
Mounting the Boomer II OEM Modem to Your Device
Before using your modem you must:
Mount the Boomer II OEM Modem to your device
