Preparing to Install

Tools and materials

  • Installation handle
  • Ladder
  • Round 4.5mm to 6.5mm Cat6A PoE* cable (RJ45 fittings attached)
  • Smartphone/device for Inseego Mobile App
  • SIM card (4FF Nano)
  • Phillips-head screwdriver
  • M6 4mm hex driver
  • Drill
  • 14mm socket wrench/driver
  • Ground wire
  • Cat6A Ethernet cable
  • Sealing/weatherproofing material

Your FW2010 package includes: FW2010 device, PoE injector, and SIM tool.
NOTE: Mount installation packages are ordered and shipped separately.
*Power over Ethernet

Pre-installation

  1. Unscrew the protective shield over the SIM slots using a Phillips-head screwdriver.

  2. Use the included SIM tool to insert a Nano 4FF SIM card into the appropriate SIM slot. Be careful to not use excessive force.
    NOTE: This device supports only Nano SIM cards.

  3. Reattach the protective shield cover to a torque of 0.49 Nm (0.36 ft/lb), making sure the tether passes through the hole of the rear housing and is not bent or bunched.
    WARNING! If the tether is bunched, it could prevent the compartment from being effectively sealed.

  4. For ease of carrying during the location survey, attach the installation handle* to the back of the device with a Phillips-head screwdriver.

  5. Install the PoE cable:
    NOTE: Make sure your PoE cable wiring is correct (see “PoE RJ45 fitting cable wiring diagram”).
    a. Unscrew the PoE gland cap assembly.
    b. Thread the PoE cable through the sealing cap, clip, and body of the gland assembly.
    *Installation handle sold as an optional accessory.
    c. Screw the body of the gland to the FW2010.
    d. Connect the two parts of the sealing around the cable, then slide the sealing into the gland body.
    e. Slide the clip and the sealing cap along the cable and screw the sealing cap tightly to the gland body. The sealing cap will keep the PoE connection secure and watertight.
    f. Insert the other end of the cable into the PoE injector Data & Power Out port. Plug the PoE injector into an earthed AC outlet.

Location survey

  1. Scan the QR code to download the Inseego Mobile App from Apple Store or Google Play Store, or visit https://inseego.com/inseego-connect-getapp to download the App.
