1 Introduction
This document1describes the hardware of the Cinterion®LTE Terminals. The LTE Terminals
come in five variants depending on the included Cinterion®module:
• ELS61T-US for use in North America and countries with similar radio bands.
• ELS61T-AUS for use in Australia.
• ELS61T-E for use in Europe and countries with similar radio bands.
• ELS61T-E2 for use in Europe and countries with similar radio bands, supporting voice
• ELS31T-V for use in North America in Verizon Wireless Network.
• ELS31T-J for use in Japan.
All LTE Terminals implements an Ethernet interface with a RJ-45 8-pin connector and also a
V.24 / V.28 RS-232 interface with a D-sub 9-pole female socket as well as a 6-pole Western
jack as plug-in power supply connector.
Wherever necessary and appropriate this document distinguishes between these five variants.
Table 1 gives a short overview of the available interfaces for the different LTE Terminals.
The scope of this document includes interface specifications, electrical as well as mechanical
characteristics of the LTE Terminals. It specifies standards pertaining to wireless applications

and outlines requirements that must be adhered to for successful product design. The LTE Ter-
minals are compact GSM/UMTS/LTE modems for the transfer of data in GSM/UMTS/LTE net-
works. Industrial standard interfaces and an integrated SIM card reader allow using the LTE
Terminals easily as GSM/GPRS/UMTS/LTE modems.

1.3.2 Safety Precautions
The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the operation, usage,
service or repair of any cellular terminal or mobile incorporating LTE Terminals. Manufacturers
of the cellular terminal are advised to convey the following safety information to users and op-
erating personnel and incorporate these guidelines into all manuals supplied with the product.
Failure to comply with these precautions violates safety standards of design, manufacture and
intended use of the product. Gemalto M2M GmbH assumes no liability for customer’s failure to
comply with these precautions.
When in hospitals or other health care facilities, observe the restrictions on the use
of mobiles. Switch off the cellular terminal or mobile if to be instructed to do so by
the guidelines posted in sensitive areas. Medical equipment may be sensitive to RF
energy.
The operation of cardiac pacemakers, other implanted medical equipment and
hearing aids can be affected by interference from cellular terminals or mobiles
placed close to the device. If in doubt about potential danger, contact the physician
or the manufacturer of the device to verify that the equipment is properly shielded.
Pacemaker patients are advised to keep their hand-held mobile away from the
pacemaker, while it is on. This personal subgroup always should check the distance
to the mobile.
Switch off the cellular terminal or mobile before boarding an aircraft. Make sure it
cannot be switched on inadvertently. The operation of wireless appliances in an air-
craft is forbidden to prevent interference with communications systems. Failure to
observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or denial of cellular services
to the offender, legal action, or both.
Check the local and actual laws about these themes.
Do not operate the cellular terminal or mobile in the presence of flammable gases
or fumes. Switch off the cellular terminal when you are near petrol stations, fuel
depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress. Operation of
any electrical equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres can constitute a
safety hazard.
Your cellular terminal or mobile receives and transmits radio frequency energy while
switched on. Remember that interference can occur if it is used close to TV sets,
radios, computers or inadequately shielded equipment. Follow any special regula-
tions and always switch off the cellular terminal or mobile wherever forbidden, or
when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger.
Road safety comes first! Do not use a hand-held cellular terminal or mobile while
driving a vehicle unless it is securely mounted in a holder for speakerphone opera-
tion. Before making a call with a hand-held terminal or mobile park the vehicle.
Speakerphones must be installed by qualified personnel. Faulty installation or oper-
ation can constitute a safety hazard.
Check the actual and local laws about these themes.

IMPORTANT!
Cellular terminals or mobiles operate using radio signals and cellular networks. In
that case connections cannot be guaranteed at all times under all conditions. There-
fore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless device for essential communi-
cations, for example emergency calls.
Remember, in order to make calls or receive calls the cellular terminal or mobile
must be switched on in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength.
Some networks do not allow for emergency calls if certain network services or
phone features are in use (e.g. lock functions, fixed dialing etc.). You may need to
deactivate those features before you can make an emergency call.
Some networks require a valid SIM card to be properly inserted in the cellular ter-
minal or mobile.
If a power supply unit is used to supply the device it must meet the demands placed
on SELV circuits in accordance with EN60950. The maximum permissible connec-
tion length between the device and the supply source should not exceed 3m.
According to the guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency energy, an
antenna connected to the FME jack of the device should be placed at least 20cm
away from human bodies.
