SECTION 1: OVERVIEW

Product Description
The M64700G25 Mobile Radio works within a frequency range of 794-806 MHz and requires a 1/4-wavelength
antenna.
The IPSeries High Speed Mobile Radios are intelligent devices designed for the challenging requirements
of mobile data applications. Mounted in vehicles, other intelligent devices may connect to the serial or
Ethernet ports for connectivity back to the Internet Protocol Network Controller (IPNC) and other such
servers. It provides the mobile link to land-based wired networks. The high speed mobile radio circuit
boards are built using surface mount technology (SMT) and through-hole components.
Figure 1: IPSeries High Speed Mobile Radio (Front View)
Product Functionality
The high speed mobile radio utilizes a high-performance, 32-level QAM. Further it uses state-of-the-art
OFDM technique. This new technique will enable the high speed mobile radio to transmit and receive
more than 100 Kbps data in a 25 kHz band. The high speed mobile radio features low power
consumption, high performance integrated GPS receiver. Embedding this technology in the mobile radio
lowers the cost of acquiring GPS data from vehicles and ensures optimal performance.
The high speed mobile radio technology includes Diversity Reception (DR) capability. DR reduces the
effects of fades in a multi-path environment. With the use of two (2) antennas mounted at a calculated
distance on the roof of the vehicle the Diversity Reception System (DRS) minimizes the effects of fading
by intelligently selecting the receiver with a better signal.
Diversity is most effective when the vehicle is in motion.

aTo prevent personal injury and vehicle damage, exercise extreme caution throughout the
installation process and follow the reminders listed below.
Follow safety precautions for handling wiring, tools, and a vehicle’s engine.
Handle the vehicle’s battery with extreme caution to avoid burns.
Do not alter the components listed in the Installation Requirements section below, unless
substitutions are noted within this chapter.
Once the antennas are installed, as directed within this user manual, all persons must
maintain a distance of no less than 39 inches from the antennas while the high speed mobile
radio is in the transmit mode.

Installation Instructions
Pre-Installation Guidelines
Prior to installing new equipment, perform the following steps:
a1. Remove existing equipment and all related components to include stock clips on radio
wiring harness and antenna.
2. As shown in the figure below, mounting of the high speed mobile radio, delay timer, relay,
and EMI filter (noise filter) will take place in the trunk compartment, unless installing in a
vehicle without a trunk.
Figure 4: Trunk Compartment Installation
Removal of seats, rubber mats, and other obstructions from inside the driver compartment may
be necessary to facilitate routing of wires to the engine and trunk compartments.
3. To ensure appropriate cable and wire routing, exercise the following precautions:
Route cables away from sharp edges that can penetrate cable insulation and damage
wires.
Protect wires with silicone rubber grommets when routing through the engine
compartment firewall or through other holes with sharp edges.
Use high-quality electrical tape when covering exposed wires in the engine
compartment.
Avoid routing cables through areas exposed to extreme heat, such as the exhaust.
Keep wires routed through the engine compartment away from hot and/or moving
parts.

SECTION 3: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
M64700G25-FCCRpt.doc Page 9
4. Prior to drilling holes in the engine compartment firewall, inspect both sides to avoid
obstructions.
5. For grounding point, use the engine block or the negative (-) terminal of the vehicle battery.
Ground connection surfaces must be free of paint, rust, and other corrosion to maximize
performance and avoid damage. Do not tie to the vehicle chassis.
6. To simplify troubleshooting problems, label all connecting points and wires.
Mounting the High Speed Mobile Radio
To mount the high speed mobile radio, perform the following steps:
Step 1 As shown in the figure below, secure the high speed mobile radio into the trunk
compartment. Insert four (4) sheet metal screws in the high speed mobile radio
brackets.
Figure 5: High Speed Mobile Radio Mounting
aIf less than four (4) screws are used, the high speed mobile radio can become loose in the trunk
compartment. This may cause the high speed mobile radio not to function properly.
When inserting screws, be careful not to disturb the vehicle’s gas tank.
