NEWFOUNDLAND
Installation Instructions
e Newfoundland Emergency Hot spot is a large IP67 case with built-
in antennas that are optimized for the extra thick(3.5mm) plastic used
in industry strength cases. Both sets of LTE and Wi-Fi antennas were
designed for maximum performance even in remote areas where the
cellular infrastructure may have been compromised. Parsec has taken
the unique approach to design all the antennas to t safely into the lid of
the case reducing damage and loss of performance due to hard use. e
Newfoundland is congurable up to a 13 in 1 with up to 2 sets of 4X4
MIMO LTE, 4X4 MIMO WIFI and GPS/GNSS capable of running dual
SIM’s simultaneously. is 5G ready, 600 MHz – 6 GHz antenna is both
portable and IP67 rated.

Router Installation:
Step 1.
Step 2.
Step 3.
Take off the top cover plate by unscrewing the 6 cap nuts using the 5/32 Hex Allen screwdriver. (Figure 1)
Check if the router needs brackets to mount it to the router mount plate. The Cradlepoint AER2200 and E3000 will need
brackets to mount. Use the brackets provided in the kit and assemble them onto the router. (Figure 2)
Zip Tie the surge protector to the router mount base plate. (Figure 3) Connect the AC plug of the surge protector to the
AC adapter on the case. (Figure 4)

Choose the right AC power supply unit for the router and connect it to the router.
Choose four ethernet ports on the router that is going to be used the most. (LAN or WAN) Connect ethernet cords from
the four that are required and connect them to the ports on the case.
(It is recommended to choose at least 1 WAN and 2 LAN)(Figure 9)
Connect the USB adapter. The USB port can either be plugged into the surge protector for charging electronical
devices, or into the router for data transfer. (Figure 9)
Mount the router on the router mount base plate. Match the mount holes on the router to the holes on the router mount
base plate. Fasten the router to the plate using four 1/4-20, 1/4 screws provided in the kit. (Figure 8)
