6.2 Install GPS/GSM Antenna
GSM ANTENNA QUBE GPS TRACKER GPS ANTENNA
Connect the GSM antenna to the SMA connector which is ‘GSM’ text labeled. The GSM antenna is non-
directional, so you can hide it in any place of the vehicle.
Connect GPS antenna to the GPS connector which is ‘GPS’ labeled. The optimum location for the GPS
antenna is on the roof of the vehicle. The covert and GPS antenna are directional, make sure they are
facing up and lying as flat as possible. Secure them in place with glue or zip ties.
Note: Do not shield or cover the GPS antenna with any objects containing metal.
6.3 Install Microphone and Speaker (Optional)
6.4 Mount the Qube GPS Vehicle Tracker unit
If mounting required, there are 4 screw holes on the Qube GPS Tracker, 2 along either side that
act as fixing points to the vehicle.
