Turning the Mobile Hotspot ON/OFF

• To turn ON: Press and hold the Power button for four seconds.
• To turn OFF: Press and hold the Power button for three seconds. • To wake up the display: Press and release the Power button.

LED Status Indicator

The Sonim MegaConnect has a white status LED to indicate that the device is turned on. When the device is powered on, the LED will turn on for one second and turn off for five seconds. This provides the user with an indication that the device is on, without requiring the display to be turned on. The LED will continue to blink while the user has devices connected to the Sonim MegaConnect. If no devices are connected to the Sonim MegaConnect, the device will enter deep-sleep mode to conserve battery life. When the device is in deep-sleep mode, the LED will not blink. The LED will resume blinking once the user takes the unit out of deep-sleep mode by briefly pressing the power button.

Setting Up a Wi-Fi Connection

1. Turn on the Sonim MegaConnect by pressing the power button for four seconds.
2. Open the Wi-Fi application or controls on your laptop or Wi-Fi-enabled device that you want to connect to your Sonim MegaConnect. Note that when the MegaConnect first powers on or comes out of sleep mode, it may take a few seconds for the Wi-Fi to become active.
3. Find your Sonim MegaConnect's Wi-Fi name (SSID). There are three Wi-Fi names (SSID) in your Sonim MegaConnect:

a. Primary Network (2.4GHz); b. Primary Network (5GHz); and c. Guest Network

1. Enter the password to connect to any of the available SSIDs for Internet access. The password is seen on the MegaConnect's screen when viewing the Wi-Fi name.

Note that the Guest Network may be turned off by default.

NOTE: The Wi-Fi names (SSIDs) and password appear on the screen (under Wi-Fi Info). It is recommended that you connect to the Primary Wi-Fi. Guest Wi-Fi should be enabled first using Menu > Wi-Fi > Wi-Fi Configuration.

External Antennas

While the MegaConnect features robust internal antennas, external antenna ports are also available to enhance performance if the use case requires it. There are two cellular ports, one High Power port and one GPS port.

1. Cell Port 1 (Cel 1)
2. GPS (GPS)
3. High Power (HPUE)
4. Cell Port 2 (Cel 2)

The Cel 1 and Cel 2 ports provide access to cellular bands, allowing both transmission and reception. The GPS port offers access to support GPS location services. The HPUE port provides dedicated access to the B14 transmit antenna. These external antennas can be used in a number of use cases (in-vehicle and fixed location applications). In order to meet FCC limits, the following table provides the maximum allowed gain for each band of operation. Additionally, the user should ensure that an installation with external antennas provides at least 23cm separation between the external antennas and any user.

WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

WARNING!

Data can occasionally be lost or delayed due to the properties of wireless transmission and reception.

Data loss can occur due to variations in radio signal strength resulting from changes in the characteristics of the radio transmission path. Although data loss is rare, the environment in which you operate the modem may adversely affect communications.

Variations in radio signal strength are referred to as Fading, caused by several factors, including signal reflection, the ionosphere, and interference from other radio channels. SONIM® or its partners will not be held responsible for damages of any kind resulting from the delays or errors in data transmitted or received with the Mobile Hotspot device or failure of the Sonim MegaConnect Mobile Hotspot device to send or receive such data.

HAZARDOUS LOCATION USAGE

Do not operate the Mobile Hotspot in an environment that might be susceptible to radio interference, resulting in danger. Specifically:

Do not operate your device under the following conditions.

• In areas where blasting is in progress • Where explosive atmospheres may be present • Near medical equipment - Near life support equipment, or any equipment that may be susceptible to any form of radio interference.

In such areas, your device MUST BE POWERED OFF. Your device can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment. Some airlines may permit the use of mobile hotspots while the aircraft is on the ground. When using your device on an airplane, follow the airline's instructions and either power your device off or put the mobile hotspot in Airplane Mode as directed. When the aircraft is in the air, your device MUST be powered off or placed in Airplane Mode. Your device can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems.

The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate the device while in control of a vehicle. Doing so will distract the driver or operator from controlling and operating the vehicle. In some jurisdictions, operating such communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an offense.

FCC SAR WARNING

This device with FCC ID: WYPH700B meets the government's requirements for exposure to radio waves.

This mobile hotspot is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government:

- The exposure standard for wireless mobile hotspots employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions (10mm) accepted by the FCC, with the mobile hotspot transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The SAR guideline includes a considerable safety margin, designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

- The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model mobile hotspot with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information for this model mobile hotspot is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of https://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid. Enter WYP for the Grantee code and H700B for the Product code on the FCC ID Search Form.

FCC STATEMENT

This product complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This product may not cause harmful interference.
2. This product must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

NOTE:

This product has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, as specified in Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This product generates and can radiate radio frequency energy. If not installed and used according to the instructions, it may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this product does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the product off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver. • Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Sonim or the manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by unauthorized modifications to this product. Such changes could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

Data transmission is always initiated by software, passed down through the MAC, digital and analog baseband, and finally to the RF chip. The MAC initiates several special packets; the only way the digital baseband portion will turn on the RF transmitter, which then turns off at the end of the packet. Therefore, the transmitter will be on only while one of the packets mentioned above is being transmitted. In other words, this device automatically discontinues transmission in case of either the absence of information to transmit or operational failure.
