    33 Install the SIM on the backside of the modem, the bracket slides then opens like a book.  Pads on the SIM face contacts on the carrier, close then slide to lock in place.  Attach your antennas, the modem PCB is labeled next to the U.FL connectors, look for the box labeled "CON1" (a jewelers loop may be required to read).

    35 Connect the board to your Gateworks SBC, preferably in a modem designated slot.
    36 
    37 Configure your SBC with the latest Ubuntu image (in the example Newport-Focal was used).
