Installing or Swapping a Physical SIM Card

The following are the reasons for installing a physical SIM (pSIM) card.

• A new pSIM card is installed on a new device.
• A new pSIM card is installed into an existing device.
• An existing pSIM card is swapped into a new device.

Use the following steps to install a pSIM card into your Cox-approved device.

Power down your device before removing the pSIM card tray.

From the pSIM card tray, insert the pSIM tray ejector pin into the open hole on the card tray.

Pull out the pSIM card tray.
 

Note: The image displayed may not look exactly like the tray for the device you are using. Refer to Cox Mobile Devices for device-specific details.
 

Remove the pSIM from the punch card. Cox Mobile uses the Nano SIM card which is the smallest size.
 

Determine if you are performing a pSIM replacement or swap.

• A pSIM replacement is when you are installing a new pSIM card either into a new or existing device.
• A pSIM swap is when you are moving an existing pSIM card from an existing device to a new device.

Note: When installing a pSIM card, always have the gold contacts down.
 

Insert the pSIM tray back into the phone and power it on.
