We also program for you a Rebel activation simcard with the correct Network code info thatiPhone 4S is locked on to so you can use thesimple Learn simcard method to copy the info in to the rebel micro unlock sim and should you not possess an original network simcard of the locked iPhone 4S  then you can use the Rebel activation smart-card as backup already pre cut to micro size.
