It is recognized as cd device (it's called a feature in windows world - it has 
a drivers for the modem to autoinstall it). Ejecting this cd should detach 
umass and attach modem/serial device:
camcontrol eject cd0

I think that adding
product NOVATEL ZEROCD2                0x5020  Novatel ZeroCD
into sys/dev/usb/usbdevs and recompiling kernel may work.

I don't know what the 0x1410 0x6000 device is.
