For installation of a remotely mounted antenna follow the antenna manufacturer’s instructions and 
connect the antenna to the AirHarmony-1000 using the appropriate cables. (Weather-proofed N-type 
Heliax RF cables (ordered separately). 

1.  Attach, connect and secure the RF cable between the external antenna and the appropriate 

RF connection on the top of the unit. 

 

Figure 62: Connecting RF cable 

 

 

Caution:

 Do not over-tighten the RF connector. RF failures can result when the RF 

connector is over-tightened. 

 

Figure 63: Weather-proof the connection 

 

 

 

2.  Weather-proofing of the RF N type connections is recommended. This is done with a layer of 

self-amalgamating tape followed by an over layer of PVC tape. 

Verify the RF connector is completely weather-sealed.
