SAILOR Fleet One

Installation guide

Important notes for placing the antenna

•  When mounting the antenna, make sure you do not block the drainage hole 

in the centre bottom of the antenna.

•  Leave space under the antenna for the antenna cable and connector
•  Make sure the antenna has a free view to as much of the sky as possible.

Installing the SAILOR Fleet One System

1.  Mount the antenna on a mast or on the hull using the enclosed mounting bolts. 

Use the mounting bolts for grounding the antenna to the same ground as the 

terminal.

•  To mount the antenna on a mast, use the mast mount kit available from 

Cobham SATCOM. The mast mount kit fits a 1½” pipe (OD 48.3 mm). 

Instructions are included with the kit.

•  To mount the antenna on the hull, use M6 mounting bolts and mount 

spacers to avoid blocking the drainage hole in the bottom of the antenna. 

The bolts must go 6 to 12 mm into the bushings in the radome. Fasten with 

7 to 8 Nm torque.

2.  Mount the terminal indoors on a flat mounting surface, e.g. on a bulkhead or 

desktop, using four M5 screws of a type suitable for the mounting surface.  

If the mounting surface is used for grounding, make sure that you have a good 

electrical connection between the mounting surface and the terminal chassis. 

Note: If you want to use the cable relief from Cobham SATCOM (Spare part no. 

S-673738A) for the terminal, first remove the two rubber feet at the connector 

end of the terminal. Then mount the cable relief in their place using two M4 x 6 

mm countersunk screws.

3.  Connect the cables as shown in the system configuration drawing (overleaf). 

Power cable

Use the power cable supplied with the SAILOR Fleet One 
System. 

Connect the other end of the power cable to the 

ship power supply . For wire colours in the power cable 

see Connectors, pin allocation and wire colours (overleaf).

 

RF cable (antenna 

cable)

Use the RF cable supplied with the SAILOR Fleet One System to 

connect the antenna to the terminal. Seal the connection at the 

antenna end using the enclosed kit for water protection.

4.  If you are using a cable relief, secure the cables to the cable relief, e.g. using 

cable strips.
