APC Mach 5 V3 Mounting
The APC Mach 5 V3 unit can be mounted on the poles or on the wall. The mounting instructions are
provided in the following sections.
Mounting on a Pole
The APC Mach 5 V3 units are supplied with mounting hardware for pole with diameters in the range
25mm (1”) to 76mm (3”) installations. Follow the steps for APC Mach 5 V3 installation on a pole:
Step 1.
Make sure that the APC Mach 5 V3 unit is powered-off.
Step 2.
Ground the APC Mach 5 V3 unit. The unit must be properly grounded to protect against
lightning. The grounding wire must be attached to the grounding stud on the unit (refer
at the
Figure 2
– General View of the APC Mach 5 V3
Unit).
If the unit is attached to a metal pole which is earth-grounded, no further grounding is
required.
Step 3.
Connect
the unit to the bracket together and
tighten up
with the screws:
It is recommended not to tighten
the unit’s mounting bracket details until the alignment
process of the antenna is complete.
