Installation checklist
To help ensure a successful installation, pay careful attention to the items listed in
the checklist below as you install the satellite router, antenna, and IFL cables.
IFL cables
For specific cable information see Table 3 on page 20.
Use only Hughes-approved cables.
Do not exceed maximum length for the ODU type (1 W or 2 W), cable
type, and cable part number.
Do not exceed the cable bend radius.
Properly terminate cables.
Connectors and connections
Use only connector types approved for cable type used. Check all
connections for tightness.
Outdoors :
Make sure F connectors connected to the radio assembly are tightened
to 20 inch-lb torque.
Carefully follow waterproofing procedures, using dielectric grease and
Hughes-approved weatherproof tape.
Power source
Check AC power outlet for correct wiring
Before connecting the router power supply to the AC power source
(using a surge protector), use an AC outlet tester to verify that the outlet
is wired correctly. Wiring problems may include:
•
Hot and neutral wires reversed
•
Neutral and ground wires reversed
•
Open ground (incomplete connection)
•
Open neutral
If the outlet is wired improperly, notify the customer you are not permitted to
connect the system to a faulty outlet. Do not proceed with installation until a
properly wired outlet is provided.
