IFL installation.
Cautions:
1. Ensure installation meets all applicable cable codes, including National Electrical Code
(NEC) and local requirements.
2. Do not pull IFL cables using center conductor of the coax. Cable insulation is foam;
pulling by center conductor will damage electrical performance. Use full grip only.
(1) Pull the IFL cables, using good installation practices. Leave 3
meters (10 feet) of cable beyond the antenna post for adequate
service loops. At the indoor end, allow adequate service loop for easy
access and service of the RCST.
(2) At the outdoor end, dress the IFL cables to the antenna mounting
post using one of the tie wraps (included in the installation kit)
positioned 30 cm (12 inches) from the bottom of the post.
(3) Terminate cable ends with connectors to mating connectors on
antenna feed assembly and RCST. Dress cable to the support arm,
using tie wraps.
(4) Use standard self-fusing tape on all outdoor connections as to
ensure a watertight system. Approximately 3 of tape is required per
connection.
