Apply all-weather silicone sealant (Fig. 7A
—
green line) to the underside of the external cellular
antenna prep plate, around the entire outer lip. Do not leave any gaps in the sealant to ensure a good
seal to the mounting surface.

Thread the opposite ends of the cables through the drilled access hole in the roof. Carefully guide
the coaxial cables through the hole as the external cellular antenna prep plate is gently placed
onto the roof.
11.
After the external cellular antenna prep plate is in place, use four #8 x
3/4”
stainless steel Phillips pan
head screws (Fig. 8A) to secure the external cellular antenna prep plate to the roof. Do not over-tighten
the screws.
NOTE:
The silicone sealant will spread out slightly as the tightening of the screws draw down the external
cellular antenna prep plate.
12.
An additional, continuous bead of all-weather silicone sealant should be placed around the outer lip
of the external cellular antenna prep plate (Fig. 9A
—
green line) and over the four mounting screws to
form a watertight seal. Allow silicone sealant to dry completely.
NOTE: DO NOT
place silicone sealant on the top removeable lid or screws (Fig. 9B) of the external cellular
antenna prep plate. The gasket underneath the lid of the external cellular antenna prep plate
effectively makes the external cellular antenna prep plate waterproof and ready for easy future
installation of the external cellular antenna.
