SPAC-AS-MSV220 Antenna Pole Mount Installation
The Pole Mount is made of stainless steel. The antenna is placed on the triangular top and
the pole fixed using the U-clamps. (To a short mast or similar)
First mount the antenna on top of the pole with (3) three pcs. M6x50 mm bolts. The (6) six
pcs. nylon washers are used just below and above the antenna “legs”
The 44 mm U-clamps are placed around the pole mount, leaving the 50 mm U-clamps for
the mast. Small tolerances in the mast diameter can be compensated by simply bending the
U-clamps slightly.
When installing the antenna cable, it is important to protect against moisture – using self
amalgating tape, or similar, wrapped around the coaxial connector. Also be careful with the
cable run from the antenna and secure it at short intervals. An unsupported length of cable
will vibrate in strong winds and could negatively affect the connection over time.
