Connectorize & Run Cables
Connect all of the RF cables to the surge protectors in the system ground buss bar. An example
of a buss bar connection is shown in Figure 14. Ensure that the proper cable is connected to the
proper surge protector. Connect the power/data cable to its surge protector. Also connect all the
jumper cables to the surge protectors that will attach to the BTS. Do not connect these cables to
the BTS at this time. Torque all the cable connectors to the surge protectors on the system
ground buss bar to 20-24 inch-pounds.

Route all of the cables – RFS (8), CAL, DATA/POWER and GPS (1 or 2) - between the system
ground buss bar and the RFS, and GPS mounting sites. If running the cables up a tower, use a
hoisting grip to lift the cables (Figures 15 and 16).
