Routing and terminating coaxial cable(s)

E.

Connect the coaxial cables to antenna and route to equipment, taking care to avoid fouling any moving vehicle 

component. The cables must not be routed in front of any airbag device. 

Commission and test

F.

Check comms cables:

  • Earth continuity: connector body to vehicle ground should measure <0.2Ω;
  • Using a suitable antenna analyser, carry out a VSWR test in each freq. band.
  • The VSWR should comply with values shown in the data sheet.
  • Connect the antenna to the coaxial cable and carry out a system check.

Check GPS cable:

  • Check the GPS cable with DC to measure high resistance. 
  • Connect the GPS cable to the GPS receiver and check for satellite acquisition.
