Antenna Installation Precautions
6
•
Place the antenna at the highest point possible
and ensure that there aren’t any surrounding
obstructions to the antenna.
•
In order to avoid communication interference,
ensure that the antenna is placed at least 0.5m
away from other antennas and metal objects.
•
Avoid installing the antenna near a chimney, as
the smoke and soot emitted by the chimney can
obstruct the signal level achieved by the antenna.
•
Install the antenna away from heat sources and
flammable gases.
Cable Routing
7
• Avoid wrapping the cables around the pole.
Route the antenna cables straight down the inside
of the pole to avoid using extra equipment such
as cable ties.
• Use the minimum cable length required. Do not
run more cable than needed to ensure minimum
cable losses are achieved.
• Never pull on the cable connectors; pull only on
the cable ensuring the cable is not under tension.
• The allowable cable bend radius is 30mm.
• Cover connector with insulation tape before
threading them through a hole.
