Both 10001511 adapters are made from anodized aluminum for excellent 
performance in environmentally hostile installations. 
 
Synergy Systems, LLC supplies Extension Cables for any length up to 1 kilometer.  
Bulkhead connectors are also available. When requesting a quote, please indicate 
whether the cable must be UV tolerant for outdoor use or fire retardant for indoor 
cable runs.   
 
For Long-term, watertight integrity the interface between the Binder connector at the 
base of the GSynQ Antenna and that of the connector on the interface cable should 
be protected with a length of dual-wall shrink tubing. The adhesive on the inside of 
the tubing will provide a water-tight seal for the connector interface.

 

 
Most GSynQ installations require the antenna be co-located with a cellular base 
station or other high power transmitter. A careful installation will place the GSynQ in 
an area with minimum RF field strength. This can be accomplished by obtaining the 
radiation patterns of the transmitting antennas and installing the GSynQ where 
signal strength is at a minimum. The Antenna is designed to filter out unwanted 
frequencies, however it is still prudent  to install the GSynQ as far away as possible 
from transmitting antennas. This will minimize the effects of possible harmonics that 
may be within the pass-band of the M12M and Antenna modules.  
 
Several industry standards exist for lightning protection which is not addressed in 
this User’s guide. However, it is recommended that the GSynQ be installed in an 
area so that it is not at the highest point, and so that any lightning rods are well 
above the antenna itself. Although it is not possible for the GSynQ to survive a direct 
strike, it is possible for the GSynQ to survive the secondary effects of lightning due 
to the internal 600W transient suppressors on each of the interface wires.
