3.3 Important Points to Remember
•
Do not cover the weep holes on the antennas. Doing so can restrict the release of
condensation from the antennas.
•
Proper weatherproofing is not a fast process. Set aside ample time to complete the
steps outlined below.
•
When wrapping, make each layer of tape as flat as possible. Wrinkles and folds in
the tape create places for water and moisture to gather.
3.4 Weatherproofing Antennas Connected Directly to the MSR4000
First Wrapping of Tape
Note
The following instructions assume that you have installed a lightning arrestor between
your router and the antennas.
1. Before wrapping the antennas, locate the weep holes ( Figure 3-1 ). Weep holes allow
condensation that has built up inside the antenna to escape.
2. Prepare the antenna connector and the lightning arrestor by cleaning and drying it.
3. Cut a 4” (100 mm) strip of electrical tape from the roll. Pre-cutting the tape into strips
makes it easier to maneuver the tape around the antennas and other components of the
router’s case.
4. Beginning at the antenna connector on the router and stopping three-quarters of the
length of the antenna connector, tightly wrap the connection with a layer of the 3/4”
(19mm) electrical tape. Overlap the tape to a half-width.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the wrapping extends all the way to the router’s case.
