ODUspe Cable Grounding
Cable ground kits are included in the ODUspe Cable Kits. Installation instructions
are provided in the kits.
For tower/mast installations cable grounds must be installed at:
• The point where the cable comes on to the tower from the ODU.
• The point where it leaves the tower to go to the equipment building.
• Not more than 25 m intervals on the tower if the height on the tower exceeds 50 m.
• A point just prior to building entry.
Figure 3-8 on page 3-16 shows typical tower locations for cable grounding and
lightning surge suppressor.
Ensure the cable grounds are correctly weatherproofed. For instructions, see
Weatherproofing on page 19
.
Until weatherproofed, ensure all moisture is kept away from cable grounds.
At non-standard installations, such as building tops or the sides of buildings, follow
the same general guidelines but where proper grounding points are not provided
these must first be installed. Refer to Aviat Networks’
Best Practices Guide .
NOTE:
The ODU cable assembly includes a ground wire at the ODU end of
the cable, which must be fastened on to the ODU grounding stud,
along with a ground wire to directly ground the ODU to the tower/
mast.
Cable ties Use one UV-resistant cable tie (from the ODU
cable kit) every 600 mm or less, of cable.
Cable grounding Ensure the cable is grounded in accordance with
the instructions provided in
ODUspe Cable
Grounding on page 15
.
Ensure the cable grounds are correctly
weatherproofed. For instructions, see
Weatherproofing on page 19
.
Ice-fall protection Ensure adequate physical protection for the cable
where ice-fall from towers can occur.
