4. Antenna
Installation

The following sections provide antenna installation instructions and
information related to various mounting accessories available from CSI
Wireless.

4.1 Antenna Placement To Optimize

Reception

Selecting an appropriate location for installation of the beacon antenna
will greatly influence the performance of the receiver. The following list
provides some general guidelines for determining the best location for
the antenna:

•

Choose a location at least three feet away from all forms of transmitting
antennas and communication equipment.

•

Ensure that the antenna is as far as possible from all other equipment that
emits

Electromagnetic Interference

(EMI), including DC motors, alternators,

solenoids, radios, power cables, display units, and other electronic devices.

•

If a radar is present, mount the antenna outside the path of the radar beam.

•

Do not locate the antenna where environmental conditions exceed those
specified in Appendix A.

•

Choose a location where the antenna has an open view of the horizon

•

If the antenna includes an internal GPS antenna, ensure that the
hemisphere of sky above the antenna is clear of obstructions.

•

If you are installing the antenna on a vessel, mount the antenna as high as
possible, considering maintenance and accessibility.

•

Ensure that the antenna is lower than the highest metal object on the
vessel to protect against precipitation static and lightning strikes.

When positioning the antenna, the following procedure will help
minimize interference to the beacon receiver.
