Step2
Connect one end of the RF cable to the feeder lightning arrester and the other end to the outdoor

A finished RF cable with a fixed length can be shipped with the AP if ordered. If such an RF cable is
not long enough, you should provide a longer RF cable and an N-type RF connector and prepare
the cable at the site.
z
Distinguish the stickiness of the two sides of waterproof tape. Before wrapping a cable joint, stretch
the waterproof tape so that the width is three quarters of the original one to ensure the tightness.
