Laying Out and Installing an Elliptical Waveguide

•Do not twist an elliptical waveguide. To change the direction of a plane, bend it twice.
•Route an elliptical waveguide as planned and use clamps to fix it every 1 m (3.28 ft).
In dual-polarization configuration scenarios, the elliptical waveguides in the vertical and horizontal polarization directions must
be laid out along the same path, and their length difference must be less than or equal to 6 m (19.68 ft).
•The two ends of the elliptical waveguide are straightly routed for at least 50 cm ( 20 in )
before they are bent.
