6. Connect a Coaxial Cable
Caution:
Damage may occur if an F-type cable connector
on the GLinq is overtightened. Do not tighten a connector
more than the maximum torque rating of
168 N-cm (16 lb-in).
Note:
Use only threaded male F-type compression coaxial
cable connectors to connect coaxial cable between the
bridge APs.
Note:
It is NOT recommended to use Flex F or push-on
connectors. Always use standard threaded male F-
connectors.
Screw a male coaxial cable connector onto the bridge AP F-
type coaxial connector until it is finger tight. If you are using
a specialized torque wrench, tighten the connector to the
maximum specified torque of:
◆
168 N-cm or 16 lb-in
As the connection is made, check the G.hn port status LED to
be sure the link is valid:
◆
On Green — Port has a valid link.
