Iridium Pilot Land Station Installation Guide
Note: The mounting configuration may vary depending on the factors discussed (e.g.: location, pole selection).
When mounting the bracket ensure:
• The M10 bolts have 15 – 20 mm thread engagement into the ODU.
• ODU / IDU cable can be connected to the connector in the center of the ODU.
• The ground cable is long enough to connect to the ground connection.

3. Ensure the ground cable is installed to the ground source at the installation location.
NOTICE: Install ground cables for both the ODU and IDU before using Pilot Land Station. Instructions on how
to install the ground cables are provided in Section 8 and Appendix E of this Installation Guide. Failure to
properly ground the ODU and the IDU could result in property damage in the case of a lightning strike or other
excessive static build-up.
Install the ground cable using the components in the ground cable adapter kit. Silicone grease or joint
compound should be applied between all contact surfaces, and an impervious coating should then be applied
over the whole joint to exclude moisture from all metal surfaces, e.g. using self-amalgamating tape or a shrink-fit
rubber boot (user supplied). Install the M10 Serrated Lock Washer onto the ground bolt, followed by the ground
cable terminal end, then the other M10 Serrated Lock Washer and then complete with the M10 Flat Washer (See
Figure 12). Torque the bolt to 10-12 ft/lbs.
4. Install cable ties for strain relief for the ODU/IDU cable and ground cable (earth strap).
