7. Ensure that the cabling of ethernet / power cables and the surge arrestor is proper. See
Connecting the Surge
Arrestor and Ethernet / Power cables
.
8. Ensure that the antennas are grounded properly to the grounding system, satisfying the local electrical code
requirements. See
Grounding the Antennas
.
9. Once the antenna is properly positioned, grounded and the outdoor cable setup is verified, secure all the cables and
use weatherproofing tape to seal all the outdoor connectors. See
Sealing the Cable Connectors
.
10. Make sure that the outdoor antennas at both the ends maintain the same antenna polarizations.
:
For easy outdoor antenna installation, note the following:
•
Go through the
Safety Precautions
.
•
Read all the requirements outlined in this chapter. See
Required Materials
.
•
Familiarize yourself with the antenna and the radio-specific mounting instructions, prior to climbing any roof or
ladder.
•
Verify that you have arranged all safety measures for outdoor installation or rooftop installation. See
Safety
Precautions
.
•
Test all the equipment before beginning the actual rooftop installation, to determine if all the required equipment is
functioning properly.
•
Install the grounding system for the antenna mast, device, and surge arrestor before connecting the cables. This
protects your system against lightning strikes during installation.
•
When you remove or relocate the antenna, verify the
Required Materials
and
Safety Precautions
, before you
restart the installation process, and follow the above steps in exactly the reverse order.
8.2.1 Required Materials
The outdoor installation of the equipment and the antennas, require the following:
•
An outdoor radio unit.

We recommend you to use a coaxial antenna cable (P/N CBL-240-6-RA), that is available with your distributor.
•
Antenna mast or wall bracket for the antenna/device
.
•
A grounding system that meets the local electrical code. See
Grounding the System
.
•
Weatherproofing kit for sealing all the cable connections. See
Sealing the Cable Connectors
.
•
Tools and material to mount the antenna. See
Mounting the Antenna
.
•
Tape or wraps to attach the antenna cable to the mast.
•
Ethernet cable (RJ 45 cable / Cat5e ethernet cable) with waterproof cap.
•
Proper tools for system installation.
•
Ethernet Surge Arrestor and Surge Protector (RF-cable). See
Connecting the Surge Arrestor and Ethernet / Power
cables
.
Ensure that you have acquired all the materials listed above, to begin with the outdoor antenna installation. Refer to the
Quick Installation Guide,
that comes along with your product, for details on mounting the outdoor equipment.
