Connecting the antenna
Antenna baseplate
There are two types of antenna baseplate that can be fitted to your Rayma-
rine TV System. the types are:
• 2 RF port connectors.
• 4 RF port connectors.
Which type is fitted depends on your area of operation and the antenna
model. The models are:
Raymarine 45STV system
All antennas are fitted with a 2 RF port connector baseplate.
Raymarine 60STV system
Regions with circular polarization
North America, South America (DirecTV) - 2 RF port connectors.
Regions with linear polarization
Europe and Middle East - 4 RF port connectors.
Australia, China, and New Zealand - 2 RF port connectors.
To connect the antenna
1. Pass the power/data cable through the access hole of the mounting
plate and connect it to the power/data connector on the antenna base
plate.
Note: It is good practice to coat the threads of all connector s with a small
amount of a suitable waterproof marine sealant prior to securing them.
2. Hand tighten the power/data cable connector. Take care not to over-
tighten the nut, as this will damage the connector.
3. Remove the protective cap from the RF 1 connector.
4. Connect the RF cable to the RF 1 connector and secure using a 13 mm
spanner.Take care not to over-tighten the nut, as this will damage the
connector.
Note:
The base plate connectors must be suitably protected from water in-
gress when the antenna unit is installed on an open structure, e.g. a tuna tower.
