A pair of RF cables are provided to connect the RDL-2000 to the antenna system. Both
ends of the RF cables must be weatherproofed. This section describes how to connect
the RF cables and the recommended weatherproofing procedures.
: Outdoor Cable Assembly
Redline does not endorse or support the use of outdoor cable assemblies: i) not
supplied by Redline, ii) third-party products that do not meet Redline's cable and
connector assembly specifications, or iii) cables not installed and weatherproofed as
specified in this manual. Redline warranty and service obligations will be voided under
the conditions listed above. Refer to the Redline Limited Standard Warranty and
RedCare service agreements for details.
4.3.1 RF Ports
The RF ports (2x female TNC connectors) are used to conduct RF signals between the
RDL-2000 and the antenna system. Refer to Figure 10: Installation - RDL-2000 RF Ports
for the port locations.
RF Port 0: This port is always active. Use RF Port 0 when deploying a SISO (single
antenna) system.
RF Port 1: This port is activated when MIMO operation is enabled in the system
configuration.
Figure 10: Installation - RDL-2000 RF Ports
Note: When deploying a MIMO system, it is not required to match the antenna
connections (

between the antenna systems at each end of the
wireless link.
