4.7 Mount the Remote Antenna (optional)
Two mounting options are available for the remote antenna: screw mount or silicone
mount.
4.7.1 Screw Mount
If mounting a remote antenna the following tools and materials are required:
M4 hardware
Outdoor waterproof adhesive sealant (silicone)
To mount the antenna, follow the steps below.
1.
Find a location for the remote antenna following the guidelines provided in
Section 4.3.1.
2.
Use the antenna as a template to mark the location of the mounting holes.
CAUTION
Cable management and connector strain relief must be
incorporated in the installation. Secure the cable no more
than 15 cm from the antenna enclosure and at regular
intervals along its length as part of the installation to prevent
cable wear and eliminate strain on the terminal connector.
Damage to the mobile device connector interface or cable
may otherwise result leading to hardware failure.
3.
Drill the mounting holes using the drill.
4.
Apply waterproof sealing compound, such as RTV silicone, around the drill holes so
water does not seep into the asset.
CAUTION
Adhesive or silicone cannot block
the air vent features shown
in Figure 35.
