Water-Resistant Wrap
Terrasat recommends applying water-resistant wrap (such as mastic tape) to all
outdoor connectors to prevent water entry and subsequent water damage. Mastic tapes
are designed to flow and self-heal if cut or punctured. When applied spirally with the
proper tension, mastic tapes form a tight continuous coating that permits little or no
moisture absorption or penetration. Terrasat provides water-resistant sealing tape for
Type-F and Type-N connectors.
Apply the mastic tape, as follows:
1. Ensure that all connectors are firmly tightened, dry, and free from all grease, dust,
and dirt.
2. Cut the mastic tape to the desired size. The tape should be long enough to cover the
connector completely.
3. Center the tape on the connector to be sealed and wrap the tape in a tight spiral
around the connector using a 50% overlap. Squeeze the tape tightly and ensure that
both ends of the tape have formed around the connector and the cable without any
gaps.
Apply the tape to all connectors that may be exposed to moisture.
