Installation Guidelines
Overview of the Indoor Installation
Outdoor Antenna Installation Guide 2-9
The cable should not be installed into tight positions, as bending or
applying excessive force to the connectors may damage the
antenna cable. Always allow the cable to bend naturally around
corners.
The recommended bend radius is 25 mm (1 in.).
The antenna cable must be secured along its complete length. No
part of the antenna cable should be allowed to hang free. This is
particularly important for cable parts that are installed outdoors.
Before
sealing outdoor connectors and permanently securing
cables, verify that the installation is correct and all components
function properly.
CAUTION
!
Antenna cable and cable connectors are not designed to
withstand excessive force:
1. Do not use connectors as cable grips to pull cable
through raceways or conduits.
2. Do not use cable connectors to support the weight of the
cable during or after installation.
3. Do not use tools to tighten connectors (finger-tighten
only).
4. Always seal connectors with waterproof stretch tape.
