The following diagrams (
1180HFigure 109 & 1181HFigure 110) show this zoning pictorially:
Equipment mounted in Zone A should be capable of carrying the full lightning current.
Mounting of the ODU in Zone A is not recommended. Mounting in Zone A should only be
carried out observing the rules governing installations in Zone A
24F
25
Failure to do so may put
structures, equipment and life at risk.
Equipment mounted in Zone B should be grounded using grounding wire of at least 10 AWG.
This grounding wire should be connected to a grounding rod or the building grounding system
before entry in to building.
The 600 Series bridge ODU grounding point can be found on the bottom of the unit. The 600
Series Bridge is supplied with an appropriate grounding lug for attachment to the ODU.
11.2 Detailed Installation
The recommended components for an installation protected for nearby strikes are:
• Grounding Kits — Andrew Type 223158-2 (
481Hhttp://www.andrew.com UT)
• Screened CAT 5e Cable also known as Shielded CAT 5e or CAT 5e STP (Shielded
Twisted Pair)
• NB: Only use Outdoor rated, gel filled CAT5e if it contains a shield.
• Surge Arrestor: Transtector Type ALPU-ORT - 4 per link (
482Hwww.transtector.com)
• Grounding Stake
• RJ45 screened connectors
• 8 AWG Grounding Cable – Minimum size, preferably 6 or 4
NOTE: There may be a local regulatory requirement to cross bond the CAT 5e cable at
regular intervals to the mast. This may be as frequent as every 10 meters (33 feet)
25
Local regulations may also require the fitting of the 8 AWG ground wire referred below.
