Chapter 2: System hardware Antennas and antenna cabling
• Cable grounding kits: Order one cable grounding kit for each grounding point on the
antenna cables. Refer to Lightning protection unit (LPU) and grounding kit on page 2-35 for
specifications and part numbers.
• Self-amalgamating and PVC tape: Order these items to weatherproof the RF connectors.
• Lightning arrestors: When the connectorized ODU is mounted indoors, lightning arrestors
(not PTP 700 LPUs) are required for protecting the antenna RF cables at building entry. One
arrestor is required per antenna cable. One example of a compatible lightning arrestor is
the Polyphaser LSXL-ME or LSXL (not supplied by Cambium Networks).
FCC and IC approved antennas
For connectorized units operating in the USA or Canada, choose external antennas from Table
15 (4.9 GHz), Table 16 (5.1 GHz – USA only), Table 17 (5.2 GHz), Table 18 (5.4 GHz) or Table 19
(5.8 GHz). These are approved by the FCC for use with the product and are constrained by the
following limits for single- or dual-polarization parabolic dish antennas:
• 4.9 GHz – 37.2 dBi per polarization or antenna.
• 5.1 GHz – 34.5 dBi per polarization or antenna.
• 5.2 GHz – 34.9 dBi per polarization or antenna.
• 5.4 GHz – 34.9 dBi per polarization or antenna.
• 5.8 GHz – 37.7 dBi per polarization or antenna.
Details of the regulatory bands are provided in Table 52 on page 3-21.
Caution
Antennas not included in these tables are strictly prohibited for use with the PTP 700
in the specified bands.
Caution
This radio transmitter (IC certification number 109AO-50650) has been approved by
Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum
permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated.
Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain
indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
Antennes approuvées par la FCC et IC
Pour les unités sans antenne intégrée destinées aux Etats-Unis ou au Canada, choisissez des
antennes externes dans la Table 15 (4.9 GHz), Table 16 (5.1 GHz – Etats-Unis), Table 17
(5.2 GHz), Table 18 (5.4 GHz) ou la Table 19 (5.8 GHz). Celles-ci sont approuvées par la FCC pour
une utilisation avec le produit et sont limitées pour les antennes paraboliques a polarisation
simple ou double comme suit:
• 4.9 GHz – 37.2 dBi par polarisation ou l'antenne.
• 5.1 GHz – 34.5 dBi par polarisation ou l'antenne.
• 5.2 GHz – 34.9 dBi par polarisation ou l'antenne.
