9. Use a torque wrench with a 5/32 inch tamper-resistant hex drive bit set to 18 inch-pounds to tighten all
screws evenly.
10. Connect all antenna cables to the proper external antennas/surge protection equipment.
The connections are typically N-type and require a 13/16 inch open ended wrench.
Tighten connections snugly. Do not overtighten.
This procedure is complete. Go to Understanding the module installation process
on page 104.
WARNING
If access panels screws are not tightened with the correct torque,
electronic interface may occur causing equipment malfunction.
CAUTION
All external antenna cables exiting the Rox System cabinet seal
must be connected to an external surge suppression system, even
if the cables are not used. Failure to connect unused cables to a
surge suppression system leaves them open to lightning strikes,
which could damage the IP-RN 8000.
