Walgreens Installation Guide G-1-2002-2B Walgreens Installation Guide 2B.doc Cables uncoiled close to the kick-plate of shelving unit. “Correct Method” “In-correct Method” Cables coiled in center of an aisle are a hazard. “Correct Method” “Be careful when pulling cables around a corner. They can easily snag on the corner of the end cap.” NOTE: It is easier to run this cable if it is uncoiled prior to attempting a pull.
Walgreens Installation Guide G-1-2002-2B Walgreens Installation Guide 2B.doc 4) Begin running the supplied cable through the roof girders as efficiently as possible while utilizing Best Practices. Coaxial cables are easily broken. If you pinch the line or bend it tightly, the innercore will break (the shielding will appear stressed). To ensure this does not happen, it is best to uncoil the cable prior to beginning the cable pull.
Walgreens Installation Guide G-1-2002-2B Walgreens Installation Guide 2B.doc 7) Cables running greater than 110 feet will require an F to F BNC coupling to a second cable. Use ONLY a 25 foot coaxial cable for extension: Tx/ATA antennas can only support cable lengths up to 110 feet. Rx/ARA antennas can only support cable lengths up to 135 feet. Only use the BNC coupling and 25 foot coaxial cable to extend a 110 foot coaxial cable.
