6.3.1 Installation Procedure
In case of device with external antenna,
mount and connect an external antenna to the device in accordance
with the following recommendations:
Mount the antenna according to manufacturer’s instructions;
Connect the ODU V and H N-type interfaces to the antenna with RF coaxial cables and with
appropriate connectors. Use cables not longer than 1 m (3.3ft). Tighten the N-type connectors to a
torque setting of 1.7 Nm (1.3 lb ft);
Form drip loops near the cable ends at the ODU’s side so that water doesn’t creep towards the ODU
connectors;
Weatherproof the N-type connectors (when antenna alignment is complete) using PVC tape and self-
amalgamating rubber tape;
Weatherproof the antenna connectors in the same way (unless the antenna manufacturer specifies a
different method);
Fix the antenna cables to the supporting structure using site approved methods. Ensure that no
undue strain is placed on the ODU or antenna connectors. Ensure that the cables do not flap in the
wind, as flapping cables are prone to damage and induce unwanted vibrations in the supporting
structure.
CAUTION
Before mounting the equipmentin an outdoor environment, please make sure that:
You acknowledge the regulations imposed by the Regulatory Authority for Communications in your
country for the radio spectrum to be used.
You chose known locations for the installation of the links; although InfiNet Wireless devices can
also operate in Near-LoS or Non-LoS conditions, to achieve the best performance, it's highly
recommended to install the link in locations where Clear-Line-of-Site and clear channels are
available.
You performed link planning using the InfiPLANNER tool (

)
to determine the link path profiles, radio equipment placement requirements, etc.
You met requirements described in the section "Planning considerations" - > "Wireless device
