Specification. Use flexible cable (LMR400 preferred) for the short feedline cable between the circulator
and the antenna
2. Using tie wraps, create a service loop of 6 feet at both ends of the RF feedline cable(s). Trim the excess
cable length.
3. Install spiral wraps on the RF feedline cable(s) where necessary to protect it from abrasion.
4. Using marker tie wraps and label sets, label the Reader end of each RF feedline (ex. TX Lane 1 or RX
Lane 1), each antenna RF feedline (ex. Tx lane 1 or Rx lane 1).
5. Attach the N-Type male connector to the antenna end of the RF feedline cable(s) . Firmly crimp the
male connector.
For Mono-Static Operation only
(Not Currently Supported). See Figure 5-3
1. Using a 10in-lb torque wrench, connect the RF feedline cable to the antenna. Using self-amalgamating
tape, wrap the connection to ensure water cannot enter.
2. Attach the N-Type female connector to the Reader end of the feedline cable . Firmly crimp the female
connector.
3. Using a 10in-lb torque wrench, connect the RF feedline from the antenna to the RF adapter cable
(800125-001).
Note: A lightning protector should be installed between the RF adapter cable and the feedline cable.
For Bi-Static Operation Only.
See Figure 5-3
1. Using a 10in-lb torque wrench, connect the first RF feedline cable to the Circulator (Port 1). Using self-
amalgamating tape, wrap the connection to ensure water cannot enter.
2. Using a 10in-lb torque wrench, connect the second RF feedline cable to the Circulator (Port 3). Using
self- amalgamating tape, wrap the connection to ensure water cannot enter.
3. Using a 10in-lb torque wrench, connect a third (3.0 foot long) RF feedline cable to the Circulator (Port 2).
Using self-amalgamating tape, wrap the connection to ensure water cannot enter.
4. Attach the N-Type male connector (322389-032) to the antenna end of the third (3.0 foot long) RF
feedline cable. Firmly crimp the male connector.
5. Using a 10in-lb torque wrench, connect the other end of the third (3.0 foot long) RF feedline cable that is
connected to Port 2 of the Circulator, to the antenna. Using self-amalgamating tape, wrap the connection
to ensure water cannot enter.
6. Attach the N-Type female connector to the reader end of the first RF feedline cable. Firmly crimp the
female connector.
7. Using a 10in-lb torque wrench, connect the other end of the first RF Feedline cable that is connected to
Port 1 of the Circulator, to the RF Adaptor Cable (800125-001), that will be connected to the “Antenna
Port of the MRFMS.
8. Attach the N-Type female connector ) to the reader end of the second RF feedline cable. Firmly crimp
the female connector.
9. Using a 10in-lb torque wrench, connect the other end of the second RF Feedline cable that is connected
to Port 3 of the Circulator, to the RF Adaptor Cable (800125-001), that will be connected to the RX Port
of the MRFMS.
