3.1.2 Installing the STS Antenna Cable

A 50 Ω coaxial cable with N-type male connectors at both ends is offered by SR Telecom to connect the

STS antenna to its STS. This cable is available in lengths of 16 ft. (5 m), 33 ft. (10 m), 49 ft. (15 m) and

66 ft. (20 m).

Guidelines:

• Ensure that the antenna cable is of sufficient length to connect to the antenna to the STS

• Install clamps or straps every 3 ft. (1 m) to secure the antenna cable to the pole.

• To prevent water damage, seal all outdoor connectors with vulcanized and electrical tape.

SR Telecom recommends that this guideline be followed only after the alignment of the antenna.
