Appendix C: Grounding and RF protection
C.4 Grounding Recommendations
C.4.1 Grounding the terminal
The terminal should be grounded to the ship/hull by means of a short antenna
cable and a grounding kit. Further, the terminal must be grounded at its
grounding stud in order to ensure proper grounding if the short antenna cable
is disconnected.
If you are using the Extended cable support, make the ground connections
through the cable support.
You may need to extend the ground plane using copper foil. For further
information, see Extending the ground plane on page 38.
