Refer to the antenna manufacturer procedures.

1.5 - Installing the ODU(s)

Depending on the configuration, and on the antenna type, there are several ODU mounting
possibilities :
• 1+0 Configuration with integrated antenna : (or 1+1 configuration with two antennas)
The ODU is directly attached on an integrated antenna with four latches. It is connected to the
IDU by a single coaxial cable terminated with N male connectors.
Setting the Polarization :
If antenna has a circular waveguide interface (7 GHz, 8 GHz or 38 GHz), polarization depends
only on the ODU position. For vertical polarization, make sure that the arrow on the ODU cover is
vertical, for horizontal polarization, turn the ODU from 90 degrees.
