When you arrive at the final cabinet the only difference is that the trailing second U-Net cable is connected to the final U-Net 2
port on the last cabinet and the U-Net LED should be checked for good network connectivity between the final cabinet and U-
Net port 2 on the Merlin back in the rack.
If the final cabinet is an MLD it is rigged in exactly the same way. It is a little heavier and the steeper angle makes it a fraction
more difficult to locate the front rigging brackets but having rigged all of the previous cabinets you should have a good feel for
how the rigging works so it shouldn't pose too much of a problem.
As the MLD is designed to have a steeper vertical dispersion and will always be on the bottom of a curved array, it is possible
that the CeeForm connector will no longer be angled down and therefore when used outdoors there is a possibility of rain water
running down the mains cable and into the connector. The connectors are rated to IP67 when mated however as an additional
weatherproofing measure the MLD is fitted with a rain boot around the CeeForm into which the connector must be inserted to
connect with the power inlet on the cabinet. This has a cord to seal the boot around the cable. Pull this tight, a friction grip holds
the cord tight, it is released with a simple push button;-
