Mounting Tips for Running Outside Antenna Cable
If you are mounting the outside antenna on the roof of your building,
we have found that it is easiest to run your cable underneath the
down side of your roof's flashing . If you have satellite TV service
installed at your home or office, you may be able to follow the
same route as the satellite TV cables that are already running from
the outside of your building to the inside . After routing the cable,
we recommend sealing any areas where the cable passes into
the building with silicone or other waterproof sealant to keep your
installation from leaking . If you are mounting the outside antenna to
the outside wall of your home or building, the simplest way is to run
the coaxial cable on the outside of the wall and attach it to the exterior
of your home or office . Then drill a hole through the wall where you
want the cable to appear on the inside of the building . Before drilling,
make sure that there are no electrical
outlets, sewer or water pipes, or
electrical wiring in the wall that you
are about to drill through as this could
potentially harm you or damage the
building .
After drilling the required hole, run
the cable through and seal it with
cable bushings or a silicone-
type sealant to enclose the
hole that you have created .
In some instances, it may
be possible to run the cable
up into the fascia of the
attic overhang . In this
circumstance, the cable
will be accessible in the attic
for further routing .
