Mounting the azimuth
elevation bracket onto the
pole
The RF cable assembly supplied (10m), forms an integral part of the antenna system and is made
to a specific length in order to meet the system specifications. The cable must not be cut to a
shorter length, nor must any cables be added to the cable run.
It is essential that only the supplied cable is used. Third party cables may not be used;; their use
will invalidate the warranty of the antenna and may cause system malfunction.
It is important not to stress the connection to the antenna during installation of the coaxial
antenna cable.
The minimum bend radius of the cable is 2" (50mm) however;; it is recommended that a 4"
(100mm) bend radius be used.
Any modification to these rules must be approved by Hughes and Inmarsat prior to the
installation.
