    SUPREME AIS System Coaxial cables should not be exposed to sharp bends, which may lead to a change of the characteristic impedance of the cable. The minimum bending radius should be 5 times the cable's diameter. All outdoor installed connectors should be weather proofed, e.g. with shrink tubing, watertight seal tape or butyl rubber tape and plastic tape sealing, to protect against water penetration into the antenna cable.
