Protection against Lightning
The use of lightning protection is dependent on regulatory and end user requirements. All of
RADWIN outdoor units are designed with surge limiting circuits to minimize the risk of dam-
age due to lightning strikes. RADWIN recommends the use of additional surge arrestor
devices to protect the equipment from nearby lightning strikes.
See Chapter 18 for detailed installation instructions of lightning protection devices.
