It is also recommended that you fit a drip loop on the PIDU Plus to ODU cable to ensure that
any moisture that runs down the cable into the cabinet or enclosure cannot enter the PIDU
Plus. This is shown in Figure 45. The network connection and mains cable should be treated
in the same way if there is a risk that they can carry moisture to the PIDU Plus.

CAUTION: It is possible for moisture to enter the cable due to damage to the outer protective
layer. This moisture can track down the inside of the cable, filling up the drip loop and
eventually finding its way into the PIDU Plus. To protect against this the outer protective layer
of the cable can be opened up at the bottom of the drip loop to allow this moisture to escape.
