NOTE
Capabilities of the PTP 600 Series
The structure and mounting brackets of the PTP Series systems are capable of
withstanding wind speeds up to 151mph (242 kph). The installer should ensure that
the structure to which the PTP 600 Series is fixed to is also capable of withstanding
the prevalent wind speeds and loads.
Wind speed statistics
Installers are recommended to contact the national meteorological office for the
country concerned to identify the likely wind speeds prevalent at the proposed
location. This will enable the installer to estimate the total wind loading on the
support structures. Sources of information:

When the connectorized version of 600 Series is used with external
antennas, the figures from the antenna manufacturer for lateral force should
be included to calculate to total loading on the mounting structure.
