Direct-Mounted ODUs

Overview

Vol. III-2-2
There are two ODU variants; ODU 300ep and ODU 300hp. For details refer to
Outdoor Units, Volume II, Chapter 4.
• All ODUs are designed for direct-mounting to a collar supplied with direct-fit
antennas.
• All ODUs can also be installed with standard antennas using a flex-waveguide
remote-mount kit.
For single-antenna protected operation a coupler is available to support direct
mounting of the two ODUs to its antenna, or to support direct mounting onto a
remote-mounted coupler.
