Installation
CAUTION: The PIDU Plus is not waterproof and should be mounted away from sources of
moisture. If mounted outdoors, the unit should be mounted in a rain proof enclosure, preferably
ventilated.
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.

can be opened up at the bottom of the drip loop to allow this moisture to escape.
