4.1. PRO/MARINE – Cable routing
The IsatDock provides three different cable
routing options when installing the docking
station.
Cables may exit via path 'A' that travels
around to the top of the dock allowing for
the interface cables to be run with the
external antenna connections. Path 'B'
directs cables out the base of the dock while
path 'C' results in cables exiting to the side.

In all cases the cables pass through the IP
sealing foam and plastic cable guides at the
same point.

Figure 12 – PRO/MARINE cable routing options
For an extra clean installation, a hole may be driven through the surface directly behind the docking
station. Right angled adapters are fitted to the external antenna connectors and the cables are
routed via path 'A' out through the same hole. With the cables routed in this manner, there are no
cables visibly exiting the docking station due to the recessed antenna connectors at the top of the
docking station.
