7 Installation
Both ends of the ODU cable are terminated in the same way. The above procedure should be
repeated for the PIDU Plus end of the cable when the cable routing process is complete. This
assumes that the installation uses PTP LPUs. If not, then the PIDU Plus end of the cable
does not require a Gland, but just the
RJ45.
NOTE: The PIDU Plus end of the cable does not employ a cable gland.
Figure 17 shows a completed ODU to PIDU Plus cable.

CAUTION: Do not over tighten the glands as the internal seal and structure may be
damaged. See Figure 18 for an example of an over tightened cable gland.
