Hardware mounting

Install the up-mast transceiver

The up-mast transceiver must be mounted with the cable connectors pointed aft. Ensure
there is adequate space for the housing to open fully backwards. There should also be
sufficient space behind the up-mast transceiver in order to easily access the plugs and safety
switch at back of housing.
Securely mount the up-mast transceiver prior to fitting the antenna.
Ú Note:
The waveguide protection cover on the up-mast transceiver must not be removed
until immediately prior to antenna fitment.
Ú Note:
While the up-mast transceiver is fitted with mounting studs to cater for common
installation scenarios, it may be required to fit different studs or bolts to suit the specific
requirements of the installation. The supplied studs are M12, and allow mounting to a
surface no more than 30mm thick. Any replacement hardware should allow for a wound-
in depth of at least 2x the diameter of the bolt or stud (e.g. >24mm). Use a good quality
isolating or anti-seize compound on the thread, to prevent electrolysis.
Fasteners should be of 316L stainless and property class 70 or better (bolt heads will be
marked accordingly), or similar strength high tensile steel with a permanent protective
coating system applied.
