7. Ensure that the cabling of ethernet / power cables and the surge arrestor is proper. See
Arrestor and Ethernet / Power
8. Ensure that the antennas are grounded properly to the grounding system, satisfying the local electrical code
requirements. See
9. Once the antenna is properly positioned, grounded and the outdoor cable setup is verified, secure all the cables and
use weatherproofing tape to seal all the outdoor connectors. See
10. Make sure that the outdoor antennas at both the ends maintain the same antenna polarizations.
: For easy outdoor antenna installation, note the following:
• Go through the
• Read all the requirements outlined in this chapter. See
• Familiarize yourself with the antenna and the radio-specific mounting instructions, prior to climbing any roof or
ladder.
• Verify that you have arranged all safety measures for outdoor installation or rooftop installation. See
Precautions.
• Test all the equipment before beginning the actual rooftop installation, to determine if all the required equipment is
functioning properly.
• Install the grounding system for the antenna mast, device, and surge arrestor before connecting the cables. This
protects your system against lightning strikes during installation.
• When you remove or relocate the antenna, verify the
restart the installation process, and follow the above steps in exactly the reverse order.
