6. Route Cables
Route the coaxial cables to the radio equipment being careful not to foul any moving components. Respect a bend radius of 25mm (1") for the cables if
possible. Connect the antenna to the radio equipment.
7. Commission and Test
Check GPS/GNSS cable (where applicable):
● Check the GPS cable with DC to measure high resistance.
● Connect the GPS cable to the GPS receiver and check for satellite acquisition.
Check comms cable(s)
● Carry out VSWR check, should measure as specifi ed in the antenna data sheet.
8. Notices
