2.3 Site Selection
Your SDT 5000 assembly has been thoroughly tested and designed for use in rugged weather
conditions and Class I Division II environments. However, due care and attention is still required for
a proper installation. Select a site with a clear unobstructed line of sight to the satellite. The satellite is
situated over the equator roughly in the center of North America. When possible, select a site with
shelter from extreme weather conditions.
The SDT 5000 is environmentally sealed, so it may be mounted directly outdoors. When
the SDT 5000 is mounted outdoors, it must be mounted with the cable connector
pointing downwards. See
Figure 1.
The unit can also be installed indoors behind a glass window, provided there is a line of sight path
from the antenna to the satellite through the window. When the unit is installed indoors, the unit can
be oriented either vertically or horizontally. Please note that some type of glass may affect the
performance.
