GENERAL INFORMATION This manual describes the assembly and installation of CPI’s 1.2 meter antenna system. The CPI 1.2 meter is a rugged and reliable mount which will operate in the Ku-Band frequency with high efficiency and at the same time successfully withstand the effects of the environment.
The required interface from the foundation to the mount is 2-1/2" schedule 40 pipe (2.88" O.D.). A suggested in-ground foundation is shown in Figure 1. Also available from CPI, as options, are a kingpost pedestal mount and a non- penetrating mast mount.

REFLECTOR CPI’s reflector does not require any maintenance. The composite construction of the reflector is virtually impervious to any damages that could be caused by weather or atmospheric conditions. It is only necessary to inspect for any physical damage done by vandalism or very severe weather conditions.
