Connecting the Coaxial Cable to
the LNB
Installation Procedure
1) Make sure your satellite receiver is unplugged. Connecting the LNB cable to the LNB while
the satellite receiver is plugged in could permanently damage
your LNB.
2) If you installed the satellite dish antenna assembly onto a metal
pole, go to step 3. Otherwise, route the coaxial cable(s) through
the mast and LNB support arm, and then continue on to step 4.
3) Route the coaxial cable(s) along the outside of the pole and
inside the LNB support arm.
4) Insert the cable into the cable clip. This ensures that there will
be enough slack in the cable if you need to remove the LNB
later. If you are routing two cables, use a cable tie to bind the
cables together, then insert one of the cables into the cable clip.
5) Attach the coaxial cable(s) onto the LNB as shown.

a second cable that's the same length.
3) Secure the grounding block to a stable
mounting surface with two screws, then connect
the cable(s) to the grounding block.
4) Secure the cable(s) with cable clips. Do not
forget to form the drip loop and secure it in place
with cable clips.
