Installing a connectorized ODU and antenna
Weatherproof the ODU joints using self-amalgamating tape under a layer of PVC tape
(Figure
5-12). If the antenna manufacturer has not supplied guidance on this matter,
the same technique should be employed at the antenna end of the cables.

to be grounded at additional points. To identify any additional grounding
