Prepare/Route Cables

Follow the steps below to prepare and route
cables from the antenna mounting site(s) to the
belowdecks equipment locations.
IMPORTANT!
• Be sure to maintain the appropriate
minimum cable bend radius to ensure
cable integrity. RG-6 cables require a bend
radius of at least 3" (7.6 cm). RG-11 cables
require a bend radius of at least 4.5"
(11.5 cm).
• Be sure to leave an adequate service loop,
approximately 8" (20 cm) at both ends of
each cable.
a. Apply the "Antenna A" cable labels
(supplied in the antenna kitpack) to both
ends of the appropriate cables at the antenna
mounting site (Antenna A) (see Figure 13 and
Figure 14).
b. Route the cables through the cable access hole
to the belowdecks equipment location(s) you
determined earlier.
c. If you are installing two antennas, repeat the
steps above to prepare the cables at the
second antenna's mounting site (Antenna B)
(see Figure 15).
