The blue color label indicates a high band radio and the red color
label indicates a low band radio
It is critically important during installation to ensure the
radios on each side of the link are in the same polarization
(horizontal­horizontal or vertical­vertical). A link that has a
radio on one side of the link set in the horizontal polarization
and the other side of the link set in the vertical polarization
will not operate properly.
It is also critically important that a high­band radio is paired with
a low­band radio to ensure the system will operate properly. Prior
to installation check each radio to verify one is a high­band and
the other is a low­band version. The label on the radio will
indicate the band (blue for high or red for low).
6. Verify that the four (4) captive 3/8­16 bolts with lock and flat washer are in place. A ½ inch
open­end wrench is required to tighten them. It is important that all four screws are tightened
evenly (hand tight, 1 to 2 turns each and finally until the lock washer is flattened)
