Mounting and Wiring Considerations
The OM20 should be mounted with the BUC higher than the OM20 with the interconnecting
communication cabling and power cords at the lowest possible position. Unit weight and
cable/waveguide length should be considered when selecting the mounting location
The following diagrams should be used as a reference to the various mounting options. The
OM20 should not be placed immediately above a high-heat or EMI (Electro-Magnetic
Interference) source to ensure the output signal integrity and proper receive operation. Figures
2-3 through 2-11 illustrate the different interconnect and data interface configurations for the
OM20.
