C.4.3 Cable Installation
Refer to Figure C-7.
Care shall be exercised in cable installation. Install the cables using the most
direct route and secure with clamps and ties. Avoid all sharp bends.
Cable connectors used in outdoor applications shall be sealed to avoid leakage,
particularly N-type connectors. Moisture can seep into junctions at the plug end of
the connector, between the fixed and movable parts, and where the cable connects
to the connector. Signal attenuation and possible loss of signal can occur in the
presence of moisture. All cable junctions shall be sealed with a self-amalgamating
tape, such as 3M, Type 23 Scotch Self-Amalgamating tape, or equivalent,
including military style (MS) connectors.
WARNING
The Downconverter RF input connector is wired to supply DC
voltage to an LNA. This voltage is capable of damaging any test
equipment connected to the connector. Do not connect test
equipment to this connector without a coaxial DC block between
the connector and the test equipment.
