NSTALLATION
Refer to Figure C-21.
Care should 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 must 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 must be sealed with a self-amalgamating tape, such
as 3M, Type 23 Scotch Self-Amalgamating tape, or equivalent, including military
style (MS) connectors.
