Receive cable Connect the receive cable to the low noise block converter (LNB)
as follows:
1. Connect the receive cable (marked with red tape) to the
receive connector on the LNB.
Figure 43 shows the receive connector location on the J-type
radio assembly, and Figure 44 shows the connector location
on the cradle-type radio assembly. In both cases the
connector is a female F connector.
2. Use a 7 / 16 -inch torque wrench to tighten the connector to
20 inch-lb .
3. Apply dielectric silicone grease to the connection.
4. If necessary, secure the cable with cable ties.
After the transmit and receive cables are connected to the radio
and to the IDU, reconnect the power transformer (inside the
building). Instructions for connecting the IDU are included in the
IDU installation manual.
