Tsunami MP.11a Antenna Installation Guide

Antennas shall be mounted in such a manner to minimize the potential for human contact during normal operation. In order to avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna shall not be less than 20 cm (8 inches) during normal operation.

The low-loss antenna cable that will connect the antenna with the surge arrestor must be at least 1 m (3 ft) away from any high voltage or high current cable.

Check whether the antenna mast and its guy wires or wall bracket are positioned correctly and secured properly to the roof or wall(s).

Check whether the grounding system for the antenna mast, the Tsunami MP.11a hardware and surge arrestor have been installed. The grounding system must comply with the requirements as described in “Grounding System.”

Always consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the antenna mast, the surge arrestor and Tsunami MP.11a hardware are properly grounded.

The antenna cable between the antenna and the surge arrestor must be grounded at all times. If the cable is disconnected at one end for some reason (for example, to replace the surge arrestor) then you must ensure that the exposed metal connector of the cable is grounded locally during the work.

INSTALLATION OVERVIEW

The installation process can be summarized in the following steps:

1.Verify that the support structure for the antenna has been connected to the grounding system. If this is not the case, you should do so now.

2.Connect the exposed metal connectors of the low-loss antenna cable to the grounding system.

3.Mount the antenna to the support structure, following the guidelines as described for your antenna.

4.Connect the antenna cable to the antenna.

5.Route the antenna cable to the surge arrestor that has been installed indoors.

6.Connect the antenna cable to the surge arrestor.

7.Attach the surge arrestor to the N-type male connector pigtail hanging from the cable opening in the Tsunami MP.11.

8.Run the Link Test diagnostics of the management tools that come with the Tsunami MP.11a to aim the antenna and verify optimal placement.

9.Once the antenna is correctly positioned, and you have verified the installation works properly, secure all cables and use weatherproofing tape to seal all outdoor connectors.

Note: When you must remove or relocate the antenna, follow the Safety Precautions at the beginning of this chapter and follow the steps listed above in exactly the reverse order.
