•Lift up the turntable and place it carefully on the mounting plate facing in the direction of travel (see illustration Fig. E) (do not step on the plug connector and do not kink/crush the cables!).

The through holes on the turntable must be perfectly aligned with the threaded holes on the mounting plate. When lowering, make sure that the cables are fed through the cable gland and are not crushed.

•Apply a little adhesive sealant to the six threaded holes in the mounting plate and screw the fastening screws into the thread. Tighten the screws to a torque of 6 Nm.

•To prevent water vapour from inside the vehicle reaching the turntable through the roof gland, thread the two cables through the sealing gasket supplied (see Fig. E) and insert this into the roof gland until it reaches the stop. Insert the plug into the third cable duct which is not used. Make sure that no tensile loads are acting downwards on the sealing gasket as this can cause it to fall out over time.

CAP 600 specifications

The Kathrein CAP 600 is a cutting-edge solution designed for the modern telecommunications landscape, catering primarily to the demands of mobile network operators and service providers. This compact, high-performance active antenna system is engineered to enhance connectivity in urban environments, significantly improving network efficiency and user experience.

One of the key features of the Kathrein CAP 600 is its multi-band capability. It supports various frequency bands including LTE, 5G NR, and others, making it versatile for both current and future network deployments. This allows operators to seamlessly upgrade their services without needing to overhaul their infrastructure.

The CAP 600 is equipped with advanced MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) technology, which leverages multiple antennas at both transmitting and receiving ends to boost data throughput and reliability. This technology is essential for maximizing spectral efficiency, thus accommodating more users and higher data rates in dense urban areas.

In terms of design, the Kathrein CAP 600 features a compact and lightweight structure. This is crucial for installations in constrained environments where space is at a premium. The antenna's sleek aesthetics also allow it to blend into its surroundings, thereby reducing visual impact, which is often a concern in urban deployments.

The antenna incorporates intelligent software features that facilitate dynamic beamforming. This enables targeted coverage, allowing signals to be directed towards users rather than being broadcast in all directions, thus minimizing interference and optimizing network performance. Additionally, the built-in remote management capabilities allow operators to monitor and manage network performance in real-time, enhancing operational efficiency.

Regarding sustainability, the CAP 600 is designed with energy efficiency in mind. The use of advanced materials and optimized hardware contributes to lower energy consumption, making it an environmentally friendly choice for operators looking to reduce their carbon footprint.

Overall, the Kathrein CAP 600 is a sophisticated solution that meets the high demands of modern mobile networks. With its advanced features, technologies, and commitment to sustainable operations, it represents a pivotal component for any operator looking to enhance connectivity and provide exceptional service in today’s dynamic telecommunications environment.
