2. As shown in Figure3-2, secure bracket (A) to the wall using two screws (F).
3. Use a ring-terminal to connect ground-wire (C) to bolt (B). The ring-terminal and
ground wire are provided by the installer.
4. Secure bolt (B) to the bracket using washers and locknut (D).
5. Loosely install washers and hexnut (G) onto the RoamAbout Lightning Protector (E).
6. Insert the Lightning Protector into the opening in bracket (A).
7. Tighten hexnut (G) to secure the RoamAbout Lightning Protector in its position, and

To avoid damage to the RoamAbout equipment, always install the RoamAbout
Lightning Protector between the outdoor antenna installation and the RoamAbout
Access Point or other computing device connected to the outdoor antenna.
