3.2 Antenna Cabling
Figure 14 shows the two antenna connectors at the base of the LRP2000 antenna.
Figure 14: Antenna Connectors
Connect one end of the antenna cable assembly, CBL-1475, to the antenna connectors at the base of the
antenna. Mate the connectors at the opposite end of the cable assembly to the corresponding RF
connector on the controller. The cable assembly has two different types of RF connectors, one threaded
TNC and one bayonet-style BNC. The controller has one TNC and seven BNC connectors. The BNC
connector of the antenna cable assembly must only be connected to the controller connector for single
antenna systems.
CAUTION:The antenna cables must be properly connected to both the controller and the antenna at any
time that power is applied to the controller. Failure to properly connect the controller to the
antenna can cause damage to the unit. Connecting the controller to any antenna other than the
LRP2000 antenna can not only damage the controller, but void the your authority to operate the
LRP2000.
