OUTDOOR CABLING COMPONENTS

To connect your Tsunami MP.11a hardware to an outdoor antenna installation, you will need the following cabling components:

▪Surge arrestor

▪Low-loss antenna cables

▪One of the outdoor antennas described in Appendix C.

When purchasing new Tsunami MP.11a products, each of these components will be equipped with standard N-type connectors.

When ordering separate components, for example as a spare part or replacement to previously purchased Tsunami outdoor antenna equipment, carefully read the note on the following page to ensure that you order components with an N-type connector that matches the other parts of your outdoor antenna cabling system.

SELECTING THE CORRECT CONNECTOR TYPE

All cabling components of the Tsunami outdoor antenna system come with standard-N type connectors as depicted in the following table.

Table 8. Standard N-Type Connector Diagram

Cabling Component		Standard-N Cabling Systems
a	Pigtail attached to MP.11	1	Proprietary connector
		2	Stand-N male
b	Surge arrestor	Reverse polarity-N female on both ends
c	Low-loss cable	Reverse Polarity-N male on both ends
d	Outdoor antenna	Reverse polarity-N female

Note that the gender of the connector is not determined by the connector’s thread, but by its center pin; a solid center pin = male, a hollow pin = female.
