Mounting the CPU | RadioLAN Campus BridgeLINK specification

Mounting the CPU

When mounting the CPU, you must follow these steps.

Before mounting the CPU to the mounting surface, connect the connector at the end of the CRM’s cable to the 15 pin D connector on the CPU (see Figure 13).

Route the antenna cable from the directional antenna to the CRM, and slip the cold-shrink tubing over the end of the cable before connecting the cable to the antenna.

Connect the cable to the CRM, using a clockwise rotation. Tighten the antenna connector so that it is snug but does not strip the threads of the connector on the CRM.

Complete the shrink tubing installation by following the instructions provided with the tubing.
