Installing a Suppressor Without a Support Bracket
Procedure:
1. Attach the suppressor to ODU.
2. Attach the ODU cable to the suppressor and firmly hand tighten the Type N
connectors. Ensure the cable is first formed (bent to fit) before it is attached
to the suppressor.
3. Weatherproof the connectors. Refer to Wrapping Guidelines, Amalgamating
Tape on page 2-39.
4. Attach the supplied ground wire to the body of the suppressor using the
supplied star washers and nuts.
5. Trim and attach the ground wire to the tower using the supplied Harger
ground clamp. First scrape any paint or oxidation from the tower at the
clamping point to ensure there will be good low-resistance contact.
6. Separately attach the supplied ground wire to ODU ground stud.
7. Trim and attach to the tower. Refer to Grounding the ODU on page 2-13.
8. Apply copper-based protective grease around the ground clamp assemblies,
and around the ground studs on the suppressor and ODU.
Do not attach the ODU cable to the suppressor and then use this as a levering
point to bend the ODU cable as this may cause the right angle connector
between suppressor and ODU to fracture.
Always bend the ODU cable to fit onto the suppressor before attaching it to the
suppressor.
