4.5.2. Connecting the GNSS Smart Antenna to the 5700MSC-IP
A standard 50 foot long interface cable (Evertz part WA-T09) is provided with the 5700MSC-IP and the
smart antenna. One end of this cable is fitted with a weather-tight 12-pin Deutsch IMC21 connector.
The other end is fitted with a 9-pin male sub-miniature D connector and should be connected to the
GNSS connector on the rear panel of the 5700MSC-IP. The pinout of the cable is shown in Table 4-6.
If you require a longer cable, a 100 foot (Evertz part WA-T76), 200 foot cable (Evertz part WA-T10),
400 foot cable (Evertz part WA-T11), 800 foot cable (Evertz part WA-08) or 1200 foot cable (Evertz
part WA-T12) may be ordered from the factory. Custom length weatherproof cables can also be
special ordered. Alternately, you can wire a 9-pin Extender cable as shown in Table 4-7.
Connect the 12-pin connector on the interface cable to the smart antenna. The connector on the
interface connector has a locking ring for securing the connection.

CAUTION: Over tightening the locking ring can damage the connector on the smart
antenna. Fasten finger-tight until snug. Using tools will damage it.
Route the interface cable to the location of the 5700MSC-IP unit using the most direct path. Avoid
routing the cable near hot surfaces, sharp or abrasive surfaces, or corrosive fluids or gases. Avoid
sharp kinks or bends in the cable. Additional protection such as heat shrink tubing may be required to
protect the cable jacket at points where the cable enters the building, especially if the opening is rough
or sharp. Once the cable is run, use cable-ties to secure the cable to the pole and to provide strain
relief for the connections. When securing the cable, start at the antenna and work towards the
5700MSC-IP unit. Connect the 9-pin male D connector to the GPS connector on the rear panel of the
5700MSC-IP. Power is provided from the 5700MSC-IP along the interface cable to the smart antenna.

It is best to keep the antenna cable run as short as possible. If two 5700MSC-IP units
are being used, each with their own GNSS antenna, the antenna cable lengths should
be matched as closely as possible.
