1.5.1 How to fabricate the cables
LAN cable
Note: When fabricating the LAN cable for connection to the antenna unit, remove the
locking nut on the antenna base, then slide the locking nut onto the LAN cable before
fitting the modular plug. If the modular plug is fitted before the nut, repeat the proce-
dure and fit the nut before step 6.

Fold back drain wire and cut it,
leaving approx. 9 mm.
Straighten and flatten the cores
in colored order and cut them,
leaving approx. 11 mm.
Modular plug
Using special crimping tool
MPT5-8AS (PANDUIT CORP.), crimp
the modular plug. Finally, check the
plug visually.
Insert the cable into the modular
plug so that the folded part of the
shield enters into the plug housing.
The drain wire should be located
on the tab side of the jack.
