8.2.4.1 Connecting the Antenna Cable
Follow the following steps to connect an antenna to the device, by using an antenna cable.
1. Use an RF cable (antenna cable) to connect the outdoor device to an external antenna.
2. Connect the right-angled N-male connector of RF cable on the antenna. The antenna cables run from the external
antenna to the RP-SMA connectors on the device. The N-Type connectors on the antenna have built-in surge protection.
3. Secure the antenna cable to the antenna mast, as the cable connectors do not support the full weight of the cable.
4. Connect the other end of the antenna cable to the device.
: Do not use tools to tighten the cable connectors, as they damage the antenna cable and connectors.
