Strain relief
To protect the antenna from strain, you can attach strain relief, e.g. in the form of a strain
relief clamp. The following graphic shows the optimum mounting point for attaching strain
relief.

With cables capable of being used in drag chains, 100,000 bending cycles at a bending radius of
100 mm and a bend through ± 180° or 3 million torsion cycles with a bend of ± 180° on a cable
length of 1 m are permitted.
