Selecting a position for the ODU (connectorized)

Mount a connectorized ODU in a position that gives it maximum protection from the

elements, allows easy access to the cables, and allows antenna cable lengths to be

minimized. If separate antennas are being deployed, it is not necessary to mount the

ODU at the mid-point between the antennas.

Mounting the ODU

To mount the ODU, proceed as follows:

Attach the ODU bracket strap to the pole using M8 x 40 mm or M8 x 70 mm

bolts, M8 flat washers and M8 coil washers. Tighten to ensure the assembly

grips, but can be adjusted on the pole.

Use the integrated lifting eye to hoist the ODU up to the bracket, observing the

safety precautions listed in Checks and safety precautions on page 15.

Offer the ODU (with pre-fitted mounting bracket) to the bracket strap and affix

using the captive M8 bolt. Tighten to ensure the assembly grips, but can be

adjusted on the pole.

Adjust the elevation and azimuth of the unit to achieve an approximate visual

alignment (does not apply to connectorized ODUs). Tighten all three bracket

bolts to the required torque settings of 14 Nm (11 lb ft).

Do not over-tighten the bolts, as this may lead to failure of the assembly.
