Earthing and lightning protection
Warning:
Lightning can easily damage electronic equipment.
To avoid this risk, install primary lightning protection devices on any interfaces that are
reticulated in the local cable network.
You should also install a coaxial surge suppressor on the antenna port of the duplexer
Earth the antenna tower, feeders and lightning protection devices in accordance with the appropriate
local and national standards. The diagram below shows the minimum requirements.
Use grounding kits as specified or supplied by the coaxial cable manufacturer to properly ground or
bond the cable outer.
