microBTS antenna port or the lightning protector (accessory).
Use the following procedure to install the antenna cable(s):
1 Remove the dust cap from the N-type female connector located on the underside of the
enclosure as shown in Figure 4-4.
2 If specified, connect a lightning protector (accessory) to the antenna port.
3 Route the coaxial antenna cable from the base station antenna to the underside of the
enclosure.
4 Cut the antenna cable to the required length and terminate with an N-type male connector.
5 Connect the antenna cable to the lightning protector or to the antenna port.
