Connecting Cables in a Single-Bay RF Module Installation
1 PositionthecablessothattheyareundertherightedgeoftheRFModule,pointingup.
2 Followtheruleslistedin"UnderstandingRFCableRules”onpage26.
3 ConnecttheRFModulecables,intheordershownbelow.Asyouwork,refertothegraphicthat
correspondstotheRFModulebeinginstalledintoasinglebayofthePRU:foraSingle-BayRF
Module,refertoFigure31onpage98,andforanHDMRFModule,refertoFigure32onpage99and
Table24onpage99.
a ConnecttheMODNTX0/RX0cabletotheRFModule(theRFcablesandconnectorsarereferred
toasMODNTX0/RX0whereNequalsA,B,C,orD).
i InserttheN-StylePlugoftheMODNTX0/RX0cableintotheTX0/RX0N-StyleJackoftheRF
Module.
ii Turnthecouplingnutoftheplugclockwisetothreadontothejackandfinger-tighten.
iii Torquecouplingnutto8±1in-lbstoensurefullconnection.
NOTE: Insufficient torque applied to RF Module connections can result in elevated insertion/return
loss and higher than normal VSWR reported by the system.
b ConnecttheMODNTX1/RX1cabletotheRFModule(theRFcablesandconnectorsarereferred
toasMODNTX1/RX1whereNequalsB,C,orD).
i IfaTX1/RX1RFModuleconnectionisavailable,inserttheN-StylePlugoftheMODN
TX1/RX1cableintotheTX1/RX1N-StyleJackoftheRFModule.IfRFModuleconnectionis
notavailable,constraintheMODNTX1/RX1cabletoaccompanyingcablesusingatiewrap
soitcannotbepinchedorpreventtheRemoteUnitdoorfromclosing.
ii Turnthecouplingnutoftheplugclockwisetothreadontothejackandfinger-tighten.
iii Torquecouplingnutto8±1in-lbstoensurefullconnection.
