c ConnecttheLVDSCablestotheRFModule—theLVDScableslabeledPRIMandDIVshould
alwayseitherbeconnectedtoaRFModuleorstrainrelievedtoadjacentcables,asthisprotects
thecableagainstdamagethroughmisplacement.Maintainadequatestrain-reliefdistancesfrom
theconnectionpointstotheRFModule.
i ConnecttheMODNDIVLVDSCabletotheDIVreceptacleoftheRFModulebyinsertingand
slidinginuntilfullyseated.FullinsertioncanberecognizedbyanaudibleclickastheLVDS
CableConnectorlocksintotheRFModuleReceptacle.
ii ConnecttheMODNPRIMLVDSCabletothePRIMconnector,followingthesamestepsas
above.FullinsertioncanberecognizedbyanaudibleclickastheLVDSCableConnectorlocks
intotheRFModuleReceptacle.
iii EnsurethetwoLVDScablesarefullyseatedandlatchedintotheirrespectivereceptacleson
theRFModulebylightlypullingoutwardontheconnectors.Iffullyseatedandlockedinto
position,thecableconnectorswillnotslidebackout.
d ConnectthePowercabletothePWRreceptacleoftheRFModule.
i EnsurethattheDCpowerswitchthatcorrespondstothebay(s)inwhichtheRFModuleisto
beinstalledisintheOffposition(see"ChecktheDCPowerSwitchfortheModuleBay”on
page84).
i InsertthePowercableintothePWRconnector,andslideitinuntilfullyseated.Fullinsertion
canberecognizedbyanaudibleclickasthePowercableConnectorlocksintotheRFModule
Receptacle.
ii VerifythatthePowercableisfullyseatedbylightlypullingbackonitwhilemakingsureto
notdepressthereleasetriggersontheendsoftheconnector.Whenfullyinserted,thecable
shouldnotbeabletoberemovedfromthereceptacle.
CAUTION! Maintain adequate strain relief distances from the connection points to the RF Module.
