Air4Gp Installation Guide
Page 31 Commercial in Confidence UGD-D00236 Rev B
Note: Mounting kit is included.
To mount the antenna for the Air4Gp in the mast mount configuration, perform the
following steps:
1. Attach the Antenna brackets to the top and bottom of the radome.
2. Attach the tilt arm to the top bracket of the radome.
3. Fasten the ends of the adjustable pipe mounts to the top and bottom brackets of the
radome.
4. Lift the radome and place the screws through the adjustable pipe mounts and position the
radome so that the top mounting holes retain the unit.
5. Screw the bottom two screws and washers into the two standoff fittings at the bottom of
the radome assembly.
6. Tighten all fixing screws.
7. Attach, connect and secure antenna RF cable between the antenna and the appropriate
Air4Gp Antenna RF connection on the top of the unit.
4.5 Antenna Connections (Optional)
Caution: Antennas must be connected and attached before Air4Gp is powered
on.
Caution: Attach the appropriate cable to the antenna and hand-tighten. Torque
the N-Type connector to 6.2 - 9.7 in-lbs or 0.7 - 1.1 N-m using either a 19mm or
13/16” open end Torque wrench (depending on coupling type).
Caution: Power down Air4Gp prior to disconnecting antenna.
4.6 GPS Antenna Assembly
The GPS antenna should be installed far from:
 High-voltage power cables.
 Strong radiation area of any TV transmission stations.
 Radiation area of the main lobe of the RF Antenna.
 Radiation area of the microwave antenna.
 Other areas with inter-frequency interference or strong electromagnetic interference.
Cable Fastening Good Practices:
 No more than 5m between cable fastening spaces.
 No more than 1m between cable termination and first fastener.
 Fastenings should be to a robust construction (i.e. mast pole, BS mount…).
 Fasteners should be weather and UV resistant.
 Cables should have some slack for thermal expansion/contraction between fastenings.
4.6.1 Mounting GPS Directly on Air4Gp
To mount the GPS antenna directly on the Air4Gp:
1. Route the RG58 cable through the flat washer and the 2 nuts (supplied).
2. Position the RG58 cable below the mounting hole on the GPS antenna mounting bracket.
