6.5.1 Installing the AMP 2440 bi-directional amplifier
The AMP 2440 bi-directional amplifier is designated for installation by
professional radio installers. Several key factors unique to the particular installation
determine the power level at the input of the amplifier. The most important
consideration is the cable loss in the transmission cable between the radio and the
pole mounted amp. The installer should understand these and other factors when
computing the input power to the amplifier.
The AMP 2440 bi-directional amplifier can be mast mounted using the steel U-bolt
included with the unit (refer to Figure 6-6). The AMP 2440 bi-directional amplifier
should be installed with the connectors facing downward. After placing the
assembly on the mast, use an open-end wrench to carefully tighten the nuts. Take
care not to over-tighten the nuts or you may inadvertently strip the threads.

WARNING!
It is very important to waterproof the RF connectors on the AMP 2440 bi-
directional amplifier.
However, it is recommended that you do not seal the connectors until after all
system tests have been performed. Be sure to use the high quality weather resistant
vapor wrap included with you amplifier kit to seal all the outside connections.
