Setting the Polarization
Antenna installation instructions are included with all anten-
nas. They include procedures for setting pol arization.
The polarization of the transmitted signal, horizontal or vertical, is determined by
the antenna. The polarization (orientation) of the ODU is set to match its antenna
Direct-Mounted ODUs: For direct-mounted ODUs, antenna polarization is set
using a polarization rotator fitted within the ODU mounting collar.
