This chapter describes the PX/QX with Coupler primary (PAB) and secondary (SAB) antennas
wir
ing and cabling.
WARNING: This system runs on TR4026
electronics with firmware 46.0 or higher. It is critical
to note that ONLY TR4026 electronics can be used in conjunction with this system.
Information is covered in the following sections:
1. General wiring instruction
2. Single Aisle wiring
3. Multi Aisles wiring
General Wiring Instruction
This section describes how to prepare and wire all cables and wires involved in the antenna
ins
tallation. Wires can be cut to required length.
Wiring between PAB/SAB
There are only two (2) wires connected between PAB and SAB. They are 1) RG59 coax cable and
2) SA
B Light cable (22 AWG 4-conductor (STP) (5594))
RG59 Coax Cable:
A 3m[10ft] long, one end pre-terminated RG59 coaxial cable is packed with SAB antenna. It
connects the coupler boards (J5) in the primary antenna (PAB) and in the secondary antenna
(SAB). It is recommended to leave the pre-terminated end at the SAB. The installer has to
terminate the other end at the primary antenna.
1. Strip the coax cable jack off for about 19mm [3/4in] at the un-terminated end, as shown
in Figure 6 RG 59 Coax cable wiring diagram (A).
2. Separate and twist the shield braid tightly, leaving now loose strands.
3. Strip the center conductor to about 6 mm [1/4 in], insert it into connector pin #1, then
tighten it with screwdriver.
4. Insert the twisted shield braid to the connector pin #2, and secure it with screwdriver.
5. Clamp 2 ferrite cores on each ends (PAB and SAB).
Mo
dified TR4024 electronics may be used in the first few shipments.
