MO U N T I N GT H E RE P E A T E R

Once you determine that your chosen locations transmits and receives the

signal, continue with the installation by mounting the repeater. Mounting

hardware has been included for the most common installations (see ﬁgures on

pages 8 and 9 for instructions).

CAUTION: Any metal object can attract a lightning strike, including any

outside-mounted repeater. If lightning strikes your unit or strikes some-

where nearby, the unit’s internal electronics may suffer anywhere between

little to extensive damage. The unit itself has been designed with considerable

surge protection, but to safeguard nearby equipment and structures, we recom-

mend following local recommendations on properly grounding your

installation. For more information, contact your local lightning protection

authority and/or refer to the following articles:
