1027145–0001 Revision E 5–8 Installing IFL cables
Hub installation
All AIReach Broadband IFL cables must connect to a
grounded lightning arrestor at the building penetration point,
as shown in figure 5-1 (page 5–3) and explained in this
section.
WARNING
To help avoid death, injury, or damage from
a lightning strike, you must install a
lightning arrestor where the IFL enters the
building.
Figure 5-4 identifies the components of a typical hub lightning
arrestor. The design illustrated here (see also figure 5-5) can
accommodate up to eight IFL cables for up to eight HTs.
