Installing ODUs 6–25
RT installation
Lightning protection is provided by grounding the ODU as stated
above and installing a lightning arrestor where the IFL cable
enters the roof (as explained in section 4.8). The ODU ground
and IFL lightning arrestor must both be bonded to the same
ground (reference) point.
Connect the IFL to the ODU as shown in figure 6-24.

Do not apply permanent weatherproofing until the RT has
been commissioned and tested. If the weather is wet or windy,
a temporary tape seal is recommended. Weatherproofing is
covered in section 8.1.
At this point, antenna installation is complete, and the antenna is
visually pointed. Later, when you commission the RT, you will use
a voltmeter to electronically point the antenna as accurately as
possible.
