Installing mast mounts 5–11
RT installation
In some cases, you may be able to mount an ODU to an existing
structure, such as a tower built to support communications
antennas.
The key factors for determining if an existing structure can be
used as mast are that the structure must:
• Be securely attached to the building (and capable of
sustaining specified wind loadings).
• Have an outside diameter of 2.0 to 4.5 inches.
• Meet line of sight (LOS) requirements.
Important: In addition to these criteria, the structure must also
meet other requirements listed in the Hub and Remote Terminal
Site Preparation Guide.
