QMA Connection (APX8500 MP/APX8500 HP Only)
APX8500 is using a quick disconnect connection called QMA. This does not require any
tightening.
• Ensure there is sufficient slack in the antenna cable.
• Ensure that the collar of the antenna cable plug does not bind.
• Engage the QMA cable plug onto the jack, listening for a click to ensure proper
engagement.
• Gently tug on the cable to ensure that it is engaged.
• To disengage, pull back on the cable plug’s collar and pull the cable straight off the jack.
