Access Point Hardware Installation Remote GPS Cable • The mounting pipe for the RGPS head should be mounted vertically with less than five degrees of tilt. • It is recommended that the RGPS head be installed using the supplied mounting mast and mounting hardware. Care should be taken to ensure that the RGPS chassis does not come into contact with any metal surfaces. Failure to properly isolate the RGPS chassis from other conductive surfaces can lead to RGPS head failure.

Access Point Hardware Installation Table 3-8 RF GPS Cable Local GPS Antenna Mounting Considerations Heading2 1 The mounting pipe for the Local GPS Head should be mounted vertically with less than five (5) degrees of tilt. 2 The Local GPS Head requires a clear view of the sky, preferably to within ten (10) degrees of the horizon in all directions. The more sky that is observed increases the number of potential satellites that can be tracked, resulting in better Local GPS performance.
