Chapter 4: Installation
CHAPTER 4: INSTALLATION
4.1 Soft Installation
Perform a “soft” installation of all components to test signal coverage and oscillation before making the installation
permanent. Avoid making holes or other permanent attachments during this phase. Refer to Chapter 5 for
conguration and testing instructions. Proceed with nal installation once conguration and testing are complete.
4.2 Exterior Antenna
Mount the exterior antenna in the location you selected during the planning process. Be sure to follow all of the
instructions included with the antenna to ensure a safe installation. Remember:
• Omni-directional antennas, like the SC-588W, must be mounted vertically.
• Directional antennas, like the SC-530W Yagi antenna, must be mounted horizontally and aimed toward a cellular
tower (line of sight)
Follow the instructions for installation of your chosen antenna. Once completed:
1. Connect one end of SC-400 cable to the antenna and hand tighten.
2. Run the cable along the planned route.
3. Install a properly grounded SC-LP lightning protector.
4. Seal any holes you make in the outside of the building with caulking or sealant.
