Installation Guidelines

Proper installation of your Antenna Cable Kit is crucial for maintaining optimal performance and longevity. Follow these guidelines to ensure a successful setup:

1. Avoid Sharp Bends: When routing the coaxial antenna cable, ensure there are no sharp bends or kinks. Sharp bends can increase signal loss and degrade performance.
2. Secure Routing: Use cable clamps or ties to secure the cable along its path, preventing movement that could cause wear or signal interference.
3. Connector Handling: Handle the TNC connectors with care to avoid damage. Ensure they are properly seated on both the antenna and the mast.

Weatherproofing Your Antenna Connection

Protecting the connections between the Mast Antenna and the antenna cable is essential to prevent moisture and saltwater intrusion, which can lead to corrosion and signal degradation. Follow these tips for effective weatherproofing:

• Use Coax-Seal Tape: Apply Coax-Seal Tape, a hand-moldable plastic tape, around the exposed connectors to create a waterproof barrier.
• Regular Inspection: Periodically check the weatherproofing to ensure it remains intact and effective, especially after harsh weather conditions.
• Additional Sealing: For added protection, consider using silicone sealant around the connectors after applying Coax-Seal Tape.
