Antenna Cabling and Accessories
Antenna Cable |
![]() |
The antenna cable is used to connect the antenna to the lightning arrester. Antenna cable is weatherproof and of suitable size and ruggedness to provide some mechanical protection against damage. The antenna cable must be suitable length to connect the antenna to lightning arrester. Antenna cables are typically terminated by N-Male connectors at each end. The antenna cable type used will depend on the length of the cable. Typical antenna cable sizes used include LMR400 for lengths up to 75′ and LDF4 for longer lengths. Make sure antenna cable is necessary length including a drip loop. Excess cable lengths can be coiled up under the panel. |
Lightning Arrester |
![]() |
The lightning arrester can be mounted on the enclosure (bulkhead mount) or surface mounted and are bonded to ground. Lightning arrestors are typically N-Female connections. |
Radiomodem |
![]() ![]() |
The RF connector on the device depends on the model of RF device. RF connectors used on devices typically include N-Female, TNC-Female, MCX-Female, SMA-Female. |
