2 Feed one end of the coaxial cable up through the bottom of the antenna cover and attach the
BNC connector to the base of the mast.
3 Slide the mast down into the cover until it fits.
4 Rotate the mast until the threaded hole in the base of the mast aligns with the set screw hole in
the cover. Tighten the set screw.
5 Route the coaxial cable along the bottom edge of the plate between the cover and the wall
plate.
6 Tie the cable to the mounting plate.
7 Insert the plastic plug into the base of the cover to keep moisture out.
8 Feed the coaxial cable through the wall to the surge protector on the interior wall.
9 This procedure is complete.
Note: The total length of the coaxial cables from the outdoor antenna to the base
station must not exceed 10 m (33 ft.).
