Cable Routing & Connecting Guidelines
CAUTION: To reduce electrical interference from other electrical
wiring and any on-board equipment with strong magnetic fields such
as radar equipment, radio transmitters, engines, generators, etc.,
separate the cables by at least 1m (3'). Ensure that all the cable
shields are appropriately grounded.
CAUTION: Do not remove the waterproof connector(s) to ease
cable routing. Removing the waterproof connector will void the
Gateway’s warranty.
CAUTION: Be careful not to tear the cable jackets when passing
them through compartments, bulkheads, or walls. Use grommets
to prevent chaffing.
CAUTION: Coil any excess cable(s) and secure with cable ties to
prevent damage.
