Waterproofing antenna cables and connectors

Make sure that the antenna, antenna extension cables and arrestor wring including the ground-

ing cable are connected properly. Protect the connectors and the arrestor with tape. As described

in C5.4.1 Mounting ISA100.11a Antenna to YFGW510, wind self-bonding tape and vinyl tape

around connections.

Fastening antenna wiring

After taping, fasten the cables to a solid structure to protect against vibration and wind. Ensure

that the radii of bends in the cables do not fall below the limits above.

C5.4.3 Installation and Wiring of Wireless LAN Antenna

The wireless LAN antenna must be connected to YFGW510 using an antenna extension cable in

order to prevent interference with the ISA100.11a antenna and to mount the antenna vertically. To

fasten the antenna, use the brackets provided with the antenna extension cable.
Basically, the wireless LAN antenna must be at least 1 m away from the ISA100.11a antenna.

In a wireless LAN redundant model, the wireless LAN antennas must be at least 1m away from

each other. When wireless LAN antennas or the ISA100.11a antenna is located near a mounting

pipe or any other metal object, allow clearance of at least 30 cm.

n

Installing wireless LAN antennas

Install the wireless LAN antenna in an appropriate location for wireless communication, referring

to requirements on distance from the ISA100.11a antenna, and C3.1 Requirements for Installa-

tion Locations. Make sure that the mounting of the antenna on a 2-inch pipe has enough strength

to withstand strong winds and vibration. The antenna must be kept upright.
l

Fastening wireless LAN antenna

Fasten the wireless LAN antenna to the pipe using the brackets provided with the antenna. When

mounting on a vertical pipe, make sure that the antenna stands higher than the top of the pipe.
