Link CX-24 User’s ManualVersion 1.0 Page 30 February 2004After completing this section, the Link CX-24 radio is configured and partially tested, and is ready to installas described in Section 2.11.2.11 Mounting the Link CX-24The Link CX-24 radio is a sealed unit that installs on a pole.Notes: A pole is not supplied with the Link CX-24 and should be in place before attemptinginstallation.The body performing the installation is the responsible for preventing any contact or inductionwith mains lines at any voltage.All connectors must be properly water-proofed with all-weather electrical tape such asPermagum, or equivalent. Do not use Silicon glue.2.11.1 Installing the Link CX-24 Adapter BracketThe Link CX-24 unit is installed by using an “X”-shaped adaptor bracket that is secured to the pole with apole mounting bracket and a pole clamp. Figure 2.12 shows the components provided to mount the LinkCX-24 unit.Figure 2.12 – Link CX-24 Mounting Components28 Select the Link CX-24 PolarizationSince the Link CX-24 is equipped with an integral antenna, how the adapter bracket (X) is mounted to theunit determines whether it is horizontally or vertically polarized. The Link CX-24 mounting brackets aredesigned to preserve the selected polarization until the ODU is removed from its adapter bracket (X).The Link CX-24 ODU has a polarization label on the back. It is an arrow indicating the antennapolarization of the unit. See Figure 2.13. When attaching the adapter bracket (X) to the ODU for verticalpolarization ensure that the brackets serrated edge lies in a vertical pointing in the same direction as thepolarization arrow on the ODU. See Figure 2.14. For horizontal polarization the ODU should be rotatedthrough 90 degrees while keeping the adapter bracket (X) orientation fixed.Note: Both ends of the radio link must be identically polarized. The planned polarization is availablefrom the filled-out copy of the Radio Link Planning Worksheet from Section 2.8.Mounting HardwareAdaptor (X)BracketPole ClampPole MountingBracket |
