1. Methods to use small and large O-rings are shown in the following
table. Two (small and large) O-rings are attached in 18 to 52 GHz band
Andrew/RFS direct mount antenna. 11/13/15 GHz band antenna does
not have a small O-ring (Small O-ring is not used for Andrew/RFS direct
mount antenna). If the small O-ring is used for ODU direct mount
installation, a gap may occur between ODU and antenna for RF
interface. Therefore it may happen transmit or receive level down.
2. Do not apply silicon grease at O-ring.

CAUTIONS:
1. For connecting the OMT to the antenna, the circular type waveguide
flange of the antenna is applied to the system. When the V/H flange is
mounted to the antenna, it must be changed to a circular type.
2. When mounting the ODU to the OMT, confirm the polarization for main
master and sub master ODU. The installation of the corresponding
ODUs in the opposite station must have the same polarization in order
to make into line main master and sub master MODEMs.

1. Secure the bracket and handle to the OMT.

CAUTIONS
1. Tighten all screws with lighter torque at first, then full torque as
specified.
2. If either ODU is demounting (for purposes of replacing, etc.), apply the
attached short plate onto the vacant port of the demounted OMT to
prevent the RF power leaking from the OMT, and to make it waterproof
and dustproof.
4. When installing the sub-master ODU, protect the main-master ODU
from the mechanical knocks in order to prevent the occurrence of bit
errors due to the microphonic properties.

100 m. (differential absolute delay time: within 500 ns)
2. When the N (Male) straight connector is attached to the I/F cable,
use of the TNC (Male) - N (Female) (NJ-TNCP-LA) L-shaped adapter
is needed to connect to the IDU.
3. Use shielded cables which are connected to the D-Sub/RJ-45
connector to suppress interference from affecting the signal and to
reduce electromagnetic radiation which may interfere with other

Safety Guideline for Microwave Radiation Hazard


The radiation levels of Microwave and Millimeter-wave that iPASOLINK series deal
with are very low, and no health hazard has been reported for them so far. However,
advanced countries that care much about health hazard have started regulating the
radiation levels. For EU countries, it is specified by EN50385. In order to follow the
regulation, operators should not work near by parabolic antenna if its transmitter is
activating. Especially, the radiation level of a specific area in front of antenna shows
higher radiation level. See the following illustration and Calculation Example 1.
Power density level in front of the antenna turns high along the antenna beam. Ensure
not to allow yourself radiated by beams anytime. Refer to Calculation Example 2
also.
