10.7 Installation

The section covers the generic installation instructions for the Connectorized versions of the
PTP 300 Series point-to-point wireless Ethernet bridges. The actual installation procedure will
depend on antenna choice, cable choice, required antenna separation etc.
Sections 16.2.8 "PTP 54300 FCC Antenna Restrictions" and 16.3.8 "PTP 58300 FCC
Antenna Restrictions" show a wide variety of antennas that can be used with the
Connectorized PTP 300 Series bridge.

10.7.1 Cables and Connectors

Cables should be selected using the above criteria. However it should be noted that a cable
of a type similar to LMR400 is a lot more difficult to handle and route than a cable of a type
similar to LMR100.
Motorola recommends the use of weatherproof connectors -- preferably, ones that come
supplied with adhesive lined heat shrink sleeve that is fitted over the cable/connector
interface.
The connectors required at the Connectorized PTP 300 Series bridge end of the antenna
cables are N-Type Male.
The connectors required at the antenna end of the antenna cables is dependant on the
antenna type chosen.

10.7.2 Tools

The tools required for mounting a Connectorized PTP 300 Series bridge unit are the same as
those required for an Integrated PTP 300 Series bridge detailed in Section 6.3 "Preparation".
The tools required for mounting the antennas are specific to the antenna chosen. The installer
should refer to the antenna manufacturer's instructions.
