Chapter 4. Planning Installation

The antenna installation requires extreme precaution and safety measures given its size and weight. Failure to
follow the correct installation process may lead to injury of the installer and/or cause damage to the system. In
order to maximize the performance of the system, a thorough review of this installation guide is strongly
recommended, as well as executing the installation process as it is noted in this manual.
4.1 Selection of Installation Site

The system should be placed in an area onboard the vessel with little to no RF signal blockage. The
antenna unit should have direct line-of-sight with the desired satellite without any obstacles in the beam
path. Certain minimum distances between the antenna and other onboard devices must also be considered
during installation.
4.1.1 Minimize Satellite Blockage

Install the antenna in accordance with the following procedures to ensure maximum performance of the
antenna. The ideal antenna site should have a clear view of the horizon or satellite with all around clearance.
Make sure there are no obstacles within the EL range -15° to +115° from the center of the antenna.
Any obstacles can prevent the antenna from tracking the satellite signal.

5.4 Routing RF Cable on Mast (Example Only)

The cable must be routed from the antenna and through various areas of the ship to end up at the antenna
control unit. When pulling the cables in place, avoid sharp bends, kinking, and excessive force. After
placement, seal the deck penetration gland and tie the cable securely in place. The cable bracket must be
installed on the mast to fix the relevant cable. The gooseneck must be installed on the side of the mast to
protect the relevant cable against water.
WARNING
Ensure that cable has been run through watertight fittings to prevent water entry into the vessel when
installation is completed.
WARNING
NOTE
This is a general example of routing cables on the mast. The routing method is may differ
NOTE
depending on the ship's environment.
Option 1. Routing Cable on Outside of Mast
This method is generally recommended.

1. Route the cable from the gooseneck placed on the deck to the antenna as shown in the picture.
2. Maintain a sufficient cable length (at least 2 m) when routing the cable on the surface of the mast. After
connecting the cable to the connector on the radome, adjust the length and fix the cable on the cable
brackets using cable ties.

12.2 Appendix B. Important notice of waterproofing connector
12.2.1 Introduction
During antenna installation, it is important to ensure that once the cable is connected to the antenna, proper
waterproofing of the connector must be done with a self-amalgamating tape.
If you need any assistance, please contact Intellian Technical Support (support@intelliantech.com).
12.2.2 Outline of taping

Self-amalgamating tape comes with a protective,
plastic peel-away layer that allows the tape to rolled
and shipped. To waterproof a connector, you need
to begin by peeling away a portion of this protective
plastic layer and then start wrapping the tape around
it.
12.2.3 Procedure
1. Connect the cable to the connector to be
fully secured.
CAUTION
• DO NOT over-tighten the connector, nuts, or screws when mounting the antenna to prevent any
damage.
• DO NOT leave any cables loosen and non-fixed, especially for those installed outside of the antenna.
CAUTION
2. Apply tape over the connetor.

It is important to wrap the cable onto itself and
the best practice is to wrap the tape over itself by
50%, meaning that once you wrap your first layer
your second layer should overlap over half of the
first layer, and so on. This ensures that you get a
strong bond between the different layers of tape
that properly adhere to one another.
3. Ensure that the entire RF connector is taped

up as shown the picture right.
104
Appendix
WARNING
• Note that you cannot use ordinary electrical tape to waterproof the RF connector.
Only self-amalgamating tape is able to waterproof the connector properly.
• Failure to do so will result in rust and corrosion to the cable and its connector and this might end up
WARNING
damaging the antenna.
