ASSEMBLING THE AA195PM TWO HOLE OUTDOOR POLE MOUNTING KIT
The AA195PM mounting kit contains everything required for pole mounting and weatherproofing the ESTeem Model 195E for
outdoor installations. The 195E with AA195PM mounting kit can be directly mounted to a round pole from 1.25” to a diameter of
2.25” OD. Any mounting structure greater than 2” requires hose clamp strapping run through the Pole Mount Brackets. The
mounting kit requires the following assembly:

195E POLE MOUNT GROUNDING PROCEEDURES
Mounting the 195E series radio modem outdoors requires proper grounding procedures to prevent damage to both the radio
hardware and the connected Ethernet and Serial peripherals. The case on the 195E series wireless modem is electrically
conductive, but the AA195 Pole Mount kit provides isolation from the connected structure. To bring the 195E case to a ground
potential with Earth ground and eliminate any static buildup on the case itself, the shield on the Ethernet cable is used to provide the
ground connection.
Outdoor Ethernet Cable
A critical component of this grounding protection system is the ESTeem AA09.1 outdoor, shielded CAT-5E Ethernet cable. This
cable provides three, necessary elements; Ethernet data, DC Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, and a ground from the 195E
case to the AA166 surge protector. The Ethernet cable is outdoor rated and protected from UV breakdown.
Installation
The following diagram outlines all the critical components and connections in the 195E series system. The Earth ground
connection to the surge protector must be installed to comply with local Electrical code requirements.

FRESNEL ZONE
The Fresnel zone shows the ellipsoid spread of the radio waves around the visual line-of-sight after they leave the antenna (see
figure above). This area must be clear of obstructions or the signal strength will be reduced due to signal blockage. Typically,
20% Fresnel Zone blockage introduces little signal loss to the link. Beyond 40% blockage, signal loss will become significant.
This calculation is based on a flat earth. It does not take into account the curvature of the earth. It is recommended for RF path
links greater than 7 miles to have a microwave path analysis done that takes the curvature of the earth and the topography of the
terrain into account.
Fresnel Zone Radius = 72.1 SQRT [(d1d2) / (F(d1 + d2)]
Units
Fresnel Zone Radius in feet.
d1 and d2 in statue miles
F in GHz
