2. Site and Installation Requirements
RuggedCom® RuggedMAX™ 14 Installation Guide Rev 1.1
2. Site and Installation Requirements
2.1. Mounting Considerations
When choosing a mounting location, consider the available mounting structures and antenna
clearance. To provide better weather protection, the WiN7000 High Power Base Station should
be mounted with the connection panel facing downwards.
The base station is equipped with a mounting kit, which allows several mounting options:
• Poles: Attach the WiN7000 High Power Base Station to any pipe or pole with diameter 1.75"
to 10".
• Towers and Walls: Attach the WiN7000 High Power Base Station to any tower or wall that can
support the load of the unit.
The following antenna options are available:
• 2 × omni-directional antenna
• External sector dual slant ±45º antenna
• Two separate antennas
Before mounting the antennas, conduct a site survey to determine the optimal position for the
antennas. Observe the following guidelines:
• Mount the antennas at the highest point possible. Reception will increase according to the height
of the antennas.
• Mount the antennas in a place with as few obstacles as possible between the antennas and
the planned service area.
• To avoid interference, mount the antennas and base station as far as possible from antennas
of other devices and other base stations.
• To keep the cable from the base station to the antenna as short as possible, mount the antennas
as close as possible to the base station. Using a cable longer than 2 meters will result in greater
loss and more interference, as the cable will act as an antenna.
• Do not point the antennas directly at populated areas, closer than the distance allowed by
national regulations.
• Mount the antennas and base station in a place that allow for maintenance access to the unit.
• Mount the GPS antenna in a position where the whole sky is visible to the antenna. If the base
station is mounted on a wall and the GPS antenna is mounted on top of the base station, only
half of the sky will be visible to the antenna. This may not be enough for proper operation.

3.5. Weatherproofing
It is extremely important to weatherproof all outdoor cable connections. Weatherproofing the
connections at the outdoor unit and antennas prevents corrosion, prevents water from interfering
with the connection, and helps to keep the connection tight. Because cables also carry DC current,
the need for proper weatherproofing cannot be overstated.
We recommend the use of sealing tapes designed for outdoor use:
• 3M™ Scotch® Super 88 Electrical Tape
• Heavy-duty weather-, abrasion-, and UV-resistant rubber splicing tape or self-amalgamating
tape
Rubber mastic putty or duct sealing putty must also be used to complete the weatherproofing
where needed. We do not recommend silicon seal or glue. These materials are difficult to apply
accurately and are difficult to remove. Do not use PVC tape.
1. Weatherproofing Cable Connections
Most outdoor unit, antenna, or cable problems are caused by coaxial cable connections loosened
by vibration, allowing moisture to penetrate the connector interface. We recommend that all
outdoor unit-to-cable connections be weatherproofed using a procedure similar to the one
described below.
This method of weatherproofing must be completed on all external connections. If surge arrestors
are used, all the associated connections and arrestors must be completely wrapped with splicing
tape or self-amalgamating tape.
Before waterproofing, ensure all connectors are correctly tightened. Ensure the
connector and cables are free of foreign substances such as oil, water, grease,
and dirt. Ensure that the cable extends below the connector to which it is attached,
providing a path for water to follow away from the connected device.
Procedure 3.4. Weatherproofing Cable Connectors
1. Begin to wrap the rubber-splicing or self-amalgamating tape. Start as close to the equipment
body as possible. Stretch and wind the tape around the connector housing, ensuring there
are no gaps in the tape.
Figure 3.16. Wrapping the Connector with Rubber-splicing or Self-amalgamating Tape
3. Installation Procedures
RuggedCom® RuggedMAX™ 30 Installation Guide Rev 1.1
2. Tightly wrap the connector and the cable. Overlap the tape, without gaps, all the way along
the connector. Continue wrapping the tape 25 mm (1") onto the cable.
Figure 3.17. Wrapping the Cable with Rubber-splicing or Self-amalgamating Tape
3. For UV protection of the rubber splicing tape, wrap two layers of electrical tape on top of the
rubber splicing tape.
Figure 3.18. Wrapping the Connector with Electrical Tape
4. Work mastic putty or duct sealing putty between the connector and the body of the radio or
antenna. Ensure the putty fills any gaps not covered by the tape.
