SYSTEM AND INSTALLATION GUIDE 2
Installation:
The multi-function mount provides a method for mounting the TCM Sector on a mast,
tower, or a roof mount and consists of two parts:
TCM Sector bracket—attaches to the back of the unit.
Mast bracket—attaches to the mast, tower, or roof mount.
The basic mounting procedure is shown below:
1. Mount the TCM Sector bracket to the mounting lugs on the
Sector.
2. Mount the mast bracket to the tower or mast using the supplied U-
bolts or appropriately sized user-supplied U-bolts.
3. Suspend the TCM Sector on to the mast bracket using the
support pins.
4. Secure the TCM Sector bracket to the mast bracket using the
supplied nuts, bolts, and washers (hand tighten).
5. Connect the ground wire to the outdoor mounted TCM Sector
using the supplied ground lug.
6. Connect the power cable to the power
7. Connect the data cable.
8. Tighten the nuts and bolts.

OUTDOOR INSTALLATION WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
LIVES MAY BE AT RISK!
Carefully observe these instructions and any
special instructions that are included with the
equipment you are installing.
IMPORTANT
Look over the site before beginning any installation, and anticipate possible
hazards, especially the following:
CONTACTING POWER LINES CAN BE LETHAL. Make sure no power lines
are anywhere where possible contact can be made. Antennas, masts, towers, guy wires or
cables may lean or fall and contact these lines.
People may be injured or killed if they are touching or holding any part of equipment when it
contacts electric lines.
Make sure there is NO possibility that equipment or personnel can come in contact directly
or indirectly with power lines.
Assume all overhead lines are power lines.
The horizontal distance from a tower, mast or antenna to the nearest power line should be
at least twice the total length of the mast/antenna combination.
This will ensure that the mast will not contact power if it falls either during installation or
later.
SYSTEM AND INSTALLATION GUIDE 4
TO AVOID FALLING,
USE SAFE PROCEDURES WHEN WORKING AT HEIGHTS ABOVE
GROUND.
Select equipment locations that will allow safe, simple equipment installation.
Don’t work alone. A friend or co-worker can save your life if an accident happens.
Use approved non-conducting ladders and other safety equipment. Make sure all
equipment is in good repair.
If a tower or mast begins falling, don’t attempt to catch it. Stand back and let it fall.
If anything such as a wire or mast does come in contact with a power line,
DON’T TOUCH IT OR ATTEMPT TO MOVE IT.
Instead, save your life by calling the power company.
Don’t attempt to erect antennas or towers on windy days.
MAKE SURE ALL TOWERS AND MASTS ARE SECURELY
GROUNDED, AND ELECTRICAL CABLES CONNECTED TO
ANTENNAS HAVE LIGHTNING ARRESTORS.
This will help prevent fire damage or human injury in case of lightning, static build-up, or
short circuit within equipment connected to the antenna.
The base of the antenna mast or tower must be connected directly to the building protective
Ground or to one or more approved grounding rods, using 1 OAWG ground wire and
corrosion- Resistant connectors.
Refer to the National Electrical Code for grounding details.
SYSTEM AND INSTALLATION GUIDE 5
IF A PERSON COMES IN CONTACT WITH ELECTRICAL POWER, AND
CANNOT MOVE DON’T TOUCH THAT PERSON, OR YOU MAY BE
ELECTROCUTED.
Use a non-conductive dry board, stick or rope to push or drag them so they no longer are in
contact with electrical power.
Once they are no longer contacting electrical power, administer CPR if you are certified,
and make sure that emergency medical aid has been requested.
