OUTDOOR CABLING COMPONENTS 
To connect your Tsunami MP.11a hardware to an outdoor antenna installation, you will need the following 
cabling components: 
▪ 
Surge arrestor 
▪ 
Low-loss antenna cables 
▪ 
One of the outdoor antennas described in Appendix C. 
When purchasing new Tsunami MP.11a products, each of these components will be equipped with standard 
N-type connectors. 
When ordering separate components, for example as a spare part or replacement to previously purchased 
Tsunami outdoor antenna equipment, carefully read the note on the following page to ensure that you order 
components with an N-type connector that matches the other parts of your outdoor antenna cabling system. 
SELECTING THE CORRECT CONNECTOR TYPE 
All cabling components of the Tsunami outdoor antenna system come with standard-N type connectors as 
depicted in the following table.
