Outdoor Installation of the Signal Antenna 
 
Grounding the Signal Antenna 
If you decide to install the Signal Antenna outdoors, it must be properly grounded.  
This will help protect your property against lightning strikes during a lightning 
storm.   
The installation must be in accordance with Article 810 of the National Electric 
Code (NEC).  A listed antenna discharge unit must be provided for the lead-in 
coaxial cable per NEC article 8.10.20 or the shield of the coaxial cable must be 
permanently and effectively grounded in accordance with NEC article 8.10.21.  
Please consult a professional installer or electrician for more information.  
Additional instructions and hardware are also available in the Wi-Ex Outdoor 
Installation and Grounding Kit (Part# YX012). 
 
 
Securing Cable With a Drip Loop 
If you install the Signal Antenna outdoors, create a drip loop with the coaxial cable at 
the point where the cable enters the building through an outside wall.  This can be 
done by twisting and securing the cable into a loop (no less than 4” across) near the 
entry point.  This will help prevent moisture from gathering at entry point and leaking 
into the building.  Consult a professional installer if you need more information.  
Additional instructions are also available in the Wi-Ex Outdoor Installation and 
Grounding Kit (Part # YX01
2
). 
 
Pre-installation Guidelines 
Outdoor installation is preferred when a home is In an area of weak outdoor signal 
area (generally 1 to 2 bars as indicated on the cell phone). 
Avoid any drilling or nailing directly into the roof.  This could allow water to leak into 
your home and cause damage. 
Choosing to mount the antenna into fascia will not compromise your roof and 
places the antenna higher above ground level.
