Proxim TSUNAMI CPN 65756B 用户手册

Most problems associated with wireless outdoor installations are related to degrading performance due to 

corrosion of the antenna cable and cable connectors.  To avoid this type of problem, you must always seal 

the cable connectors that are located outdoors using the weatherproofing tape provided. 

You are advised to seal the connectors only after you have verified optimal alignment of the antennas using 

the Link Test as described in the documentation that comes with the Tsunami MP.11. Doing so lets you 

adjust antenna placement and cable routing without removing the tape. 

1.  Prepare the cable and connectors so that they are free from dust, dirt and grease. 

2.  Attach the tip of the weatherproofing tape to the cable just above the connector.  Holding the tape in its 

position, now stretch the tape and wind it half-overlapped around the cable and connectors to form a 

void-free joint.  The degree of stretch may vary in different sections of the joint, as long as the overlaps 

accomplish a void-free application. 

 

  

  

  

  

 

 

3.  To protect the weatherproofing stretch tape from the effects of Ultra-Violet (UV) radiation (for example, 

from direct sunlight), you should protect the joint with two half-overlapped layers of any vinyl plastic 

electrical tape. Alternatively, you can apply silicone sealer to protect the weatherproofing tape from 

sunlight, rain and other weather conditions. 

Direct grounding of the antenna mast, Tsunami MP.11a hardware and surge arrestor is very important. 

Note:  A safety grounding system is necessary to protect your Tsunami MP.11a hardware from lightning 

strikes and the build-up of static electricity.
