Applying Coax Seal Tape

You must weather seal all coaxial connections using the Coax-Seal tape provided in the mounting kit.
Coax connections that are not properly sealed permit moisture to enter the connection, which leads to
performance degradation or link problems.
The following connectors must be weather sealed:
F-connectors, located at the access point and each grounding block.
R-TNC antenna connectors, when using the access point with an external antenna.
Do not use only plastic electrical tape on the connectors because it deteriorates during long-term

exposure to ultraviolet light and extreme weather.
To apply Coax Seal, follow these steps:
Step 1
Make sure that the coaxial cables, connectors, and the connector area are clean and dry.
Peel the paper backing from a 10-inch length of Coax-Seal tape.
Step 2
Wrap each access point connector with the tape, starting at the coaxial cable, extending across the

To prevent damage to the access point or power injector, connect all coax cables from the
power injector to the access point and connect the power jack to the power injector before
applying power.
The grounding block must be connected to the building's grounding system by # 14 AWG copper
wire or larger.

To simplify removal of the connector in the future, you can first wrap the connector with a good
grade of electrical tape before applying the Coax-Seal. You should tightly wrap the electrical
tape and overlap each turn at least 25 percent for full coverage.
