Attention Do not attach grounding cables to the ODU mounting bracket bolts, as this
arrangement will not provide full protection.
Fasten the ODU grounding cable to the top LPU using the M6 (small) lug. Tighten both nuts to a torque of 5
Nm (3.7 lb ft):
Select a tower or building grounding point within 0.3 meters (1 ft) of the ODU bracket. Remove paint from
the surface and apply anti-oxidant compound. Fasten the ODU grounding cable to this point using the M10
(large) lug.
If local regulations mandate the independent grounding of all devices, add a third ground cable to connect
the top LPU directly to the grounding system.
