and cabinet to an electrical ground. Make sure the system is correctly grounded and power is off when
installing, configuring, and connecting components.
* Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere:
Do not operate the equipment in explosive environments or in the presence of flammable gases. Operating
this equipment in such an environment causes a definite safety hazard.
* Keep away from living circuits:
Operating personnel must at all times observe all safety regulations. Do not replace components or make
adjustment inside the equipment with any power supply turned on. Under certain conditions, dangerous
potentials may exist in the power supplies even with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, always
remove the power and discharge a circuit before touching it.
1.3 Iridium Satellite Network

The Iridium satellite network is comprised of 66 low-earth orbiting (LEO), cross-linked satellites, providing
voice and data coverage over Earth’s entire surface.
At only 476 mi (780 km) from the earth, the proximity of Iridium’s LEO network means pole-to-pole
coverage, a shorter transmission path, stronger signals, lower latency, and shorter registration time than
with GEO satellites. The network is considered a meshed constellation of interconnected, cross-linked
satellites so that each satellite “talks” with the other nearby satellites in front, behind, and adjacent orbits.
In space, each Iridium satellite is linked to up to four others creating a dynamic network that routes traffic
among satellites to ensure global coverage, even when traditional local systems are unavailable.

Chapter 4. Planning Installation
The antenna installation requires precaution and safety measures. Failure to follow the correct installation
process may lead to injury of the installer and/or cause damage to the system. In order to maximize the
performance of the system, a thorough review of this installation guide is strongly recommended, as well as
executing the installation process as it is noted in this manual.
4.1 Selecting Installation Site

The antenna should be placed in an area on-board of the vessel with an unobstructed view extending
from (at least) -30° below the horizontal surface in all azimuth direction. When the antenna is transmitting,
obstacles in way of the beam path will cause decreased satellite signal strength. The antenna unit should
have direct line-of-sight with the desired satellite without any obstacles in the beam path. Certain minimum
distances between the antenna and other onboard devices must also be considered during installation.
Do not place the antenna near to a funnel because smoke deposits can cause corrosion of the antenna. In
addition, the deposit can result in any malfunction of the antenna.
Do not place the antenna where there is a direct spray of seawater to avoid percolating any water into the
vent hole.
4.1.1 Avoiding RF Interference

Do not install the antenna near the high power shortwave radar. Most radar transmitters emit RF energy
within an elevation range of -15° to +15°. For this reason, It is recommended to position the antenna at least
4.6 m (15.09 feet) away from any radars (s-band, c-band, and x-band radar up to 50kW).

Installing ADU
5.2 ADU Mounting Hole Pattern

Use the supplied mounting template when drilling mounting holes on the mast. The hole placement for the
antenna must match the mounting hole pattern on the template.
The lower radome has two types of industry-standard mounting holes, each with four mounting points. This
hole pattern is compatible with other companies' mounting holes. Select one of the two mounting types to
secure the antenna to the desired mounting surface.
• Inner Hole Type: Mount the antenna using 'Inner Drill Holes' (with M6 Bolts). Intellian offers the
Antenna Pole Mount Kit (separate purchase) that uses Inner Holes (with M6 Bolts) to mount the antenna
on a pole.
• Outer Hole Type: Mount the antenna using 'Outer Drill Holes' (with M10 Bolts). Make a cut-out in the
flange using the 'Cutting Hole for Cable Connector' patten to avoid hiding the cable connector. Make
a cut-out in the flange using the 'Cutting Hole for Vent Hole' patten to avoid hiding the vent hole.
WARNING
When reusing an existing mast, check the condition of holes on the mast and make sure those are
WARNING
proper to use compared to the hole locations and sizes printed on the mounting template.
NOTE: This is a real-size template. Make sure the hole

5.6 Connecting RF Cable to Antenna

The cable must be routed from the antenna and through various areas of the ship to end up at the Below
Deck Unit. When pulling the cables in place, avoid sharp bends, kinking, and excessive force. After
placement, seal the deck penetration gland and tie the cable securely in place. The cable bracket must
be installed on the mast to fix the relevant cable. The gooseneck must be installed on the side of the mast
to protect the relevant cable against water. The supplied RF cable connector has the rubber grommet to
protect inside the ADU from any water.
