7.7.8 Mounting the PTP 400 Series Bridge PIDU Plus

Motorola recommends that you mount the PIDU Plus on a wall or other suitable mounting

surface. This prevents the unit from being knocked or kicked and can help maintain link

availability. Ensure that the reset switch can be accessed when mounting the unit.

Step 1: Fix the PIDU Plus to the wall using the lugs provided.

Step 2: Make connections as per Section 7.7.6

WARNING:

The PIDU Plus is not waterproof and should be mounted away from sources of

moisture. If mounted outdoors, the unit should be mounted in a rain proof enclosure,

preferably ventilated.

It is also recommended that you fit a drip loop on the PIDU Plus to ODU cable to ensure that

any moisture that runs down the cable into the cabinet or enclosure cannot enter the PIDU

Plus. As shown in Figure 23. The network connection and mains cable should be treated in

the same way if there is a risk that they can carry moisture to the PIDU Plus.
