Weatherproofing RF Antenna Connectors and Enclosure Connections
Step 1. Connecting Cable Assembly to Antenna/Enclosure
Attach RF cable assembly to antenna/enclosure by fastening the N-type male connector to the N-type female connector. Notes: Ensure both connectors are clean and dry. Hand-tighten firmly.
  


Step 2. Sealing the Connector Assembly Buy Coax-seal (rubber tape)
Tightly wrap the connectors with 2 layers of rubber tape (butyl). Notes: Rubber tape should seal entire connection and extend 1 inch beyond antenna connector/cable assembly. Coax-seal (rubber tape) works very well in this application.


Step 3. Covering Rubber Tape with Electrical Tape
Tightly wrap the rubber tape with 2 layers of electrical tape. Note: Electrical tape should extend 1 inch beyond rubber tape to ensure full coverage.
