NS2's and other outdoor radios can take care of themselves. I add a little seal around the cable exit on the bottom of the cover. The bullets make me a little nervous - I don't trust the grommet that comes with them - a little sealer on the back at the cable exit is a good idea.
This is how I was taught for RF connectors 3 layer process: Layer 1 - 3M Super33 or Super88 electrical tape over the entire connection extending 2" past the shrink wrap at both ends Layer 2 - 3M Mastic 2229 over the electrical tape - squeeze repeatedly to conform all of the seams to one contiguous seal Layer 3 - 3M Super33 or Super88 over the Mastic - this is to keep the mastic in place and for UV protection http://picasaweb.google.com/aircloud.com/AntennaCoaxSeal# -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Israel Lopez-LISTS Sent: Monday, March 01, 2010 9:46 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] Moisture Abatement Techniques Hey All, So how do you guys avoid getting water/moisture in your gear? I'm going to be standing up a 9 end-point network, with some Ubiquiti (Bullet2, Nanostation) gear, Directional & H-Pol Omni antennas, Polyphasers, Ethernet Lightning Arrestors, etc,. I'm not going to be able to travel to the site again in at least a year; its a rainy part of the world, so I'd like to prevent any damage to the gear as much as possible. Anything I should do to prevent moisture from getting into the gear? Or other protective measures... Teflon on the coax connectors, Electrical Tape on the Edges of the gear? If there was a place I could see some pictures of the implementations that would be good too. -Israel -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
