4.1 Power cable
The power cable connects the external power supply to the power interface box.
When attaching the power cable, check the keying: the threads may engage slightly when the connector is rotated by
180° from the correct alignment. Ensure that the threading fully engages. If the power cable is correctly attached and
fully seated, the metal nut at the end of the cable will cover the gasket on the power box input.
⚠Incorrectly seating the power connector will likely result in a short circuit, which will damage the cable and
interface box.
4.2 RX in cable (LMR-195)
This LMR-195 cable connects the LNB to the antenna RX IN port. The cable requires a right-angle N-type connector at
the antenna end to maintain the low profile of the antenna without sharp or protruding cable bends. The connector has
standard N-type connectors at teach end.
4.3 TX cable
This N-type IF cable connects the BUC in the ODU to the TX Out of the modem within the IDU. The TX cable works in the
frequency range from 1050 MHz to 1700 MHz and passes a 10 MHz reference signal to the BUC. This protocol and the
cabling is dependent on the specific modem and BUC used for each solution. Kymeta provides an N-type to F-type
adapter to connect this cable to the modem.
4.4 RXcable
This N-type IF cable sends the L-Band (950 MHz to 2150 MHz) signal from the antenna to the modem and provides DC
power for the LNB. It connects the antenna RX OUT port to the modem primary RX IN port (Rx 1). The RX cable works in
the frequency range from 950 MHz to 2150 MHz and provides power for the LNB. Kymeta provides an N-type to F-type
adapter to connect this cable to the modem.
4.5 Ethernet cable
This cable connects the data interface box to port 1 on the modem. The Ethernet port is for a standard 10/100/1000
network and is the primary monitor and control (M&C) port. It supports multiple protocols for a web server (GUI), ACU-
Modem Interface (OpenAMIP™), and an M2M (machine-to-machine) RESTful API. Installation engineers can make
multiple connections with an external switch.

700-00064 revA Kymeta™ u7 terminal user manual — TRM-U7H and TRM-U7X configurations
5 u7 antenna automatic reboot schedule
The u7 antenna requires an automatic reboot every 24 hours (software version 1.0.0.2295 and 1.0.0.2210) or every 7
days (software version 1.1.0.3240 and later) to avoid potential failures in u7 antenna functionality, including loss of
service and/or performance degradation.
u7 antenna software versions 1.0.0.2295 and 1.0.0.2210 allow the operator to set the time of day when the 24-hour
automatic reboot occurs. Software versions 1.1.0.3240 and later allow the antenna operator to set the time of day and
the day of the week when the weekly automatic reboot occurs. Note that the automatic reboot cannot be disabled.
u7 antenna software version 1.4. 0.64 initiates an automatic reboot only if the system has been up for at least 6 days. If
the system restarted (either via a manual reboot or as a part of software update) within the 6-day time period before the
scheduled reboot, the scheduled reboot is skipped.
The u7 antenna detects the operator's time zone from the computer being used to set the time of day; that is, if the
operator's laptop is set to EST and the time of day is set to 3 AM, the automatic reboot will occur at 3 AM EST. If the
antenna changes time zones, the reboot time will need to be updated accordingly.

6 Over-the-air (OTA) updates
The Kymeta™ u7 antenna requires factory installed software to operate, which is pre-installed at the factory. Users with
software version 1.0.0.2210 or later can opt in to secure, automatic OTA updates as new software releases are made
available.
OTA updates are available to all Kymeta customers is their u7 antenna has access to the internet and Kymeta Cloud
Services. Ao KĀLO™network services subscription is not required to get OTA updates.
To enable OTA updates or update your software version to get OTA updates, contact Kymeta customer support.
6.1 OTAupdate process
1. The antenna checks on start-up to determine if an OTA update is available. The antenna performs this check
through secure web services calls to Kymeta Cloud Services.
2. If the antenna is eligible for an update, a package is downloaded and installed. If the antenna is not eligible, no
action is taken.
The u7 antenna operates normally during the OTA update process. The newly-installed software version takes effect on
the next restart of the antenna. Restart is triggered on completion of the software installation in version 1.1.0 and later.
Software version 1.0.0 reboots on the next scheduled reboot. You will experience a brief internet outage during the
restart.
✎It is not possible to monitor the status of the OTA download. However, you can verify the update has completed
by the software version number displayed in the top right corner of the web-based user interface. Refer to 700-
00006 Kymeta™ u7 antenna software user guide for details.
If the OTA update download is interrupted, the u7 antenna retries up to 10 times to successfully download the update
package. You will not see any indication of the activity. If after 10 attempts the download does not complete, it retries on
the next restart.
If the OTA update install is interrupted, the software reverts to the original version, and the antenna retries installation
on the next restart.
6.2 Software rollback
Contact Kymeta customer support if you want to roll back to a previous software version.
