3TECH NOTE: LIGHTNING PROTECTION GUIDE
Introduction
This Technical Note provides you with detailed instructions for setting up lightning
arrestors to protect your Motorola PTP 400 and 600 Series bridges. The
recommendations provided in this Technical Note will provide the best protection
from the harmful effects of electro-magnetic discharge (EMD). The Surge Arrestor
(ALPU-ORT) should be used on all PTP 400 and 600 bridge interface ports, including
the Ethernet, T1/E1 and power ports. Specifically, this document includes:
• Illustrations showing the placement of your arrestors and the recommended
components for installation
• Diagrams indicating the proper wiring procedures

4TECH NOTE: LIGHTNING PROTECTION GUIDE
Recommended Tower/Mast Installation for
Motorola PTP 400 and 600 Series Bridges
(Applicable to ODUs marked MODIFICATION STRIKE 2 and above)
The recommended components for protecting an installation are:
• Grounding Kit – Andrew Type 223158 (www.andrew.com)
• Screened CAT5e cable, also known as Shielded Twisted Pair or Shielded CAT5e
– DO NOT USE “NON-shielded CAT5e cable.” It will not provide any grounding
points or protect from static discharge or lightning strike. There may be a local
regulatory requirement to cross bond the CAT5e cable at regular intervals to the
mast. This may be as frequent as every 33 feet (10 meters).
• Surge Arrestor – ALPU-ORT
• Grounding Stake
• 8 AWG Grounding Cable (minimum gauge)
NOTE: Lightning damage is not covered under the Motorola Warranty. When correctly installed, the
recommendations on this page and in this Technical Note give the user the best protection from the
harmful effects of lightning. However, 100% protection is not implied or possible.
For Use with Tower/Mast Installations
