Sea-Connect

Introduction - Introduzione
Contents - Contenuto
Sea-Connect is a wideband antenna that provides coverage for 3G/4G/LTE and WLAN systems in a
compact and waterproof design, ideal for any type of boat. Excellent performance with VSWR less
than 1.5:1 in all 3G and 4G bands. The frequencies supported are 698-2700 MHz covering all major
bands: 4G, 3G, AWS, LTE, CLR, DCS, IMT, ISM, PCS, WCDMA, WCS, WiFi, WiMax, Cellular.
Easy to install both on standard 1” x 14 threaded mounts and on deck as a permanent, through-
hole mount solution. The UV stable casing provides outstanding corrosion resistance in the
harshest environments. The antenna terminates in an N type female connector.
La nuova antenna multibanda Sea-Connect garantisce una eccellente copertura per 3G/4G/LTE
e per sistemi WLAN, il tutto incluso in un design compatto e waterproof ideale per ogni tipo di
imbarcazione. Le prestazioni eccellenti sono confermate da valori VSWR inferiori a 1.5:1 per le
bande 3G e 4G. Grazie a una copertura di banda completa da 698-2700 MHz l’antenna Sea-Connect
è perfettamente adatta a tutte le seguenti applicazioni: 4G, 3G, AWS, LTE, CLR, DCS, IMT, ISM, PCS,
WCDMA, WCS, WiFi, WiMax, Cellular.
L’antenna può essere installata sia su base standard con attacco 1” x 14 sia direttamente su deck
in modo stabile con foro per cavo passante.
L’involucro è resistente a raggi UV per prevenire il deterioramento del colore e resistente
all’ambiente marino. L’antenna termina con un connettore di tipo N femmina.

Antenna installation - Installazione dell’antenna
Install the antenna in accordance with the following procedures to insure maximum performance
of the antenna.
► The antenna should be installed in the place where is an all round clear view of the horizon and
as high as possible.
► Please keep clear the antenna from any obstacles.
► Use only high quality low-loss coaxial cable to reduce signal attenuation caused by the cable.
Cable type LMR-400 is highly recommended.
L’installazione dell’antenna deve procedere seguendo le presenti istruzioni per assicurarne la
massima performance.
► Installare l’antenna in una posizione con visuale totalmente aperta dell’orizzonte e il più in alto
possibile.
► Mantenere la visuale dell’antenna libera da ostacoli.
► Utilizzare unicamente cavi coassiali di elevata qualità a bassa perdita di segnale per evitare
attenuazioni che possano compromettere il funzionamento dell’antenna. È consigliato l’utilizzo del
cavo tipo LMR-400 per le sue proprietà conduttive anche ad elevate frequenze di funzionamento.
Installation type 1 - through-hole deck mounting
Installazione tipo 1 - montaggio su supercie piana
Use the mounting template (that you’ll nd in
the last page of this guide) to drill the three holes
on the at surface where it must be mounted.
Utilizzate la dima di montaggio (mounting
template) che trovate nell’ultima pagina di questa
guida per operare i tre fori sulla supercie piana
sulla quale volete installare l’antenna.

Tighten the screws for approx 1 cm, then insert the washers, the grower washers and the nuts.
Then tighten the nuts.
Avvitate le viti nei due fori di montaggio presenti nel basamento dell’antenna, avvitandoli per
circa 1 cm. Poi inserite le rondelle, le rondelle grower e i dadi di bloccaggio. Quindi serrate i dadi.

Run the coax cable through the central hole and t the N male connector on the termination
that goes to the antenna.

estremità da colegare all’antenna.

Connect the N male that you tted on the termination
of the coax cable to the N female on the bottom of the
antenna, then set the antenna on the surface in a way that
both screws enter into the holes that you drilled earlier.
Avvitate il connettore N maschio presente all’estremità del
