IPB™ Weather Seal Boot System

The IPB™ weatherproof boot system works with the most popularRF coaxial cables and connector combinations.

The soft silicone weatherproofing boots replaces old fashioned,messy and difficult to use butyl and mastic tape weatherproofingmethods.

The IPB™ weatherproof boots attach easily and effortlessly andrequire only simple hand assembly for valuable time saving in thefield.

The boots can be easily disassembled and reassembled whenevernecessary.

IPB™ weatherproof boots are fully IP-68 rated and both RoHSand REACH Compliant.

Each boot is supplied in a convenient kit with a pouch of siliconelubricant to facilitate installation.

•The ultimate weather seal bootsystem

•Eliminates the need for oldfashioned,messy butyl or mastictape

•Compatible with the most popularcable and connector combinationsas well as female bulkheadconnector connections

•Fully IP-68 Rated

•Convenient individual pack withlubricant included

GK-S400TT (Standard Ground Kit, Tinned Version for LMR-400)

1) Verify that all parts are present. (1) Pre-formed tinned copper ground strap (1) ground lead assembly (2) ¼” brass lock washers

(2) ¼” brass nuts (1) Roll 2-1/2” x 24” (610mm) butyl

mastic (1) Roll ¾” x 20’ (6.1m) PVC tape (1) heat shrink tube (1) Field-crimp 3/8” 2-hole lug (2) 3/8” x 1-1/4” slotted bolts (2) 3/8” lock washers (2) 3/8” nuts (2) 3/8” flat washer

2) Remove approximately 2” of outer jacket at the point of grounding, using a GST-400A mid-span strip tool. Lock the tool onto the cable by rotating the knurled area in relation to the center cutting block. Spin the tool around the cable in the direction of the cutting blade to remove outer jacket.

Times Microwave Systems www.timesmicrowave.com PH: (203)949-8400

3) Locate the grounding clip. Make sure that it is detached from the grounding cable and has not been deformed. Open the clip slightly and snap it onto the cable.

4) Open the clip slightly and snap it onto the cable.

Times Microwave Systems www.timesmicrowave.com PH: (203)949-8400

5) Attach the grounding cable to the grounding clip using the ¼” brass nuts and lock washers. Tighten the nuts using a 7/16” open end wrench.

6) Cut four 2” pieces of butyl rubber mastic. Wrap a piece both above and below the ground clip as shown in the picture. Fold one of the 2” pieces of butyl rubber in half and place over the riveted ground lug and brass hardware to act as a filler. Wrap the final 2” piece of butyl rubber around the cable as shown.

9) Apply one layer of butyl rubber mastic, overlapping the coax jacket by at least 1” on each end of the exposed outer conductor. Overlap each wind by one half of the width of the mastic. Cut any remaining mastic and dispose of it properly.

10) Apply three overlapping layers of PVC electrical tape, extending 1” beyond the previous layer with each wrap. Note: The wraps must begin on the lower end of the cable to give each wrap a shingle effect.

Bundled CableBundled CableHigh Quality LMR® Low LossFlexible 50 Ohm Coax FeederCable, Bundled Under aCommon Outer Jacket forMultiple Run Applications:• Smart Antenna Feeders• IF & RF Runs to Tower Mounted Amplifiers for:— Cellular— Point to Point— Broadband Wireless— Microwave Backhaul— WiMax— LTE Systems

LMR® Bundled Cable is a spiral configuration of multipleLMR®-400 or smaller LMR® cables under a common polyethyleneouter jacket. This innovative design acts as the perfect feedercable for applications requiring multiple runs, such as on towers or building top sites. A unique, patented grounding fixture grounds the outer shields of each cable and a ruggedend cap seals the bundle to prevent moisture ingress at thebreak-out point.

LMR® Bundled Cable Tools GK-BC Series Grounding Kits

All outdoor antenna feeder runs should be grounded at theirlowest point just prior to entering the base station or radioenclosure. Depending on the height of the tower run, additionalground points may be required (see table below).

Times Microwave Systems has developed a unique, patentedgrounding fixture that is both economical and easy to install.This ground fixture effectively grounds all the individual cables in the bundle, while requiring only one bonding cable per fix-ture to be fastened to the tower.

Ground Kits are also available for the LMR-BC400-7,LMR-BC240-12 and the LMR-BC300-12.

Grounding:1.) The outer conductors of individual cables must be

grounded/bonded to an adequate ground.2.) All installations regardless of tower height (TH) should be

grounded just prior to entering the equipment building or shelter. The cable should also be grounded at the tower base. The ground at the tower base and just prior to building entry should be as close to the ground plane as possible.

3.) For towers greater than 30 meters high, additional grounding is required (see table above).

LMR® Bundled Cable

EC-BC Series End Cap Kits

WK-U Weather Seal Kit

Various Bundled Cable Configurations

It is important that the ground kit be properly weathersealed. This bundled cable process provides labor savings andincreased reliability. Composed of six rolls of Butyl Rubber tapeand three rolls of black polyvinyl tape, the WK-U Weather SealKit provides everything necessary to properly seal one installedground fixture.

The LMR® bundled cable tool package contains a number ofunique products designed for easy use and long life. The ST-BC-1and ST-BC-2 make up a universal outer sheath removal tool setthat can be used with any of our bundled cables. Custom sheathremoval tools are available for the LMR-BC240-12, LMR-BC300-12 and the LMR-BC400-9.

The GST-240A, 300A, and 400A inner cable jacket removaltools can easily accomplish the otherwise challenging task ofremoving the outer jacket from the internal LMR-240, 300 and400 cables. Times Microwave Systems offers weather seal break out caps

for a number of the LMR bundled cables. These kits consistof a hard ABS plastic split shell with stainless steel screws, asilicone rubber split cushion and a silicone rubber gasket.The split cushion is formed over the inner cables and theshell is then positioned over the transition so that the end ofthe outer jacket of the cable is roughly in the middle of theshell.

Bundled CableBundled CableHigh Quality LMR® Low LossFlexible 50 Ohm Coax FeederCable, Bundled Under aCommon Outer Jacket forMultiple Run Applications:• Smart Antenna Feeders• IF & RF Runs to Tower Mounted Amplifiers for:— Cellular— Point to Point— Broadband Wireless— Microwave Backhaul— WiMax— LTE Systems

LMR® Bundled Cable is a spiral configuration of multipleLMR®-400 or smaller LMR® cables under a common polyethyleneouter jacket. This innovative design acts as the perfect feedercable for applications requiring multiple runs, such as on towers or building top sites. A unique, patented grounding fixture grounds the outer shields of each cable and a ruggedend cap seals the bundle to prevent moisture ingress at thebreak-out point.

LMR® Bundled Cable can be supplied as complete assemblywith break outs and connectors on both ends, and as a singleended assembly (base can be trimmed and terminated afterinstallation on tower), or as a raw cable and accessoriesalong with easy to use tools. Pictorial instructions and installa-tion videos are available to assist in the installation of theaccessories.
