Installation and Startup  
Note: If the antennas are located away from the router, keep the cables as short as possible to  
prevent the loss of antenna gain. Route the cables so that they are protected from damage and will  
not be snagged or pulled on. There should be no binding or sharp corners in the cable routing.  
Excess cabling should be bundled and tied off. Make sure the cables are secured so their weight  
will not loosen the connectors from the router over time.

Recommended Antenna Separation  
The recommended antenna separation is related to the band frequency/wavelength. To  
accommodate the shortest frequency/longest wavelength band supported by the LX40,  
Sierra Wireless recommends a minimum antenna separation of 214 mm for best results,  
and if necessary, a separation of 107 mm for acceptable results.
