Protection of waveguide flanges
Protect the waveguide flanges of the IQ upconverter against mechanical damage.
Always use a torque wrench to tighten the screws of the waveguide flanges.
Shield the waveguides from dust and moisture, and avoid scratching the contact
surfaces. We recommend that you use a test port adapter.
When the IQ upconverter is not in use, leave the test port adapter mounted and
attach one of the included protective caps to the adapter.
Avoid heavy shocks
Heavy shocks can damage the hardware of the IQ upconverter.
For shipping or storing the device, make sure that it is packed with shockproof
packaging materials in a sturdy cardboard box of suitable size, see also
