SINGLE DIPLEXER POLE MOUNT
1. Disconnect RF signals and DC power.
2. Attach the bracket on the wall by means of two screws.
See Figure 2
.
3. Follow steps 2 to 13 as described above.
SINGLE DIPLEXER WALL MOUNT
1. Assemble the (2) diplexers together using the (2) distance plates (F) and the (6) bolt kits (G)
provided (SEM2-3 kit) in the package. Use the (2) M6 grounding studs (E) attached to the single
diplexer to complete the plate fixation on the diplexers. Tighten them with 8 Nm (5.9 ft-lbs)
torque.
See Figure 3
.
2. Continue installation following the Pole or Wall Mounting instructions listed above.

1. Disconnect RF signals and DC power.
2. Slide the (2) stainless clamps through the long thin holes of the bracket (A).
3. Fix the clamps/bracket on the pole with 5.5 Nm (4.1 ft-lbs) torque using an Allen wrench.
4. For upright mounting (one connector upwards), place the bolt set (SEM2-1A kit) provided in
the package, into the diplexer mounting hole (B). Leave the nut loose for the next step.
5. Slide the diplexer into the bracket (B).
6. Place the bottom bolt of the diplexer through the holes of both the bracket and the diplexer
and tighten both top and bottom bolt sets with 8 Nm (5.9 ft-lbs) torque (B + D).
7. For upside down mounting (two connector upwards), repeat steps 4 to 6 using position D as
the top bolt.
8. Connect the diplexer to the system using jumper cables. When attaching its 7/16 connector
swivel to the diplexer connector, it is mandatory that the jumper cable meets the connector
straight in line (H). Press the inner part of the jumper cable connector into the diplexer
connector and maintain this pressure when turning the swivel. Hereby the swivel will fit the
thread of the female connector correctly and it will run smoothly. Tighten the swivel using your
hand.
9. Use a torque wrench to tighten the connector assembly with 25 Nm (18.4 ft-lbs) torque.
See
Figure 4
on the following page.
10. Grounding is already provided through mounting hardware. If deemed necessary, additional
grounding might be obtained by attaching a grounding cable to the external grounding stud
on the side of the unit. To do that, tighten the M6 socket screw and (2) washers with 8 Nm
(5.9 ft-lbs) torque (B). RFS grounding cables (Model Numbers CA020-2, 2 meter, or CA020-3, 3
meter), or equivalent, may be used.
11. Adjust the length of the ground cable and attach it onto the pole’s ground connection with 8
Nm (5.9 ft-lbs) torque.
12. Weatherproof the diplexer connections using RFS weatherproofing kits (Model Numbers CTAPE-
1 or WPFG-1) or an equivalent. Follow the instructions supplied with the kit to weatherproof
the connectors.
13. Reconnect RF signals and DC power.
NOTE:
Do NOT remove or paint over the breathable vent.
See drawing on reverse side for the
breathable vent location.
