Better Connections Yield Superior System PerformanceThe connector interface is one of the most critical factors affecting transmission line operation. Even experienced technicians find the job more difficult when equipped with makeshift devices or an inad-equate array of simple hand tools, and it only takes a single faulty connection to degrade performance and threaten your operation’s revenues.

Transmission Line GroundingA well designed system uses grounding kits to provide a bond between the cable and the tower/earth ground system. One grounding kit is recommended at tower top, tower bottom, at 200 ft (60 m) intervals (where applicable), and at the entrance to the equipment shelter. Andrew solid copper grounding kits have passed United States Air Force lightning simulation tests and meet MIL-STD-188-124A. The non-braided solid copper construction of all Andrew grounding kits eliminates corrosion caused by moisture retention and “wicking.” A heat shrink tube protects the cable terminal connection.

Grounding Kit SelectionSeveral grounding kit options are available to meet the requirements of any transmission line grounding application.

d­­Compact SureGround™ grounding kits provide the fastest, easiest installation with the highest degree of lightning protection. Their self-sealing design clips and locks onto the cable in less than a minute.

d­­SureGround grounding kits, an industry favorite, offer clip on attachment with taped weatherproofing.

d­­Standard grounding kits provide the best grounding solution for elliptical waveguide. The copper grounding strap is coiled around the cable and weatherproofed with tape.

d­­Universal grounding kits can be applied to a broad range of coaxial or elliptical transmission lines.

1. Calculate the peak instantaneous voltage of a single +42 dBm carrier for a 50 ohm based system

AveragePower10

(averagepowerpercarrierindBm/10) perCarrier(watts)=

1000

Vrmspercarrier(volts):= √ averagepowerpercarrier(watts)•Impedance(ohms)

Vrmspercarrier(volts)=28.284

Vpeakpercarrier(volts):=√2•Vrmspercarrier(volts)

Vpeakpercarrier(volts)=40

Therefore, the peak instantaneous voltage of a single +42 dBm carrier is 40 volts.

2. Calculate the peak instantaneous voltage of a two, +42 dBm carrier, 50 ohm based system

Peakinstantaneousvoltage(volts):= Vpeakpercarrier(volts)•numberofcarriers(N)

Peakinstantaneousvoltage(volts)=80

Therefore, the peak instantaneous voltage of a two +42 dBm carriers is 80 volts.

3. Calculate the peak instantaneous power of two, +42 dBm carrier, 50 ohm based system

Peakinstantaneouspower(watts):= (Peakinstantaneousvoltage(volts))2

Impedance(ohms)

Peakinstantaneouspower(watts)=128

Peakinstantaneouspower(dBm):=

10•log

Peakinstantaneouspower(watts) 0.001

Peakinstantaneouspower(dBm)=51.072

Therefore, the peak instantaneous voltage of two, +42 dBm carriers is 128 watts (+51 dBm).

4. The gas tube selection curves are specified as Maximum Average Power vs. VSWR. Therefore, it is required to calculate an estimate of the average (RMS) power from the peak instantaneous power. A reasonable calculation of this estimate is shown below:

Peakinstantaneousvoltage(volts)=80

RMSequivalent(volts):=Peakinstantaneousvoltage(volts)

√2

RMSequivalent(volts)=56.569

RMSequalpower(watts):=(RMSequivalent(volts))2

Impedance(ohms)

RMSequalpower(watts)=64

Therefore, to utilize the gas tube selection curves, an approximate value of 64 watts average power would provide a reasonable estimate.

Note that for this calculation, the dc bias voltage was not specified and the VSWR was not specified. The gas tube selection curves provide a derating for both the VSWR and dc bias voltage.

5. Apply calculated information to the derating curves.

HELIAX® Coaxial CableRecommended maximum hanger spacings are tabulated below for various wind speed and ice conditions. The recommendations are based on guidelines stated in EIA Standard RS-222 and new wind tunnel and vibration tests. They supersede those in previous Andrew catalogs. Please refer to Andrew publication number TP-101619-EN available at www.andrew.com for the most current recommendations.

These spacing recommendations assume that all hangers are properly installed and tightened. Installations in Typical ClimatesUse the 125 mph (200 km/h), 1/2 in ice conditions, highlighted in red. Severe or Mild ClimatesUse the wind speed and ice conditions that most closely approximate the expected worst case conditions for the local climate.

HELIAX® Elliptical WaveguideRecommended maximum hanger spacings are tabulated below for various wind speed and ice conditions. The recommendations are based on guidelines stated in EIA Standard RS-222 and new wind tunnel and vibration tests. They supersede those in previous Andrew catalogs.

Installations in Typical ClimatesUse the 125 mph (200 km/h), 1/2 in ice conditions, highlighted in red. Severe or Mild ClimatesUse the wind speed and ice conditions that most closely approximate the expected worst case conditions for the local climate.
