Ideally, the antenna should be sheltered from wind. The outdoor unit ODU mainly consists of these devices:. Safety Is Important:. Installing a VSAT can be very dangerous especially on a roof. Follow the instructions carefully to ensure that the antenna is correctly assembled. Care must be taken when working near the edge of roof tops such that you do not fall off or drop anything on people who may be below.
Never work alone and always look out for each other. Static - Permanent Mounting:. This type of installation is usually a pole mount which is bolted securely to the ground.
The pole can be concreted into a hole but in both cases must be completely vertical. Temporary Mount Non-Penetrating :. This is a quickly deployed mount which consists of a frame constructed to hold the pole vertically and securely whilst providing a large base for the addition of ballast.
Ballast heavy bricks or concrete weigh down the mount preventing the wind from overturning the antenna assembly. In extreme conditions even a permanent mount can sustain damage and so a sheltered location and saftey lines attaching the mount to the building should be considered.
