1100790-501 Thales BV350 MissionLINK 700 Magnetic Mount Kit for Antenna(BAA)

Mounting the Thales BV350/MissionLINK 700 Broadband Active ANTENNA(BAA) part# 1600899-1

There are two (2) mounting options for the Antenna, each of these are described below:
• Magnetic Mounting using this part# 1100790-501, and
• Hard / Fixed Mount.

It is important to note that the coaxial cable provided in the MissionLINK® kit, or one of the
Thales approved accessory coaxial cables, must be installed for proper operation of the
MissionLINK® system. Otherwise, the system may not calibrate correctly and will result in a
failure at start-up.

Install the cable using best practices for cable bend radius and to avoid
pinching the cable.

It is also important to ensure the cable does not get cut by or rub on nearby
sharp objects.

If longer cables are needed, refer to Table 1-3).

Keys to successful installation of the MissionLINK® Antenna:
• Mount where antenna is at least the minimum safety distance away from personnel
(1.0m).
• Mount antenna with unobstructed (Full View) of the sky. Any blockage to part of the
sky by metal objects could result in loss of connection and/or poor data speeds.
• Mount the antenna level on a flat surface.
• Make sure magnetic mounts are secure and tight on the antenna prior to installation.
• Keep antenna away from large metallic objects in the field of view when possible to
increase performance. Metal surfaces below the antenna are fine (example: the
vehicle’s roof.)
• Mount as far away from other antennas (HF, VHF, UHF, Inmarsat L-Band antennas) as
possible to avoid interference.

NOTE: Refer to the User Guide and Instruction Manual for additional details.
