Water Damage Prevention:
At the point where your coaxial cable lead enters the house, you
should allow for some slack in the coaxial cable as a “drip loop.”
This will prevent moisture from running down the coaxial cable
and entering the house.
Run the coaxial cable approximately six inches below the wall
entry point and then turn it upwards towards this spot. See Fig 16.
Any moisture that accumulates on the coaxial cable will drip off in
the bend instead of running into the house. You should seal the
point where the cable enters your home with a rubber weather
insulator or silicone caulking (not included) An “F” connector wall
plate can be used inside the home to cover the inside portion of
the whole. You can typically find an “F” connector wall plate at
any local Electronics or Hardware store.
