Installation notes
- Must be mounted vertically:Ā the two drain slots either side of the connector must point downwards. Either tape from from below the cable connector to 10mm above these slots, moving the bracket as needed, or tape from below the cable connector to 5mm below these slots, leaving them clear for water to drain.
- Ensure all outdoor connectors are taped with self-amalgamating tape (not electrical tape)! Water will seepĀ throughĀ screw threads over time, and will permeate your cable and antenna via the exposed connectors, causing performance to mysteriously drop some days or weeks after installation.

Paradar 868 Mhz SAW Filter
The Paradar SAW filter is crucial for LoRa deployments in urban environments. Why? Because 4G cellular towers in Europe and the UK, operating on 4G Band 20, work on frequencies as high as 862MHz. A high-gain antenna in an urban environment is going to pick up a lot of this RF energy, which your 868MHz LoRa device will need to filter out.
