4Firetide Accessory Guide Version 3.01 19 June 2009
Most antenna problems are caused by coaxial cable connections that
loosen due to vibration, allowing moisture to penetrate the
connector interface. Firetide recommends that all outdoor cable
connections be weatherproofed using butyl mastic, shown in Figure
1. Butyl mastic is a stretchy, slightly sticky material which bonds to
itself and remains flexible. A layer of electrical tape is used under-
neath to keep the connection clean and make disassembly easier.
Materials Needed:
tPliers
tUtility knife
tVinyl electric tape
tRubber splicing/mastic tape (a.k.a. self-amalgamating, self-
sealing, self-fusing, non-vulcanized)
Waterproofing the Antenna Connection
Step 1
Ensure the connector and cables are free of foreign substances such
as oil, water, grease, or dirt. Fasten connectors securely together.
Use pliers to tighten. Then verify that Firetide node is working, us-
ing HotView™ mesh management software.
Step 2
Tightly wrap a layer of electrical tape, STICKY SIDE OUT, over the
connector from base of unit to one inch over the cable. When
wrap-ping, the tape should overlap about 40% of the previous turn
on each turn. This layer of electrical tape will ease removal of the
mastic tape from the connector if required. Figure 2 shows the use
of a pencil as a wrapping aid if space is tight.
Step 3
Tightly wrap a layer of butyl rubber splicing (mastic) tape over the
electrical tape. Overlapping the tape about 40% on each turn, start
from base of unit and extend at least one inch on to the cable
sheath, as shown in Figure 3.
The key to a good watertight connection is to maintain a high level
of tension and stretch in the butyl rubber.
Step 4
Tightly wrap a layer of electrical tape over the butyl rubber mastic
layer. Then wrap a second layer of electrical tape.The result should
look like Figure 4. The outer layers of electrical tape prevent the
mastic from melting in very hot weather.
Your antenna connector is now weatherized. Next, weatherize the
connection from the cable to the Firetide node.

Waterproofing the Cable to Node Connections
Waterproofing the connection of the cable to the lighning supressor
and the lightning suppressor to the Firetide node is essentially the
same process as the antenna connector.
Step 5
Wrap a layer of electrical tape, STICKY SIDE OUT, around the
supres-sor-to-node connection, as shown in Figure 5b and 5c. Repeat
for the cable-to-suppressor connection.
Step 6
Using plenty of tension, tightly wrap a layer of butyl rubber splicing
(mastic) tape over the electrical tape. Overlapping the tape about 40%
on each turn, start from base of unit and extend at least one (1) inch
on to the cable sheath, as shown in Figure 6.
The key to a good watertight connection is to maintain a high level
of tension and stretch in the butyl rubber.
Step 7
Tightly wrap two layers of electrical tape over the butyl mastic,
sticky side in, as shown in Figure 7.
Your system is weatherized. Don’t forget to leave a drip loop when
installing the Firetide node and antenna.
