Installation Best Practices
Pro Tips
- Leave service loops at both ends for maintenance
- Label cables with installation date and specifications
- Cut Starlink Power cable to the length required for the specific installation. The shorter the cable, the less voltage drop the Starlink will see.
Safety Warnings
Power Safety
Always power down the POE system before connecting or disconnecting cables. Hot-plugging can cause arcing and damage to both the POE and Starlink dish.
Waterproofing
Ensure all connections are properly sealed. Water ingress can cause system failure and safety hazards.
