Sources and data conflicts

Every number on this site comes from ANDREW's public documents, retrieved 2026-10-27. Re-pull the sheets before you submit, since they're revised without notice. The newest, MT-F1595, was revised 2026-10-19.

Spec sheets

Other manufacturer documents

• ROOF-CABLE-SUPPORTS product family page and base product sheet (material: hot-dip galvanized steel).
• ANDREW Limited Warranty (May 2025), the basis of the warranty page.
• ANDREW Terms and Conditions of Sale.
• ANDREW terms page and product compliance (RoHS/REACH).
• Authorized partner locator. Buy from one of these resellers to keep the warranty.
• Wind specifications: the sheets refer you to "your local ANDREW representative". Older CommScope listings gave a steel-products contact (steelproducts@commscope.com, 1-800-255-1479 in North America, 1-779-435-6500 internationally). ANDREW is now an Amphenol company, so that contact may have changed. Start with the partner locator.

Details only on the older (2015) CommScope sheets

These details come from the 2015 CommScope editions of the bridge-kit sheets. The current ANDREW sheets dropped them. Treat them as likely but unconfirmed.

• Cable hole size: 3/4 in (19.1 mm).
• Included sleepers by part number: MT-F1598 (4-run, PVC, 22 in L × 4 in square), MT-F1599 (8-run, PVC, 32 in L × 4 in square) and MT-F1600 (12-run, 4 in square PVC with snap-in hanger holes).
• The 2015 outline drawings are swapped: the MT-F1597 PDF shows the 96 in bridge section, and the MT-F1542-11 PDF shows the 45° wedge splice plate (11-39/64, 21-1/2 or 33 in; 7/16 in holes; curved slots). Read the drawing, not the filename.
• Pipe OD: 2 3/8 in in 2015, versus 2.4 in on the current MT-F1542-11 sheet. These are the same pipe, rounded differently.

Distributor listings

ANDREW's sheets describe sizes, not functions. Talley's coax-support listings give the function: the splices are "Horizontal Adj Splice Plate, 0-45 Deg" (special order, non-returnable), and MT-F1703 is a "0-45 Deg Vert Adj Hinged Coax Bridge Ext Kit". This is the basis for the turns page. Retrieved 2026-10-27.

How these combine into one design is on the grounding page.

Where the sheets disagree with themselves

These are the places where a sheet contradicts itself or its siblings. Each one is an RFI (see the ready-to-send list).

• MT-F1542-11: Only bridge kit whose sheet lists a pipe outer diameter (2.4 in). The other two sizes don't publish one, so ask before you assume they're the same.
• MT-F1595: Sheet revised 2026-10-19, the newest in the line. Re-pull it before you submit.
• MT-F1595: No extension kit (vertical hinge) is listed for the 12-run size. Ask ANDREW how a 12-run bridge goes over a curb or parapet before you route one across a level change.
• MT-F1703: Function, per the distributor listing (Talley): a vertically adjustable hinged extension, 0–45°, described as 12 in W × 24 in L. ANDREW's own sheet doesn't state the function and lists 40 in L × 20 in H, probably the packed or swung envelope. Confirm the hinge length against the assembly drawing.
• MT-F1704: Function inferred, not confirmed: the 4-run sibling MT-F1703 is listed as a 0–45° vertical hinged extension, and this 8-run part has the same 40 × 20 in envelope. No distributor listing for MT-F1704 was available on 2026-10-27, so confirm with ANDREW before you order.
• RT-CB4D: A 2015 distributor sheet for this family listed a PVC roof sleeper (MT-F1599) as the included sleeper. The current sheet only says 'Sleepers (3)', so confirm the sleeper type and that it's compatible with your roof membrane.
• RT-CB8D: A 2015 distributor sheet listed a PVC roof sleeper (MT-F1599) as included. The current sheet only says 'Sleepers (3)'.
• RT-ST: No live-load (foot traffic) rating is published. Get one in writing if the step-over is part of a required egress or service path.
• MT-365G: ANDREW lists this as a non-standard product, so expect a longer lead time and quote-only ordering. Ask for the lead time before you set the schedule.
• MT-365G: Mounting is listed as 'Roofs', not 'Non-penetrating'. A roof entry means an opening and a curb that the roofing contractor of record has to make and flash, or the roof warranty is at risk.
• MT-365G: At 230 lb it's the heaviest single piece in the line. Plan the lift.
• CT-P4: Thickness conflict: the title says 4 in × 1/4 in × 10 ft, but the dimension table says 1 in high. Confirm before you calculate sleeper heights or drainage clearance.
• MT-F1637: Thickness conflict: the title says 1/2 in × 18 in × 48 in, but the dimension table says 1 in high.

• ROOF-CABLE-SUPPORTS base sheet: it describes the rooftop family as products "for Wall Mounted applications" and lists Z-brackets. That looks like copied text, and it doesn't affect the rooftop parts.
• All parts: the wind rating reads "For Specifications, please contact your local ANDREW representative". No part has a published rating.
