Field of application:
The devices are only suitable for in-house distribution of RF signals. If a device
is used for other purposes, no warranty is given!
The picture shows an application example for distribution of 4 SAT IF polariza-
tion levels including terrestrial signals (e.g. FM, DAB+, DVB-T/T2).
Equipotential bonding and Mounting:
To avoid dangerous power surges (e.g. risk of fire and danger of life) the
devices must be connected to the equipotential bonding according to EN
60728-11.
Use the equipotential bonding connection at the device (1).
To connect the outer conductor of the coaxial cable to the equipotential
bonding, use e.g. QEW Earthing angles at the inputs and outputs of the
device.
Mount the device on a flat surface. Use the included mounting screws and
the mounting holes of the device (2).
RF Installation:
Connect the SAT inputs of the multiswitch to the LNBs of your SAT recepti-
on antenna. Connect the output signals of a terrestrial amplifier or a CATV
amplifier to the terrestrial input.
Connect the subscriber ports on the left and right sides of the multiswitch
to the antenna sockets. Use highly shielded coaxial cables with F connec-
tors. Suitable cables and connectors can be found in the current AXING
catalogue or under www.axing.com.
If you don´t use cascade units to expand the multiswitch, terminate the
outputs on the lower side with the resistors CFA 11-00 enclosed.
If you use cascade units to expand the multiswitch, connect them with F/F
Quickfix adapters CFA 4-01.
Multifunction LED:
The multiswitch comes with a multifunction LED (6), which shows different
operation modes with different colours.
green = in operation
yellow = stand by (no receiver connected respc. on)
red = LNB short-circuit (check the cabling and rectify the error)
Level Adjustment
(SPU 96-09, SPU 910-09 and SPU 916-09 only)
:
The terrestrial input of our multiswitch can be adjusted (4).
Level reduction through increased number of channels
Applicable in the frequency range of up to 862 MHz.
The maximum output levels given on the product label are those of measure-
ments according to EN 50083-5 for 3rd order interference products.
The output levels according to EN 50083-3 for 3rd order interference products
must be reduced by 6 dBµV. When used in CATV networks with multi-channel
assignment, the CTB & CSO operating levels according to CENELEC (EN 50083-
3 42K.) apply. If the channel assignment deviates from the CENELEC assign-
ment, the operating levels must be adjusted accordingly.
As an approximation, the following table can be consulted:

16
- 8.4
24
- 9.7

-10.9
72
-13.0
Return path
To use the return path, terrestrial path must be switched passiv (5).
Removing the power supply:
When there is no mains close to the multiswitch, the power supply can be
removed and connected with an appropriate coaxial cable (max. length
10 m).
Remove the F bridge (3) between the power supply and the multiswitch.
Remove the power supply by pressing down the little nose of the base
plate and push the power supply to the right side; then you can take it
off.
Fix the power supply close to a power socket. Use the included screws
and fix the power supply at the foreseen mounting holes (top left and
bottom right )
Connect the DC-output of the power supply (F-female connector ) with
the
DC-input of the multiswitch. Use an appropriate coaxial cable with
F-connectors (8).
Connect the power supply only to mains when all installation works are
finished

Cascading
(SPU 96-09, SPU 910-09 und SPU 916-09 only)
:
The multiswitches SPU 96-09, SPU 910-09 and SPU 916-09 can be extended
with the cascade units SPU 996-09, SPU 998-09, SPU 9912-09 and
SPU 9918-09.
Please note when installing these cascade units the appropriate operati-
on instructions.I
Connect the outputs of the multiswitches with the inputs of the cascade
units. Use F/F Quickfix adapters CFA 4-01 (not included in delivery).
Terminate the outputs of the last cascade units with the resistors CFA
11-00 enclosed (7).
