Trouble?

1) Be sure you have connected the CAT-5 cable correctly. Note that the 
stripe/solid pattern should match the labels on the product. Miss-wiring 
can cause distorted sound or prevent the system from working at all!

2) Be sure you have connected the speakers in phase. Follow the label 
on the product. Out of phase speakers can rob the system of its bass. 
Especially when driving dual-voice-coil speakers.

Connection Tips and Troubleshooting

Input/Output 

...  To simplify installation, the 

AB-311 has both 110 and RJ-45 inputs and 
outputs.  Only one of the inputs and one of the 
outputs should be used at a time.

Blade

Cat5

1. 

Place the CAT-5 between the blade and the first notch of the J-110 tool.

CAT-5 cable should be stripped with a proper stripping tool, such as Channel 
Vision’s J-110 tool.

Slight 

pressure

Rotate

1 turn only

2. 

Rotate the tool only once around the CAT-5.  Multiple

    turns will cause you to cut into the inner wires.

3.

 Inspect the inner wires for damage.

    If any wires are cut start over at step 1.

 

Check for damage

4. 

Use any standard 110 punch-down tool to properly seat all wires. 

    Note: Do NOT use a screwdriver or any other tool that is not specifically 
    designed for terminating UTP cable. Using improper tools will damage 
    the connector!
