Wiring the rackmount 

housings

 
Inputs:

The transformer inputs should be connected to the low-
impedance output of the relevant amplifier channel. Use 
the mating 2-pin 5 mm-pitch screw-terminal connectors 
supplied with the transformers, and wire with two-core 

stranded cable of at least 1.5 mm

gauge. (In the case of the 

model CXL-400T, 2.5 mm

2

 cable is recommended if the 

transformers are not adjacent to the amplifier.)

Outputs:

The transformer outputs may be connected to the 
loudspeaker system. Use the mating 3-pin 5 mm-pitch 
screw-terminal connectors supplied with the transformers, 
and two-core stranded cable of at least 0.75 mm

2

 gauge 

(CXL-40T, CXL-100T & CXL-200T) or 1 mm

2

 gauge  

(CXL-400T). Note that pins 1 and 3 should be wired for a 
100 V-line system, and pins 1 and 2 for a 70 V-line system.

When all the connections have been made, fit the PVC 
external safety cover over the rear panel connectors. The six 
fixing holes in the cover should align with the six hex pillars. 
Secure it in place with six of the supplied M3 x 6 mm Pozi 
screws.
