Completing Installation
For this installation,
use the steps below while referring to Figure 1, page 2 for Eastern Arc or Figure 2,
page 3 for Western Arc.
Note
: Use RG-6 coaxial cables from the LNBF to the receiver, using the following cable
requirements. Grounding, other devices, and in-home cabling must also meet these requirements.
•
RG-6 coaxial cables rated for at least 950 to 2150 MHz must be used in this installation. Do
not use existing cables such as RG-59 as they may cause signal loss. Also, be sure that any
outdoor connections are made using waterproof F-connectors rated for 2150 MHz or greater.
•
Follow the installation instructions included with the switch for cable length limitations.
The cable’s center conductor must not extend past the rim of the F-connector more than
the thickness of a nickel.
Tighten all outdoor cable connections up to the torque values recommended by the
manufacturer to ensure seal against moisture. Damage caused by overtightening is
not
covered by the limited warranty.
