Theory of Operation 

 
The 

DXE-CC-8A

 has two easy to use rear panel connector plugs and sockets for control line 

connections plus one connection for +12 Vdc. The two green plugs are easy to wire. Connections 
are made with a screwdriver; no soldering is required. Not only does this make the 

CC-8A

 easy to 

install, it also allows easy quick disconnect during periods of extended non-use for lightning 
protection or if the 

CC-8A

 is relocated to another area of your operating position. The brightness 

adjustment for the front antenna switch LED (Light Emitting Diode) indicators is also located on 
the rear panel. The 

CC-8A

 has an attractive wear resistant laminated front panel to maintain 

appearance even with constant use.  
 
 
 
 

Installation 

 
The 

CC-8A

 is designed for indoor use only. Mount the 

CC-8A

 at any convenient location but avoid 

condensation, exposure to heat from amplifiers or other high power equipment. Constant exposure 
to temperatures above 150 degrees F (65C) will shorten the life of the

 CC-8A

, and should be 

avoided.
