Arm Mounted Televisions 

The PD295-002 interface module is also compatible with several of the PDi Arm Mounted televisions that incorporate a 
CCI Port. Models such as the PDI-P14 and PDI-P19TV can be used successfully with the interface module when ordered 
with the CCI option.  The PDI-P10LCD series arm mounted TV can NOT be used with the PD295-002 interface module as 
it does not have a CCI Port. 

 

NOTE: Each TV and its Support Arm must be pre-wired with a CAT5 CCI data cable. Please contact PDi 
Communication Systems or your PDi distributor for assistance should your TV and/or Arm lack this cable. 

 

 

Arm Mounted TV 

 Data, Power, and IR Emitter Cable Installation 

The CAT5 data cable used to connect the remotely located TV to the interface module should not exceed 300 feet in 
length. CAT5 and power cables are not provided with the interface module. 
 
1.  Connect one end of the CAT5 cable to the Data Cable from the Arm/TV. The in-room Data Connection is typically wall 

mounted as illustrated below. 

2.  Connect the other end of the CAT5 cable to the RJ45 port on the PD295-002 interface module. 
3.  Connect the IR Emitter cable to the interface module. 
4.  Remove adhesive backer from IR Emitter and secure it to the IR receiver window of the STB. 
5.  For chassis mounted interface module, connect chassis power cable to PD295-002.  For standalone mounting, 

connect power cord PD106-747 to PD295-002.
