Tips

•  Water tight operation is possible for the Cat5 connections on the RT 

Line Extender. Please contact TE at http://www.te.com/ and reference 

part number 1738607-1 for more  information.

•  Distances discussed and shown on the diagram are approximate and 

have been tested using 100% copper twisted pair Cat5 cable.

•  Use of copper clad solid aluminum-core Cat5 cable significantly 

reduces distances and/or performance quality of your system.

•  Use caution when mounting, especially near foot traffic areas; never 

mount directly overhead.

•  Use installation template provided for assistance installing securely & 

accurately.

•  If using ZSync, ensure all BaseStations are powered on and all RT Line 

Extenders and RTs are powered on and operational at all times.

•  For multiple BaseStations, roaming installations, and detailed 

synchronization considerations, contact Pliant for more information.
