INJ94 INJECTOR

The Model CPL10 extracts or injects IR control signals when used with TV coaxial RF cable systems,
employing the patented Xtra Link™ principle.

SPECIFICATIONS

• 2 - "F"-type threaded coaxial connectors

• 1 - IR signal I/O jack (3.5mm mono mini jack)

• Dimensions: 3" x 1-1/2" x 7/8"

INSTALLATION

Fig. 2 illustrates a simple installation using CPL10 Couplers in an IR repeater system.  Control of a satellite
receiver and a VCR from two remote rooms is accomplished over the same coaxial cable that carries the
TV signal.  When configuring this type of system, keep the following items in mind:

1. CPL10's may be used for both injecting and extracting the IR signal on the coax at the IR receiver and

equipment ends, as shown.

2. REMOTE ROOM 1 is an example of how any 3-lead Xantech IR receiver (or keypad) may be used in

an Xtra Link type system.  A CB12 Connecting Block makes the necessary connections between the
three leads of the 480-00 "Dinky Link" IR Receiver, the 781RG Power Supply and the CPL10 Coupler.

3. REMOTE ROOM 2 shows the use of a 291-10 IR Receiver and an INJ94 Injector.  Use the INJ94

instead of the CPL10 any time you use a Xantech IR receiver equipped with a quick connect stereo
mini plug.
