• Do not attach cable tie-downs too tightly. The
cable-fastening hardware should not compress
the cable sheath.
• Do not bend the cable sharply. Place the cables
properly in the cable management after passing
them through the holes, since the edges of the
hole can compress or damage the cable sheath.
• When installing an individual module in the Pure
Home Networking Box, place it above or below
the interfacing module (if possible). This will
eliminate excessive cable crossing.
• For your safety, do not use this or any electrical
product near water (unless it is specifically
designed for wet areas). Do not install wiring
during thunder and lightning storms.
• Use caution when handling or installing any
computer, telephone, video, or electrical devices.
3.3 Installing a Module in the Pure Home Networking Box
1. Determine the area for installation.
2. Position the metal tabs on the left side of the
module at a 45-degree angle and slide them into
the rail holes on the Pure Home Networking Box.
3. Insert the metal tabs on the right side of the
module into the rail.
4. Press the button to fasten the module to the Pure
Home Networking Box.
3.4 Removing a Module from the Pure Home Networking Box
1. Press the button and hold it in while pulling the
module from the Pure Home Networking Box.
2. Swing the module out.
3.5 Module Configuration
The 4 x 4-Port Digital Broadcast Satellite Video/Audio
Module is a pass-through satellite grounding bus, rated
at 2 GHz.
For standard satellite connections, you will need the
module. You will also need to create the necessary
coaxial connections for your application. To do so, you
will need the tools listed in
Section 3.1
.
1. Install the Pure Home Networking 4 x 4-Port
Digital Broadcast Satellite Video/Audio Module
and connect all incoming devices, such as satellite
feeds.
NOTE
If you are using a multi-switch, place it inline between the
4 x 4-Port Digital Broadcast Satellite Video/Audio Module
and the satellite dish.
2. Next, install the output cables from the 4 x 4-Port
Digital Broadcast Satellite Video/Audio Module to
the desired receivers or cable box.
NOTE
Do not use a splitter between the module and your receiver
or cable box. Doing so will greatly degrade the signal,
resulting in poor reception.
3. Attach one end of the grounding wire (included)
to the connector on the 4 x 4-Port Digital
Broadcast Satellite Video/Audio Module and the
other end of the connector to one of the ground-
ing screws on the Pure Home Networking Box.
