Installing the Allport™ Multi-connection Hub
The Allport™ is a unique connection that enables the speaker and keypad connections to be made with one cable. Once the Cat-5 cables and
speaker wires are connected to the back of the Allport™, it can then be installed into a single-gang, low-voltage ring. These are available either
as a ring designed to attach to a wall stud prior to the drywall installation, or installed after the drywall is finished using the type that has wings or
“dog-ears” that screw down to the drywall. The Allport™ connection cable is 10 feet long, so the location of the Allport™ needs to be within 10
feet of the equipment.
Once the Allport™ is installed in the wall, the Allport™ cable can be installed and tightened down and the other end installed at the back of the
2430 amplifier and tightened down (fig. 5).

Proper Placement of the BA-2430 Main Amplifier
The main amplifier unit is designed to be located centrally with the audio source equipment and the Allport™ connection hub. Care should be taken
to provide ample ventilation to adequately dissipate heat. It is best to leave 1 ½ to 2 inches of ventilation space around the amplifier.
