Once the Cheetah Video Matrix Frame is installed in the equipment rack, the associated system
connections can be completed. The order of completion of installation steps is not critical, however,
DO NOT apply power to a frame until all of the video signal, sync and control cables have been
installed and their connections verified for proper placement and accuracy. Use the following guide to
insure that all connections are made properly and that power, system interconnect and video signal
cables are correctly installed.
Use the following guidelines when connecting equipment cables:
Install the equipment in the rack before connecting cables.
Relieve strain on all cables to prevent connector separation.
To the greatest extent possible, separate control, signal, and power cables to minimize any possible
crosstalk or interference.
Figure 3-1 - Cables Attached To Supports
Use as many cable ties as necessary to secure cables to the rack, as shown in Figure 3-1. This will
provide cable strain relief and help route cables away from hazardous areas.
Route cables away from physical traffic areas to avoid creating a safety hazard (trip or shock).
