Installation - Wiring (Contd.)
1.
Run RG6 coaxial cable from each source/destination through the cabinet
raceway to the HS-VA3800 Amplifier module. Label cables at both ends for
identification. Terminate cables with "F" style connectors.
Note:
Ensure that cable source/destinations are "F" style jacks mounted in an
appropriate wall plate. If using a multiple wall outlet then label the jacks
accordingly.
2.
Connect source/destination ends of the cables to the "F" style jacks. Connect the
terminated drops to the HS-VA3800 Video Amplifer module terminals labelled
"
OUTPUTS
".
3.
Terminate unused output terminals on the HS-VA3800 Video Amplifer module with
75 ohm terminators (not supplied).
4.
Locate a suitable 110VAC receptacle for placement of the wall-mount transformer. If
necessary have a qualified electrician install a 110VAC receptacle close to the panel.
5.
Route RG6 coaxial cable from the power supply at the 110 VAC receptacle into the
cabinet to the HS-VA3800 Video Amplifer module.
6.
Terminate each each end of the coaxial cable using a standard "F" style connector.
Connect the cable to the HS-VA3800 Video Amplifer module terminal labelled '
PWR
- IN
' and to the power supply.
7.
Plug in the power supply and test all connections to confirm proper installation and
termination.
