2.7. Cable Connection
For the SuperTrack SDA-390 to work, you must connect the RF cables to your
satellite TV receiver(s). Each RF cable must be an RF (75 ohms) cable fitted with F-
type connectors. The RF cables should already be connected to the antenna base
plate. There should be one ~ four coax cables routed from the ACU to the Antenna
unit according to your configurations. Note that Data and Power are transmitted
through a single coax cable. This cable should be connected to the RF4/ACU
labeled “RF connector of the antenna base plate” and the connector of the ACU
labeled “ANTENNA.” The remaining coax cable routing depends on your
configuration. Due to the signal polarization of the satellites, it is possible for the
SuperTrack SDA-390 to support more than two satellite TV receivers aboard a boat.
To install more than two satellite TV receivers/TV pairs, an active multi-switch is
placed between the Antenna Unit and the Satellite TV receivers. The following
sections provide details for the installation of both a single satellite TV receiver and
multiple satellite TV receivers.
To connect the SuperTrack SDA-390 to your satellite TV receiver(s), choose one of
the following configurations (based on the number of satellite TV receivers you will
connect to the antenna):
Option 1 - Connecting one satellite TV receiver for one satellite
Option 2 - Connecting multi satellite TV receivers
Connecting one satellite TV receiver for one satellite (Only use the ‘HH’
polarity of the satellite)
One satellite TV receiver for one satellite is the simplest type of cable installation.
Only two coaxial cables should be connected between the antenna unit and the
satellite TV receiver, as shown in Figure 2-14. One end of the RF cable should already
be connected to the connector labeled “RF4” on the base of the SuperTrack SDA-390
antenna. Connect the other end of the RECEIVER cable to the satellite TV receiver
connector labeled “LNB,” “ANT/SAT,” or “satellite IN.” And, the “RF4/ACU” connector of
the antenna base plate must also be connected to the “ANTENNA” connector of the
ACU. In this configuration, every satellite should be selected manually using the ACU.
NOTE: Before you connect an RF cable to a satellite TV receiver, turn on the satellite
