Running a Cable into the House

Running Cable Into the House

1.Drill a hole in the location you want the coaxial cable to enter.

2.Place some silicone grease on the connector and connect the RG-6 coaxial cable that will extend from the grounding block to the receiver.

3.Make a 3” - 5” drip loop using cable clips at the grounding block.

4.Route the coaxial cable through your house to the back of the receiver. You may route the coaxial cable through a floor or wall or directly to the back of the receiver. If you are routing through a wall, you may choose to install a wall plate at the point the coaxial cable enters the inside of the house and use a third RG-6 coaxial cable.

5.Use a silicone sealant to seal all outside connections and the hole you drilled for the coaxial cable to enter your house.

CAUTION

Before drilling, make sure there are no wires or pipes behind the wall in the area of the hole.

Step 4: Route the cable into your house.

Step 3: Make a drip loop.

Step 2: Connect RG-6 cable to grounding block.
