550-040 TV Combiner/Splitter Module Installation Guide

Pre-Installation Instructions

1.After the enclosure has been mounted, determine which modules will be inserted. On a sheet of paper, diagram the location where each module will be placed. An expansion module should be placed close to the module with which it interfaces.

2.On the diagram, identify the origin and destination of each cable. Make sure the module serving each device is safely within a 100ft/30m distance.

Installation Instructions

Note: Do not connect the DC power supply to a power outlet until all wiring has been completed.

1.Identify the enclosure location on which the module will be mounted.

2.Mount the module by inserting the nylon pins into the holes in back of the enclosure and pressing the pins in. Make sure that the pins are firmly seated and the module is secure.

Wiring Instructions

Note: Module wiring should only be performed by a experienced, licensed electrician. Make sure all power has been shut off to the equipment and there is no live circuit. Route all cables through the knock-out holes and bundle with tie wraps or cable straps to ensure safe and long-lasting connections.

1.Connect F-terminated coaxial cable inputs from the cable TV incoming feed and, if insert- ing security camera feed, the Fast Media RF Modulator Module (550-080) onto the ports on the “input” side of the TV hub.

2.Connect an F-terminated coaxial cable onto each of 1-6 outputs on the “output” side of the hub.

3.Route the cables from the hub to the TV set locations in the home and terminate with 75-Ohm F-connectors.

4.Place 75-Ohm termination caps over unused TV hub ports to improve video reception.

5.Connect the 9VDC power supply cord to the power input jack.
