3.4 Antenna sockets

The participants should be connected to the system via antenna sockets (SV 500 or SVT 500). This ensures that terrestrial programmes can be received without the need for an additional socket, and equipment connected in this way is protected from extraneous interfe- rence.

3.5 Cascade

>We recommend splitting the cascade distribution (star-shaped for each floor in the building, MULTYMEDIA cable between the multi-switches). This makes the laying of cables more efficient, with less possible confusion.

>If you wish to distribute to 16 parties from a single central point (star-shaped distribu- tion), connect the switches by means of quick-connecting F-connection adapters.

3.6Energy-saving switch (use only when operating 9/8 G on its own!)

> The terrestrial reception is supplied continuously via the mains adapter.

> If the energy-saving switch is set to “on”, the LNCs will only be fed if at least one receiver is switched on.

4 Installation hints

>Check all cables for short circuits before making the connections, in the case of lar- ger installations this can save a lot of time later.

>Ensure that the connections from the LNC are not mixed up. To make things easier, we recommend you use the (multi-coloured) MULTYMEDIA cable, or mark the various cables with suitable multi-coloured marks.

>Use single, uncut lengths of cable throughout. DVB signals are particularly suscep- tible to interference through the use of F-connectors.

>Screw the F-connectors moderately tight.

>Any outputs not used can, if you wish to achieve a particularly linear frequency dis- tribution, be capped with a 75 Ohm terminal resistor.

>Any inputs not used may not be capped with a terminal resistor.

>The multi-switches can also be mounted in small distribution cabinets using hatclip fasteners.
