CONNECTIONS:
The Xtra Link system uses the coaxial cable that carries the TV RF signal from the source equipment in the main room to the remote room, to send the IR control signals back to the source equip- ment. The coaxial cable may be up to one mile in length.
If you already have a coaxial cable con- necting your video equipment with a re- mote room, your current hookup should be similar to Fig. 2. If it isn't, run a single length of RG59 or preferably RG6 cable from the Main Room to the Remote Room.
NOTE: If RF amplifier(s) are used any- where in the line of coaxial cable be- tween the CPL94B Coupler and the INJ94
