3. Service Connection – See Figure 3 and Figure 4.
1) Identify incoming service cable and route to “Cable In” fitting on splitter.
2) Connect a jumper cable to “Cable In” of video module and route cable to “Output” of splitter.
3) Connect a jumper cable to “Output” on splitter and route cable to “Antenna” input of Multi-Switch.
4) Identify incoming DSS cables and connect to “LNC-A” and “LNC-B” of the Multi-Switch.
5) Identify Outlet Cables that require DSS signals. Connect to “Receiver” Outputs on Multi-Switch.
6) Connect Outlet Cables that do not require DSS signals to Video Module.
7) Connect Power to “DC IN (20V)”. Route a jumper cable from “DC IN” to power module location.

Disclaimer
OnQ recommends using RG-6 quad shielded solid copper cable in lieu of copper clad steel, especially with
applications that involve distributing DC voltages. Solid copper offers less DC resistance than copper clad steel and
thus less of a voltage drop. Many manufactures of 3
rd
party devices such as satellite receivers’ state NOT to use
copper clad steel for this reason. Use of copper clad steel could result in
voltage drop significant enough to
interfere with a DC voltage dependant device’s operation. As in any RF or RF/DC application, try to avoid excessively
long runs.
