Specific safety instructions
- The transmitter unit needs to be installed in a dry room or cabinet with sufficient air convection.
- Never connect the PSU to the mains before all cables have been connected to the transmitter.
- Never look in to an open core of a fibre cable or fibre connector that is in operation with a laser transmitter.
- Unfiltered Terrestrial antennas must not be connected directly to the TERR port.
- Un-used F-ports shall be terminated with DC blocked 75 Ohm terminators – like TRIAX DC Blocked Terminator (Art. No. 305349).
- For potential equalization unit needs to be connected to the MET of the building.
- The grounding cable shall be fixed to the grounding clamp of the metal housing.
