Connecting to cabinets

Connect the S-Box (SNOW-1810U) and the cabinet to the installed cabinet for video signal transmission.

• Connect the S-Box to the external device before connecting the S-Box to the cabinet.
• Before connecting power to the cabinets, connect the Interface Gender (I/G) to the cabinets first.
• Connect only one type of LED pitch cabinet to a single S-Box. Normal picture quality may not be obtained if different types of cabinets are connected. Do NOT use different types of LED pitch cabinets together.

1. Connect the HDBT ports on the S-Box and I/G cards using a LAN cable.
2. Connect I/G cards and cabinets using OCM cables.
   • Use a cable of CAT 6 (STP type) or higher. STP: Shielded Twisted Pair
   • Connect the HDBT by using a LAN cable that is 15–100 m in length. If you use a cable that is out of the specified length range, the signal quality may be unstable.
   • Use the LAN cables recommended on the HDBaseT website (http://hdbaset.org/hdbaset-recommended-cables). If a LAN cable that is not recommended is used, the HDBT signals may become unstable.
