HARDWAREINSTALLANTIONandCONNECTIONS
1. The unit can be rack mounted in a standard EIA 19” rack. Attach the rack mounts if the
unit is to be installed in a rack.
2. Use a 75Ω coaxial cable with RCA connectors to connect the video source (e.g., CATV,
DVD, VCR, Camera) to the unit’s yellow RCA VIDEO INPUT jack (IN1…IN4 depending
on the CSD model).
Note: If the ASI input is required then use a cable with a BNC connector between the
video source and the ASI IN jack.
Repeat this step for each video source connection.
It is highly recommended that quality coaxial cable and connectors be used for all video
source connections.
3. Use RCA cables to connect the audio source to the red / white AUDIO L and AUDIO R
INPUT jacks (IN1…IN4 depending on the CSD model). Use the red and white jacks for
audio input or either one for a single input.
Repeat this step for each audio source connection.
Be sure the video and audio connections for each source are consistent with the unit’s
inputs (IN1…IN4 depending on the CSD model).
It is highly recommended that quality cables and connectors be used for all audio source
connections.
4. Use a quality 75Ω coaxial cable with “F” connectors from the unit’s RF OUT jack to the
distribution system (combiner or reverse splitter) or directly to a television.
5. Connect the included 12VDC 3A power supply to the unit’s DC 12V POWER jack.
6. Connect the 12VDC 3A power supply to an appropriately rated AC power outlet.
