1ENGLISHDESCRIPTIONThe Shure PA821 Antenna Combiners actively combine antenna out-puts from up to eight PSM wireless transmitters to a single antenna, im-proving RF performance and reducing rack clutter.INSTALLATIONSet the power switch on the front panel to Off before installing. Connect the unit to an AC power source using the supplied power cable. Switch the power On to use the device. The power light will illuminate. Power the unit Off when not in use or before disconnecting the unit from the AC power source.8-TO-1 COMBINING:1. Using the supplied BNC-BNC cables, connect the ANTENNA OUT-PUT of each transmitter to the ANTENNA INPUTS of the PA821 (Figure 2).2. Attach an antenna to the MAIN OUT of PA821. For wideband appli-cations, use PA805WB directional antenna (Figure 1).3. Connect the PA821 to a power outlet using one of the supplied power cables. The PA821 contains a universal power supply to oper-ate anywhere in the world.FIGURE 1 FIGURE 2! IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS !1. READ these instructions.2. KEEP these instructions.3.
