Chapter 1 11
Preparing for Installation
Note
If your total RG-6 coaxial cable length
from the dish to the satellite receiver,
HDTV, or HD set-top converter is more
than 100 feet per coax cable, you may
need an additional installation
component, such as a line amplifier or
multi-switch, to compensate for the
longer cable length.
Tip
To avoid short circuits, do not use
twist-on connectors for the coaxial
cables. Use crimp-on connectors
instead.
Note
You must use Type CL2 RG-6 coaxial
cable(s) from the multiswitch to the
SATELLITE IN jack on the digital
satellite receiver, HDTV, or HD set-top
converter. Other types of coaxial
cable, such as that used for cable TV
(RG-59), will not work for your system.
