signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often
associated with low quality cables)
Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely
influence signal quality
Position your Kramer 670T, 670RN away from moisture, excessive sunlight
and dust
This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be
