The UHF/VHF input may be used to receive TV antenna or CATV signals. When
combining incoming TV antenna or CATV signals with the incoming satellite signal,
it is necessary to use a diplexer to separate out signals before connecting to the
satellite receivers.
For the power connection to the multiswitch:
Make a coax jumper cable of the desired length.
Connect one end of the jumper to the power connection on the
multiswitch.
Connect the other end of the jumper to the included power transformer.
Plug the power transformer into a powered outlet.
Note: Power the multiswitch using the included power supply only, do
not power the multiswitch until all other connections are made.
