your home or office through the flexible distribution
of:
Telephone Outlets•
FM/UHF Antenna Signals•
Satellite Signals•
Computer Network•
Internet Connections•
Remote Control Repeaters•
The system comes completely assembled and
configured to minimise installation time and allow
for quick, easy and flexible distribution to up to 24
room outlets within your home or office.
Features of this innovative Distribution Hub include:
Easy Installation & Configuration•
24 x Configurable Room Outlets•
12 x Antenna Outlets•
8 x Computer Network Ports•
8 x Telephone Outlets•
6 x IR Repeater Ports•
10/100 Base Network Hub•
Independent FM/UHF/SAT Gain•
Satellite Signal to All Antenna Outlets•
Sky/Free-View Distribution•
FM/UHF/SAT Inputs•
ADSL Modem Port Including Filter•
18 x CAT5E Patch Leads Included•
1 x RF Modulator Input (Security Camera’s, DVD•
Players, Set-Top Box)
Antenna Distribution
Dedicated inputs are provided for F M , UHF
Antennas and Satellite dish.
An onboard amplifier provides individual control of
each input giving full flexibility when balancing the
system.
Output from the Amplifier provides F M , UHF,
Satellite & AV modulated signals to up to 12 room
outlets. You will now have complete flexibility of
your Set-top box location within the home combined
with the balanced sharing of modulated signals.
All outlets are power-pass capable allowing a
Set-top box to pass power to the Satellite dish.
The Satellite dish may also be powered from the
Amplifier by setting the LNB switch to 13 or 18
volts.
A 12 volt output is provided through the UHF Input
connector to power an optional (not included) Mast-
head amplifier.
Computer Network
An onboard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Switch provides
distribution for an 8 port computer network.
Port 1 is used as an input from the ADSL Modem,
while ports 2-8 may be patched to any one of up to
24 room outlets using the blue patch leads.
Green LED’s indicate the status of each port.
Telephone Distribution
The LN-2400DH allows for 2 incoming lines.
Line 1 and 2 are punched down on the rear of
the patch panel.
Termination is also provided to allow the main
Telephone line to go via a monitored Alarm
panel.
An onboard ADSL filter provides filtered signal
to the 8 Telephone ports on the front of the
patch panel. These 8 Telephone ports can be
patched to any one of up to 24 room outlets
using the grey patch leads.
Line 2 (if connected) has 1 port on the front of
the patch panel which can be patched to any
one of up to 24 room outlets using a grey patch
lead.
IR Distribution
The LN-2400DH provides onboard circuitry to
receive and distribute infra-red remote control
signals via the 6 IR ports on the front of the
patch panel, which can be patched to any one
of up to 24 room outlets using the red patch
leads.
Multiple IR receivers can be used to send IR
signals to one or more products.

Cat5e Termination
As shown in the above diagram, terminate all room outlet CAT5e cables to conform with the T568B
colour code standard.
Using a “punch down” cron tool, start from the right (outlet1), finishing on the left (outlet 8)
The cable clamp is designed to secure 8 cables. In the event less than 8 cables are to be installed,
cables ties may be required.
INSTALLATION TIP: When running cables ensure a minimum of 2 Cat5e cables are run to each room.
ADSL Modem distribution uses 2 cables.

Security Alarm Panel
If a Security Alarm panel is installed, provision has been made to allow the main Telephone line to pass
through the Secuirity panel. This enables the security system to take priority over the line in the event of
an activation.
Using standard two core cable, connect the security panel as shown above. Remove the two “Links” JP1
& JP2 to allow the phone line to pass through the system.

ANTENNA DISTRIBUTION AMPLIFIER
Antenna Cable Connection
As shown above, Antenna cables from the roof & room outlets enter the distribution case from the opening
in the top of the case.
It is recomended that all Antenna cables be of the RG6 type and terminated with Radial or Hex type crimp
connectors.
A minium of (3) RG6 cables should be run from the roof to allow for FM , UHF & Satellite signals.
It is also recommend that (2) or more cables be run to the main entertainment area, allowing for “Set top
Box” signals to be routed back to the distribution hub for distributing modulated signals to other rooms.
