In the interest of connuous improvement,
all specicaons of products within this brochure are
subject to change without noce.

SAFETY
The Mulswitches are intended for indoor use only.
Do not install the Mulswitch in damp, humid, hot or dusty areas.
Switch o and remove the power supply when making connecons to the
Mulswitch to avoid damaging the unit.
Always earth bond the Mulswitch using the Earth Bonding Lug and/or the
Earth Terminal Bars to a suitable earth bonding point using minimum 4mm²
diameter earth cable.
PRECAUTIONS
To ensure trouble free operaon:
Do not remove the cover of the Mulswitch or disassemble it as this will
invalidate the guarantee.
The female F connectors on this unit were designed for use with '100' type
coaxial cable with a centre core diameter of 1mm². When using larger CT125
or CT167 cables, you must ensure that suitable F connectors with reducing
pins are used otherwise damage to the unit will occur which will invalidate the
guarantee.
Do not over ghten the F connectors (nger ght only).
GUARANTEE
All Whyte products are guaranteed for a period of 4 years from the date of
purchase against defects. Within this guarantee period, Whyte Technologies
will repair or replace the faulty product. In the unlikely event, please return
any faulty products to your dealer.
The Guarantee will be deemed as void if the serial number on the product
is removed, damaged or illegible. The Guarantee excludes defects caused by
incorrect use, accidental damage, disassembly, water/re/lightning damage or
lack of venlaon.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Whyte Series 5 Launch Amplier range are compact and designed to be
universally exible. They can be used in small, medium and large Integrated
Recepon Systems (IRS).
All Whyte Series 5 Launch Ampliers may be ulised as Launch Ampliers or
Line Ampliers depending on the specic IRS system design requirements.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
Whyte Series 5 Launch Ampliers can be powered directly via the 18V
Auxiliary Input or may be line powered via the SAT input or output trunk lines.
A Whyte Power Supply Unit may be connected to the 18V Auxiliary Input
which will pass power upwards and downwards via the HL and HH lines.
All IF trunk lines are DC passing. The IF inputs provide power to the LNB
irrespecve of whether they are powered locally or line powered.
A switchable 12V supply is provided to power a Mast Amplier if required.
If a Mast Amplier is not present this should be le in the o posion.
There are 2 models available in the Whyte Series 5 Launch Amplier
Range; WATS-530 and WATS-517 are summarised as follows (see technical
specicaons for further details).
