Adding An Axt600 Spectrum Manager To An Antenna System - Shure AXT630 User Manual

AXT630 Antenna Distribution System
The RF outputs distribute the signal from a pair of antennas to up to 4 receivers or additional antenna distribution systems. Port-to-port isolation reduces inter-
ference, making the distribution ports the best option for distributing signal to additional devices.
Connecting Devices
Connect an A and B pair of RF outputs from the Antenna System to the A and B inputs of the device.
Input Band Filtering
The input band filters act on the RF distribution ports but do not affect the RF cascade ports. The Wideband setting passes the full frequency range of the An-
tenna Distribution System. Select the band filter that most closely matches the tuning range of connected devices to optimize performance.
When a band filter has been set, operate and tune connected devices within the selected band.
Gain and Attenuation
Use the RF Gain menu to maintain consistent signal levels sent to connected devices. The available adjustment range is -12 to +3 dB when the Cascade ports
are off and -15 to 0 dB when the cascade ports are active.
RF Cascade Ports
The RF cascade ports extend the Antenna Distribution System by providing a connection point for additional receivers, Spectrum Managers, or Antenna Distri-
bution Systems.
When Antenna Cascade is set to Auto, the Cascade ports automatically activate when 12 V DC from the antenna input of a connected device is sensed at the
port connection. When the cascade ports are active, a signal splitting loss occurs of 5 dB (max.).
Receivers with RF cascade outputs can extend the antenna signal to additional receivers within the same band.

Adding an AXT600 Spectrum Manager to an Antenna System

Connect the AXT600 Spectrum Manager to the RF Cascade ports of the Antenna Distribution System.
