    Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence signal quality  Position your Kramer SID-X2N away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.
  • Page 7: Shielded Twisted Pair/Unshielded Twisted Pair

    Shielded Twisted Pair/Unshielded Twisted Pair Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our digital twisted pair products; the Kramer BC-HDKat6a (CAT 6 23 AWG cable), and the Kramer BC-DGKat7a23 (CAT 7a 23 AWG cable). These specially built cables significantly outperform regular CAT 6 and CAT 7a cables.
