5.6.7

Rear Microphone Installation

Connect the optional MEK-4 (micro-
phone extension kit) to the Rear MIC
(six pin) connector on the rear panel,
then tighten the cable nut (see illustra-
tion at the right).
5.6.8

Optional SSM-70H (RAM4) Installation

The GX6500E/GX6000E is capable of using two SSM-70H (RAM4) Remote
Station Microphones to remotely control the Radio, AIS, DSC and PA/Fog
functions. In addition the GX6500E/GX6000E can operate as a full function
intercom system between the SSM-70H (RAM4) and the GX6500E/GX6000E.
Do not connect or remove the SSM-70H (RAM4) microphone while
the radio is powered on. This may result in equipment failure.
1. Connect the CT-100 extension
cable to the RAM 1 or RAM 2 (eight
pin) connector on the rear panel,
then tighten the cable nut (see
illustration at the right).
2. Install the ferrite core (supplied with the SSM-70H Remote Station Micro-
phone) to the extension cable, then snap its two halves together, per the
illustration on the next page.
3. Attach the ferrite core as close as possible to the MIC plug, as shown below.
4. Finally, wind some plastic tape
around each ferrite core, to prevent
vibration from causing the two
halves to split apart.
5. Referring to illustration below, make a 1.2" (30 mm) hole in the wall, then
insert the extension cable into this hole. Connect the gasket and mount
base to the extension cable connector using the nut.
