PREPARING THE INTERCONNECT CABLES (INCLUDING NYCOIL)

The NewsCaster VT2 is flexibly designed for use with multiple IF cable types. The STANDARD
cable types support diplexed +48 VDC for transport to the RF Head. Belden 1694A (Coax) and
Belden 8232A (Triax) are certified for this "one cable" configuration. Other common cables, such
as Belden 1505, may require the use of the AUX Power option. Refer to Table 7 for more details on
using the cables types mentioned. Table 8 details the AUX Power cable.
Figure 14: Nycoil Block Diagram – Standard Coax (or Triax) Configuration
Most broadcasters use a Nycoil cable conduit between the truck and the mast top. The required
length of the Nycoil cable is twice the difference between the extended and nested mast height.
