RF Cable Installation

The node can accept up to four RF cables. These cables carry forward path RF signal outputs and reverse path
RF signal inputs. The RF cables also supply the 45 to 90 V AC power input. Power can also be supplied
through the 2 Ports (3 and 6) which do not support RF signals.

Trimming the Center Conductor

The node requires pin-type connectors for all RF connections.
Standard pin connectors, with pins extending 1.5 in. to 1.6 in. (3.8 cm to 4.064 cm) from connector shoulder,
require no trimming. You must trim longer pins before inserting them into the housing.

Trimming Using the Integrated Cradle

To trim long pins using the integrated cradle, follow these steps.
1 Place the connector on the cradle as shown in the following illustration.
