Connecting the Torpedo to the Network
1.
Connect the Torpedo's Ethernet port to the IP network using an Ethernet UTP cable (Type Cat 5 or higher)
(DVB-S/S2 shown in following example).
10/100 Base-T
Ethernet port
To connect the serial interface (where applicable), please refer to the User's Guide.
Connecting RF Input to the Torpedo
1.
Connect the input cable from the DVB antenna or satellite dish to the Torpedo's RF Input, using the appro-
priate connector(s).
•
Torpedo DVB-T/T2: For RF terrestrial (DVB-T/T2) signals, use a 75 ohm IEC aerial connector (DVB-
T/T2CAM example shown below).
•
Torpedo DVB-S/S2: For SD and HD satellite (DVB-S and DVB-S2) signals, use a 75 ohm Type F Female
connector.
NOTE
With the DVB-T/T2 Torpedo, it is possible to cascade the RF Input to other Torpedoes. To do so,
connect the RF Output of the first Torpedo to the RF Input of the subsequent Torpedo.
However, signal integrity and quality when cascading is limited. Each time you cascade the RF Input from
one Torpedo to the other, there is a loss in signal strength. Therefore, you cannot cascade indefinitely.
(The loss is related to the original input signal.)
