Hybrid PLC and Sub-GHz Communication Evaluation Kit
If the demonstration systems protective enclosure becomes damaged in any way that can expose the high
voltage terminals within, or signs of overheating of any component are observed, immediately disconnect the
equipment, and take the unit out of service.
In the event of a malfunction or unexpected operation, the demonstration system must be returned to
Renesas for service and repair. Please return faulty equipment to:
Renesas Electronics Europe GmbH, Arcadiastrasse 10, 40472 Dusseldorf, Germany
For technical support please contact your local sales representative. See

1.5 Symbols Used

Warning – Dangerous high voltages are present within the Y-G-HYBRID-PLC-RF
communication kit, Power Line Communication Line Coupler.

1.6 Protection of the Sub-GHz RF Analog Front End.

The Y-G-HYBRID-PLC-RF solution kit contains an FEM module on the AFE of the Sub-GHz RF. Directly
connecting two Y-G-HYBRID-PLC-RF communication boards with an un-attenuated SMA cable will cause
permanent damage the to the boards. For this, connect the boards using an SMA connector with 50dB
attenuation between. Alternatively, a wireless configuration may be used.
