Step 2 – Connect the AUX Cable
The AUX cable is used for PDR8000 to detect and communicate with the Booster Pack.
Depending on the revision of PDR8000, the AUX connector on the side panel may have either a

Step 3 – Connect the External RF Cables and Antenna
This configuration requires two external RF cables and an antenna. These cables and antenna
shall be connected as follows (refer to Figure 34 for wiring diagram)
1. Connect an RF cable to RF OUT port on the side panel of PDR8000 and the other end
of it to RF IN connector on the Booster Pack's side panel
2. Connect an RF cable to RF IN port on the side panel of PDR8000 and the other end of it
to RX connector on the external duplexer
3. Connect an RF cable to the RF OUT of the Booster Pack's side panel and the other end
of it to the TX connector on the external duplexer
4. Connect the antenna to the ANT connector on the external duplexer
Step 4 – Connect the Power Cables
Once the AUX, RF cables and antenna are connected, the power cables (AC or DC) shall be
connected to PDR8000 and Booster Pack. Ensure that the power cables to the units are
connected securely before plugging the cables to wall outlet or DC power supply.
1. Connect the DC or AC power cable to PDR8000
2. Power up the PDR8000
3. Connect the DC or AC power cable to Booster Pack
