1. RF OUTPUT

Coaxial cable output to the receiver (971 – 1088 MHz). Power supplied to the LNB from receiver
through this cable at 9-16 VDC.

IMPORTANT:

Use only RG 6 coaxial cable with the supplied waterproof “F” connectors to

connect Receiver and LNB. Cable lengths should be a minimum of 10 feet and a maximum of
100 feet.

POWERED DOWN. CONNECTIONS MADE WHILE THE RECEIVER IS ON COULD
CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE UNIT.

LNB OPERATION

A. LOCATION / MOUNTING

Since the LNB is weatherproof, it can be wall or pole mounted using the equipment supplied with
environmental systems only. (MiniLink 5.8 model numbers with an “E” at the end are environmental
systems.) Contact KBC if you do not have wall/pole mounting hardware.

B. MAINTENANCE

Your KBC product is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. Use the system only
within the environmental specifications indicated. High temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices and melt plastic parts. Excessive mechanical shock can damage the case,
connectors or internal circuit board. Use the supplied weatherproof F-Connectors and crimp onto
the Quad-shielded RG 6 coaxial cable to ensure weatherproof mounting.
