1) For information on configuring the CDS-100 Diversity Switch with the CDM-700
Broadcast Satellite Modems for 1:1 (diversity switching) operation, see:
• Chapter 4. MODEM
AND SWITCH CONFIGURATION
• CDM-700 Satellite Modem Installation and Operation Manual
(CEFD P/N MN/CDM700.IOM)
2) For information on the cables identified in this section, see Appendix A. CABLE

5.10.1 CDS-100CDM-700 Control Interface Cabling Using Kit
KT-0020556
1) Excluding modems, the KT-0020556 CDS-100 Diversity Switch Kit (Sect. 5.2.2)
provides all components shown in Figure 5-43.
2) When you connect the Control Interface cables between the CDS-100 and the
modems, make sure that you securely fasten the screw locks on the Type ‘D’
connectors. This prevents accidental disconnection of the cables, particularly
when you are removing and replacing a backup unit.
3) Terrestrial data interface components/kits must be ordered separately. See
Sect. 5.10.2 for CDM-700 terrestrial data interface configuration and connection
examples and details.
