4.2 Signal and Bonding Interconnections

Three types of cables run between sections to connect signal and ground. Signal runs
between display sections by connecting fiber cables to installed couplers (Figure 25). Bonding
jumpers are used to connect all display sections together, requiring that only one section be
connected to the ground rod (Figure 27). Ribbon cables are used to connect signal between
modules (Figure 26). Refer to the following instructions on connecting these between
sections. Refer to Fiber Routing Drawings located in Appendix A for additional detail.

Between Top and Bottom Sections

• Locate the fiber cable in the bottom left corner of

the top section. Insert it through the hub into the
bottom section and connect to the fiber coupler
located in the top left module opening.

• Locate the bonding jumper in the bottom left

corner of top section. Insert it through the hub into
the bottom section and connect to the bonding
jumper stud in the top left end of bottom section.

Between Left and Right Sections

• Locate the bonding jumper in the lower left end of the right section. Route through

into the left section and connect to the bonding jumper stud.

• Connect ribbon cables along the seam between displays from the right section to the

left section.

• When a Mirror display is being used (2V configuration), locate the fiber cable in the

bottom left end of the right section. Route through the holes between display sections
and connect to the coupler in the right end of the left section.
