SECTION 4Minimum TV Cabling RequirementsTV Cabling RequirementsAll TV cabling is done in RG6 Quad Shield Coax Cable. The Clipsal Quad Shield Coax Cable is Foxtel approved. RG6Quad Shield Coax has excellent shielding against electrical noise, which can affect picture quality.The use of a top quality coax cable will greatly minimise any call-backs for the electrical contractor.F-Type Connectors3105RG6Q3BRG6 Quad Shield Coax CableF-Type connectors are the best connectors to use in an MATV installation. F-Type connectors have very low lossesand are easy to connect. Clipsal recommend two types of F-Type connectors on a Clipsal StarServe ® System, theRadial Crimp 3105RG6F or the Compression Connector 3105RG6FC50.3105RG6FRadial Crimp3105PM-FFF-Type Female Adaptorto Male PAL3105RG6FC50Compression ConnectorTo make up good quality fl y leads on site, Clipsal recommend the use of F-Type to PAL adaptors.MATV Tools RequiredTo perform a Clipsal StarServe ® Installation quickly and effectively you require the right tools for the job.3105CS6Cable Stripper to suitRG6 Quad Shield3105CT611Crimper for Radial Crimp F-Type connection3105CT611CCompression tool to suit F-Type compression connectors32 INSTALLATION GUIDE
SECTION 4Minimum TV Cabling RequirementsTV MechsAll TV outlets are to be F-Type – F-Type Connectors (part number 30PFM). The Clipsal 30PFM is a straight throughconnector. This connector has excellent electrical performance and minimal losses. This connector allows IR to passthrough for the remote control IR engine built into the Clipsal StarServe ® VDU.Failure to use the30PFM may result inthe infrared controlto fail.30PFMF-Type ConnectorsTV Fly LeadsClipsal has F-Type to PAL fl y leads in its range to suit Clipsal StarServe ® installations.Fly leads are the weakest point in any TV system. Fly leads are subjected to being twisted and tangled with powercords behind TV entertainment units. Using RG6 quad shield coax fl y leads will minimise any potential problemsoccurring and reduce any potential call-backs.Fly leads can be manufactured on site or purchased as a fi nished product.3105FL318MWQF-Type to PAL Fly Lead(White)Digital Terrestrial Meter3105FL318MBQF-Type to PAL Fly Lead(Black)A digital terrestrial meter is used to measure the Signal Strength of a MATV System. This is one of the mostimportant tools you can own, as it will save you lots of time and money. Instead of guessing the antenna directionand signal strength you can accurately align the antenna and measure the signal strength.2ANDTMDigital Terrestrial MeterINSTALLATION GUIDE33
