6.3 Enhanced Infrastructure
Platform
Larger homes or customers with greater structured
cabling needs require larger SMC capacity. Contractors
can either:
• Install more than one SMC to accommodate the
required distribution modules
• Install a Series 420 SMC
✍
Take Note: Leviton SMCs can be readily combined to pro-
vide all the distribution needed for structured cabling projects.
There are no design limitations to the potential size of a job.
6.3.1 Series 420 SMC
The Series 420 is
Leviton’s largest SMC
measuring forty-two inch-
es high. It can accommo-
date several panels and
modules, allowing it to
manage many high tech
functions simultaneously.
Its dimensions and
details are similar to the
280 Series except for its
greater length.
The 280 and 420
Structured Media Center
can accommodate a
varying array of individual
distribution modules from
Leviton’s Integrated
Networks™ Structured
Media line including:
• 3X8 Bi-Directional Video
Module, P/N 47690-38B
• 1X6 Passive Audio Module, P/N 48211-6A
• Video Amplifier, P/N 48210-VA
• 1X4, 1X6, and 1X8 Video Splitters, P/N’s (1 GHz)
47690-4C, 47690-6C, and 47690-8C: P/N’s (2 GHz)
47690-4C2, 47690-6C2, 47690-8C2
• 10Base-T (w/power adapter)(P/N 47605-EH) or
10/100Base-T Network Hub (w/power adapter)(P/N
47605-ETX)
• Video Sequencer and Modulator (P/N 48213-CVS)
An enhanced infrastructure for a four-bedroom home
would include the following components in a SMC 420:
• Coax surge protector (P/N 47690-6S)
• AC Power Module (P/N 47605-DP)
• Advanced Small Office Unit consisting of two
Category 5 Voice & Data Modules, a Telephone
Distribution Module, a 1X6 Video Splitter, and 7”
Patch Cords
This infrastructure will accommodate a maximum of
twelve telephone locations or twelve data locations,
and six video locations. You can expand the system to
more telephone, data networking, and video locations
by adding more modules.
6.3.2 Media Versatile Panel
The Media Versatile™ Panel, which is based on the pro-
fessional-grade enclosures typical of commercial instal-
lations, comes with a 3/4" plywood open architecture
backing that allows you to attach your modules with
wood screws in any pattern you choose. This versatile
panel is perfect for remodeling jobs where you might
find existing components of varying sizes that a cus-
tomer wishes to reuse while also adding new Leviton
modules.
Details
• Openings for both cable bundles and 1" and 1.5"
conduit fittings
• Securable door
• Wall or surface-mounted
• Powder-coated, 18 gauge steel construction
Dimensions
• 24"h X 14"w X6"d
While the Pre-Configured Structured Cable Panels work
very well for basic installations, your installation might
call for a more customized infrastructure.
