connectors on the rear panel of the XD-AD8, and plug the remaining barrel connectors into
up to four Line 6 receivers; repeat with the second supplied cable for up to four more receivers.
•Using 50 ohm BNC-to-BNC cables, connect the rear panel
Antenna A and Antenna B
Distribution Connectors – beginning with the connectors labeled “1” – to the Antenna A and
Antenna B inputs of up to eight Line 6 receivers.
•Attach Line 6 rubber duck, directional or omnidirectional remote antennas to the rear
panel
In A and In B BNC connectors, and place them in line-of-sight with the area(s) where
transmitters will be used.
