4. CONNECTING THE ANTENNA SIGNAL
TO THE MEGAVIEW70 MODULATOR
Two types of aerial plug are used in Europe: the IEC plug and the F plug. The latter has the
least loss and is therefore often used in better quality systems. Your Marmitek MegaView70
uses this type of plug.
Follow the description below to connect the antenna cable.
Connecting an antenna cable RF IN (3)
Connect the existing antenna cable to the ‘RF IN’ connector of the MegaView70. Depending
on the current situation you may need to disconnect some of the cables before you can
connect the antenna.
Connecting an antenna cable to RF OUT (4)
Connect your antenna-network to the ‘RF OUT’ of the MegaView70.
If you want to watch this signal at multiple places, you must use a splitter in your network
(your supplier of antenna materials can advice you in this). On every television connected to
the antenna system after the modulator the added audio/video signal can be watched on
the selected channel (see display).
Connection antenna cable ToTV (5)
Connect the ‘To TV’ of the MegaView70 to the antenna input of the TV using an antenna
cable (not supplied).
Tips:
• Make sure the connectors are fitted properly to the coax cable.
• Use high frequency shielded connectors to prevent radiation and interference.
• Use only broadband amplifiers and splitters with a range of 5-1000 MHz.
