An eight conductor CAT 5 cable must be connected between the AR24027 and the Power Inserter
Unit. The wiring for this cable is shown in figure 2.3.
Table 2.3 shows the pin assignment of the three pin, auxiliary port connector. The unit is shipped
with a cover in this connector. The connector can be used during installation as a console port and
also as an audio antenna alignment aid. AFAR has available two cables to convert from this non-
standar 3-pin connector to either a DE-9 connector (for RS-232 console) or to a standard audio jack
(for connection to a headphone). See Appendix D for cable diagrams.
