AirHarmony-4000 (Integrated Duplexers) Installation Guide 5.5.1 Power Cable Preparation Tip: It is good practice to label both ends of the cable to identify which AirHarmony-4000 unit it is connected to. Tip: It is good practice to leave a spare loop of cable (approximately 0.5m). This will allow for easier wiring and will allow the cable to be re-terminated if necessary in the future. The power cable is connected to the AirHarmony-4000 connector (marked PWR) on the bottom panel of the unit. 1.
