RUNNING CABLES THROUGH HOUSE’S WALL
The hole through the house must be no further than 10 feet from the
NIM box. This is because the power cord—from the power
connector to the ferrite bead—must be inside the house.
1 Near the NIM box, drill a 3/4 inch hole through the house.
2 Draw the power/Ethernet cord through the hole.
3 Draw the power cable through the hole. Make sure that the length
of the power cord, from power connector to the ferrite bead, are
inside the house.
4 Draw the RJ-45 cable through the hole.

PLUGGING CABLES INTO NIM BOX
You must connect cables into the NIM box in the order shown below.
Failure to connect the cable in the proper order makes it difficult to
run the cables through the rubber grommet on the bottom of the
NIM box.
1 Connect the power/Ethernet cord. This is the cord that runs
from the NIM box to the OSU device.
2 Plug in the RJ-45 cord.
3 Plug in the circular end of the power cord. This is the cord that
runs from the power supply in your house to the NIM box.
Note: Do not plug in the power cord to the indoor power supply yet.
