RF Cable Installation 
Overview 
The GS7000 Node can accept up to six RF cables. These cables carry forward path RF 
signal outputs and reverse path RF signal inputs. The RF cables also supply the 45 to 
90 V AC power input. 
 
Trimming the Center Conductor 
The GS7000 Node requires pin-type connectors for all RF connections. 
Standard pin connectors, with pins extending 1.5 in. to 1.6 in. (3.8 cm to 4.064 cm) 
from connector shoulder, require no trimming. You must trim longer pins before 
inserting them into the housing.
