Follow these steps to connect the switchplate to 
the antenna. 

a. First dress the data and power cables from 

the antenna. Strip back the insulation of each 

wire approximately 1/4" (6 mm) and gently 

twist each wire to ensure a good electrical 

connection.

b. Connect the data cable from the antenna to 

the terminal board on the back of the 

switchplate (see Figure 17). Be sure to match 
the wire colors with the terminal board label.

 

Tighten the terminal screws to secure all 
wires in place.

c. Connect the power cable from the antenna to 

the switchplate’s power output terminals (see

The diagram refers to wires by body color/

stripe color. For example, “Blue/White” 

means the blue wire with the white stripe.

Do not connect the data cable’s drain wire 

(shield) to anything. You can simply snip it 

from the cable.
