2.10.2 Precautions When Using Bias-T
When connecting an external device such as a Bias-T to the output
connectors of the MP2110A, if the output signal includes any DC voltage,
variations in the output of the DC power supply or load may change the
level of the output signal, risking damage to the internal circuits.
CAUTION
•
Do not connect or disconnect any external devices
while DC voltage is impressed.
•
Only switch DC power sources ON and OFF when all
equipment connections have been completed.
