Unit installation and configuration/Cascade installation
Cascade installation
The MAC unit has a maximum capacity to include 4 AV analogue TV signals at the RF VHF/
UHF output, coded as COFDM Digital TV signals.
To increase this capacity, several MAC units can be cascade connected. The maximum
capacity of a group of N units is 2xN or 4xN TV signals included, as MAC 201 or MAC 401
model respectively.
To cascade connect 2 or more units, connect the RF output 4 of the previous unit to the
TV input (loopthrough) 3 of the next unit (see Installation gure).
NOTE
Illustration above only applies to the MAC 401 model.
For MAC 201 model only AV1 and AV2 inputs are available.
For installations with 2 or more units, each one must be identied with a different TSID
value and each service identied with a different SID value.
To congure TSID and SID values, perform advanced unit conguration (see Advanced
configuration of the unit section).
NOTE
The process of advanced conguration of the unit is explained in the
“Web interface user manual” available at http://www.ikusi.com.
