What are some guidlines for antenna distribution?
When racking multiple receivers together, it is best to use an antenna distribution system like the APD4+. The APD4+ provides power and antenna connectors for 4 ½ rack receivers and can be cascaded to run antennas for up to 16 systems from 2 antennas (using 5 APD4+ units). With the REV-D receiver’s antenna pass through feature, one APD4+ can supply antennas for 24 channels of REV wireless. One important thing to keep in mind is to connect the input of each additional splitter to the output of the original APD4+ (the one connected directly to the antennas) to prevent a loss of range.
