or where they can fall into such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to
keep from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them

Crestron SRD-ANT-1LD-PAK Antenna System
Antenna System:
SRD-ANT-1LD-PAK
Introduction
The SRD-ANT-1LD-PAK is a high quality outdoor antenna system designed for use
with a single Crestron
SRD-AMP-1 High Gain Line Amplifier allows the antenna to be positioned up to
350 feet (cable length) from the tuner, using standard RG-6 cable (not included).
The antenna features a considerably narrower beam width compared to standard
consumer antennas, achieving superior gain and multi-path rejection. Additional
front end filtering provides excellent rejection to nearby out-of-band RF signals from
sources such as Wi-Fi, cellular telephones, and cordless telephones.
A wall mount bracket with elevation and azimuth adjustments is provided for
installation of the antenna to any horizontal or vertical flat surface. The additional
U-bolt and saddle enable mounting to a pole (not included) up to two inches in
diameter. Connections between the antenna, line amplifier, and tuner are achieved
using industry standard RG-6 cable and F-type connectors (not supplied). One F-toSMB adapter cable is also included to adapt the RG-6 cable F-connector to the SMB
input connector on the tuner.
