Mounting and Cabling
Step 1 — Mounting
a. Turn off or disconnect all equipment power sources.
b. Mount the IN1606 to a rack using the pre-installed rack ears (see gure 2) or remove the
rack ears and use an optional mounting kit for under-the-desk mounting (see gure 3).
Step 2 — Connecting inputs
a. Connect analog video sources to the 15-pin HD connectors (see b above).
b. Connect digital HDMI or DVI (with an appropriate adapter) sources to the HDMI
connectors (see c above).
c. Connect audio input sources to the 5-pole captive screw connectors (see d above).
d. Connect Mic/Line input sources to the 3-pole captive screw connectors (see e above).
Step 3 — Connecting outputs
a. Connect suitable video displays to the HDMI connectors (see f above).
b. Connect audio output devices to the 5-pole captive screw connectors (see g above).
ATTENTION: For unbalanced outputs, do not connect wires to the “-” poles
