upgrades are available (where appropriate). 
2.1  Achieving the Best Performance 
To achieve the best performance: 
• Use only good quality connection cables to avoid interference, deterioration 
in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often 
associated with low quality cables) 
• Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils 
• Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely 
influence signal quality 
• Position your Kramer TP-410 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and 
dust
