7. Installation Site Requirements
7-1 Temperature and humidity conditions
The installation site should meet the following conditions:
• Operating temperatures: 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F) (governed by installation conditions)
• Operating humidity: Up to 85%
We recommend against installing electronic products such as this unit in locations subject to high humidity. If the
unit is to be installed in a location subject to relatively high humidity, observe the following:
• Failure to install the unit in unacceptable ways may result in non-warranty damages.
• Make sure the unit is grounded.
• Condensation shall not occur.
• Do not allow water or other liquids to enter the unit.
7-2 Prevent condensation
One of the chief sources of problems during the winter is "condensation". Rapid temperature fluctuations can deposit
water vapor inside the unit, degrading performance. If condensation occurs, turn the unit off and leave it off for an
hour or so. It is also good practice to increase the room temperature gradually.
7-3 Repeater box anchoring method
• To anchor the repeater box by hanging it on a wall for example, use the anchor holes in the tabs on both sides of
the box (see 6. Names of Parts).
• When installing it behind the plasma display, install it below the center line of the plasma display in order to
prevent the exhausted air from raising the temperature.
Lower side
• Because the direction that the repeater box is installed is not specified, install it in a direction suited to the wiring.
– But be certain that it is not enclosed by anything that will block the discharge of heat.
7-4 Other installation conditions
The unit is designed for indoor use, and is not suited for open-air use. Installation in locations that are even partially
exposed to the elements may lead to malfunctions or breakdown caused by any of the following. And if there is
danger of it being exposed to similar effects even when installed indoors, it is necessary to block the outside air by
cooling the casing etc.
• Water and dust
• Changes in temperature and humidity
• Salt-bearing wind
Note:
• The optical cables may break if they are subjected to impact or stress. When fixing a cable, use a method that does
not expose it to impact or stress (i.e., avoid using staplers and other means that involve impact).
• Do not pull or bundle the cables so they apply stress directly on the connectors that are connected. If it is used with
stress applied, the connectors may break or be damaged, or the contact may fail. When winding and bundling excess
cable, make sure that the minimum radius of curvature of optical cable is not less than 15mm (19/32 in.) (diameter
30mm (1-3/16 in.)).

Page 9
8. When Passing the Cables Thorough the CD Tube
8-1 The CD (Combined Duct) tube
CD stands for Combined Duct. The CD (Combined Duct) tube is
generally used embedded in concrete or as the protective conduit for
underground cable work, because it is a polyethylene tube that is not
noncombustible.
CD tube dimensions
Tube name Internal diameter External diameter
CD-28 28 mm (1-3/32 in.) 34 mm (1-11/32 in.)
– The nominal diameter that can be used with the optical system cable is CD-28 or more, because of the external
shape of the connector that is used. Be careful not to use one with smaller diameter.
8-2 Precautions when installing a CD tube
Passing nearly 30 m (98.43 ft) of cable through a CD tube is extremely difficult even when it is installed horizontally.
And because it is actually bent and rises or descends vertically, subjecting it to heavy load and making it difficult to
install, please install it to satisfy the following conditions.
1. Make the radius of curvature 500 mm (19-11/16 in.) or more.
(If the ends of the cables are combined as explained in 8-4 when they are passed through, it does not bend lower
than 500 mm (19-11/16 in.).)
2. Make the total rising/descending vertical distance 7 m (22.96 ft) or less, and the vertical height difference 3 m
(9.84 ft) or less.
Examples:
Case A

– If criteria 1 and 2 cannot be satisfied, cut the CD tube midway and pass the cables through them separately.
8-3 Passing cables through the CD tube
When a pull-through line has already been inserted in the CD tube, attach the cables to the pull-through line and pull
them through the CD tube. Make sure the connection has as few protrusions as possible so that it will not break during
the pass through work. If a pull-through line has not been inserted in the CD tube, pull it through with mechanics wire
etc.. Prepare mechanics wire etc. with total length of 30 m (98.43 ft) to pull it through. There are cases where, as the
cable is passed through, it produces high friction with the CD tube so it
cannot be passed through. In such cases apply pass-through grease or
powder to the cables so that they will pass through smoothly.
We recommend that you prepare pass-through grease before passing
the cables through the CD tube.
But it will not move 30 m (98.43 ft) even if grease is used.
In such cases cut the CD tube midway and pass the cables through one
CD tube then through the other CD tube.

8. When Passing the Cables Thorough the CD Tube
8-4 Method of combining cables before the pass-through step
Step 1
Wrap the connector in a sheet.
Step 2
Overlap the optical cable and the pull-through line.

Sheet that was wrapped
around the repeater box
(cut to the suitable size).
Held in place gently with
cellophane tape.

(do not let it become undone)
Pull-through line
Step 3
Combine the optical cable and the pull-through
line with adhesive tape being careful that the
knot does not become untied.
The strength is applied in this part when it is
pulled.
Step 4
Anchor the connector with adhesive tape
coated with pass-through grease to protect it
so that it is not exposed and does not catch on
the tube.
Optical cable
Adhesive tape
Slightly separated from
the connector.
Adhesive tape
As short as possible.
(If it is long, resistance is produced when it is passed
through a bent CD tube.)
Notes:
• When pulling the optical cable, do not pull only the connector.
• Be sure to never combine the pull-through line so that it applies direct force on the connector, because this may pull
out the connector.
• The force used to pull the optical cable must be no greater than 40N (Newton).
If it is pulled with force greater than 40N (Newton), the properties of the optical cable will deteriorate.
