There are some terms used throughout this manual that may need some clarification. This section provides the basic terminology and usage as defined in a UStec system.
Bandwidth
carry when it is correctly installed. The range of frequencies the system will handle.
Baseband
There is no manipulation of the signal as in Broadband. An example are the RCA outputs on your VCR.
Bonded Pairs
together during manufacturing to resist separation and exhibit greater dimen­sional stability.
Broadband -
with RF video systems, baseband signals are modulated to individual fre­quency ranges. It is the sum of all these used frequencies that refers to broad­band. Broadband is also being defined in Internet terms to designate a high bandwidth connection.
Bundled Cable
unit. UStec bundled cables are 2x2. Bundled cables are also called loomed, speed-wrap, and whip-cable construction.
Cable Modem -
the high speed cable signal to Ethernet and or USB.
- The amount of information the telecommunications system can
- Transmitting signals sequentially in their own frequency range.
- Conductor pairs in twisted-pair cables that are bonded
Transmission of signals in a broad frequency range. Typically
- An assembly of cables “bundled” together to form one cable
A device used for cable high speed Internet access. Converts
Cat 5E cable –

Internal – Connection port on the tecPort. It is used for sending RF modu­lated signals back into the system for whole house delivery. If satellite is used in the home, it also distributes the satellite signals to the satellite receivers.
Internal Signals - Signals generated within the home and processed and dis­tributed by the tecGate panel. The signals may be from VCRs, DVD players, audio equipment, security cameras, and home computers.
LNB – A device situated on the front of a satellite dish that collects the weak signals from the satellites typically at 12.2 -12.7 GHz, amplifies them and block converts them to 950- 1450 MHz. Technically this is actually an LNBF. An acronym for Low Noise Block converter/Feedhorn.
Network - The network is the UStec system and any connected devices to it. That can include but is not limited to computers, satellite receivers, VCR’s, DVD’s, televisions, or telephones. When most people think of networks, they envision computers. Your UStec system is the next evolution of that including all devices.
Network Camera- UStec offers a line of both indoor and outdoor color and black and white cameras that are viewable on any television in the home. Typical uses for them are front and rear door security cameras, as well as baby monitoring.
NID – The Network Interface Devices is the connection point typically on the side your home where the connections from the street services such as tele­phone, cable, and high speed broadband are connected to the UStec house network. From the NID your services pass to the UStec system in your home.
Phone- The connection point for the phone on a tecPort.
Reflection - The phenomenon that occurs when an AC signal encounters a
different medium or impedance and is returned to the original medium. Also called Return Loss
Return Channel - Signals that pass from the residence back to the service pro­vider headend.
RF Modulator – This device is capable of taking any device with baseband line level outputs (RCA style jacks) and turning them into a cable TV or UHF

television channels. For example this is useful for watching a satellite receiver or DVD player anywhere in the house.
RG6 Coaxial Cable – Cable designed for the distribution of broadband. UStec cable is designed and guaranteed to handle frequencies up to 2400 MHz (2.4 GHz).
RJ31X – An interface to make connections to security equipment is called the RJ31X. The jack is an industry standard interface that allows the security/fire panel to obtain telephone line control to notify the proper authorities.
Set Top Box- A device such as a satellite receiver or cable television company converter box for viewing of television signals.
Standard - A specification or a set of specifications that describe the qualities or criteria that a product or service must meet to receive the approval of an industry association or other oversight group.
Star Topology - A system design in which the cable runs radiate outward in the shape of a star from a central location. Each run is continuous, i.e., it has no taps and no splices.
Structured Wiring - The process of planning and installing a high bandwidth distribution system that transports audio, video, data, and telecommunica­tions throughout a home.
12
T568A -Wiring method specified in EIA/TIA-568-A standard for Category 5 plugs and jacks.
tecFlex Line Chooser – Each Category 5E jack in your room locations is capa­ble of carrying up to 4 telephone lines (numbers). The line chooser makes it simple to connect to the line of your choice at any jack.
tecGate Server - A modular, expandable electronic gateway for the in-home distribution of external services such as CATV, satellite TV, broadcast TV, tele­phone, and high speed. It is also called the tecCenter or tecPanel.
tecPort – The termination point for a tecWire bundle is at the wall plate called a tecPort. It has 2 RG6 Coax and 2 enhanced Category 5E wires. There are other configurations available as well such as for wall phone’s, phone only locations, or independent data jacks.

tecReady/tecLAN/iLAN – This is a a model classification system to denote features. The tecReady systems provide for basic connections, the tecLan is the next step in line, and the iLAN is the all in wonder product.
tecWire- tecWire is a jacketed bundled cable providing 2 enhanced Category 5E cables and 2 high frequency RG 6 coaxial cables.
Topology - The physical layout of a system and how it is connected.
TV-out – The port on the tecPort that television or VCR’s are connected to.
Twisted Pair Cable - A cable in which the pairs of conductors are twisted
together in a carefully controlled manner to achieve improved electrical char­acteristics for high frequency signal use. The twisting helps keep radiation and absorption to a minimum.
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) Cable - A form of twisted pair cable that does not contain a grounded conductive shield. When a signal is transmitted, equal current flows through each of the wires in the pair, but in opposite directions.The twisting of the pairs keeps them close together and their fields overlap and cancel out, eliminating radiation into adjacent pairs.

There are four main stages to your UStec system.
•Termination cabinet (tecCenter)
•2X2 tecWire
•tecPorts
•Network attached devices.
UStec Structured Wiring User Manual

Page 16
When your home was wired, the UStec cabinet and 2X2 tecWire wiring sys­tems were put in place. These are the first two of the four stages.
In the room locations the connection points called tecPorts are the third stage.
Lastly any UStec components such as RF camera’s, IP camera’s, or your elec­tronic components such as televisions, etc. make up the fourth component set.
The tecCenter is the central location in your home where all the tecWires are terminated in one location. This is the network hub. All signals that enter your home, or are generated in the home are distributed through the UStec tecCenter panel. This is what allows you to use an RF modulator in one room, plug it into the internal cable and distribute to the whole home.

The most important part of your system is the tecWire in the walls. It is easy to make changes to devices outside the walls, but difficult to make changes inside them.
The tecCenter installed in your home was chosen to meet the criteria set forth by either the homeowner or the builder. The following chart shows the differences between the systems, and methods for choosing the right system.

800 Series for Satellite TV & Antenna

800 Series for Satellite TV & Antenna
The HDTV Satellite TV model lines deliver full high definition satellite signals throughout the home to satellite receivers at up to 8 TV set locations. Satellite signals are distributed though the “Internal” coax tecPort wall connections along with cable or off-air broadcast TV through the “TV” coax tecPort con­nections. The system does not restrict modulated inputs at any tecPort loca­tion. The 800 Satellite Series offers only passive broadcast TV signal distribution. This configuration is not recommended for CATV applications since it requires a minimum of 15 dB signal input levels and lacks the guard band high-pass filter that the CX-AMP series amplifiers provide.
Common to all systems is the UX-10x cabinet that houses all the wire and tec­Center equipment. Each cabinet houses an electrical outlet in the lower right hand corner to power UStec and third part peripherals.
Each system is enclosed in a integrated plastic cover and drywall trim kit. Each cover can be locked with the addition of the cover locking kit, part num­ber UX-408.

tecSat 800 Basic

This system is capable of distributing satellite and pre-amplified off air antenna signals to 8 different locations throughout the home. The CX­HDA58 module is an integrated satellite/off-air distribution system. The sat­ellite multiswitch will handle 2 or 4 LNB (HDTV) input cables from the sat­ellite dish(s) for independent distribution to 8 locations. The multiswitch has an integrated internals amplifier to take in home generated signals from an optional RF modulator and pass them for distribution to all rooms in the home. This occurs by combining the in home generated signals with the off air antenna via the TV out ports.
The TP-DM10B telecom module will distribute up to 4 incoming telephone lines out to 9 different locations in the home. This system can be upgraded to the following systems.

Cable Modem Hookup

Cable Modem Hookup
Most cable companies are now offering cable modem service which is a high speed Internet service for the home. Most cable companies utilize the DOC­SIS cable specifications for their networks and this section describes its con­nection.
The service is two way meaning that signals travel in two directions.
The downstream signal is the signal that originates at the cable company hea­dend and comes to the home. This signal occupies a standard NTSC channel (6 MHz) and is assigned by the cable company.
The upstream signal are signals originating from your home that go back to the cable company headend.
Example:
You want to browse to the UStec website. You open your web browser and type in http://www.ustecnet.com. This is an upstream request back to the hea­dend. The cable company then sends your web browser via the downstream connection the UStec web page.

DSL hookup

DSL hookup
Most telecommunication companies, large Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and some satellite companies are offering Digital Subscriber Line services.
DSL is a high speed Internet service that is typically piggybacked on top of your existing telephone line. This can be piggy backed because the voice line is at a lower frequency than the DSL.
The one drawback to this piggybacking DSL is that there is some residual noise on the voice line when in use. Your service provider may have provided DSL filters for your telephones. The logic behind this is that a filter is used at every telephone. Below is a much simpler method of connecting a DSL through your UStec system with only one filter.

Satellite Television Hookup

Satellite Television Hookup
UStec provides a number of satellite options for your viewing pleasure. By far the easiest systems to utilize satellite are our CX-HDA58 and CX-DSS58. Both units are a 4 satellite input to 8 receiver output systems. This means that up to 8 receivers can be watching separate channels at the same time.
Please also note that although these have 4 LNB feeds in, it will work just as well with satellite systems that have not upgraded to the second satellite loca­tion (2 LNB). High definition programming, as well as other ethnic and local programming is available from the second satellite (LNB 3 and 4).
The CX-HDA58 and CX-DSS58 are designed to use the internal cables bi­directionally; by distributing satellite signals out to eight rooms while main­taining the ability to send modulated signals back on the same coax. Modu­lated signals that return to the multiswitch are amplified to ensure good modulator signal strength, then routed to the amplifier.
Connections are simple. The following diagram show the connection points.

The CX-HDA58 is an RF solution designed to handle 8 HDTV satellite receivers and 8 off-air (antenna) ports for antenna and modulated signal distribution.The 8-way off air is a passive system that requires the usage of an antenna pre-amp. An amplifier is NOT included due to the nature of signal levels of off-air signals. A broadband amplifier is not a good solution in this instance.

Modulation and distributing video

Modulation and distributing video
tecLAN, iLAN, and iSAT models are configured to distribute your own televi­sion channels through out your home. In order to distribute your own televi­sion channels a device called a modulator is needed to turn line level signals (the RCA style outputs on your satellite or DVD for example) into “modu­lated” television channels.
UStec carries a series of modulators from 1 to 3 channel (this means up to 3 devices can have their own separate channels) in mono and stereo versions. UStec modulators have been specifically designed to work with our systems and have the necessary dB output to drive a whole home (35dB). UStec can not guarantee the results when using non-UStec components.
Let’s use a typical scenario to understand how a modulator works. Lets assume we want to watch a DVD in every room in the home.
Here is the picture of the front a of the 1 channel modulator part number MOD1CH.
Using RCA style patch cords connect the Video out on the DVD to the Video port on the rear of the modulator (Yellow jacks). Next connect the left and right audio from your DVD to the left and right inputs on the modulator.
This particular modulator is a mono modulator, which means that the left and right audio sig­nals get mixed together. UStec offers stereo versions if you are
interested.
On the front of the modulator select the up and down buttons and turn the modulator to channel 120. Your UStec system has a specialized filter to block any
modulated signals from harming the cable companies return path. The return path is where cable modems and interactive set top boxes signals go back to the cable com­pany. Even if you do not utilize these cable services, without the filter you could effect your entire neighborhood.
UStec Structured Wiring User Manual
61
Page 62
If you have cable television service, UStec strongly recommends modulating to channels 118 and higher. Cable companies have been allocated to 750 MHz for their digital signals. Channel 116 ends at 750 MHz. This eliminates any possible problem with wiping out a series of digital channels.
For those with off-air antennas you can safely modulate on channel 60 and higher.
Power off the modulator.
Once the channel has been set (120 in our example) connect a coax cable to the cable port on your modulator and plug the other end into the INTERNAL port on your tecPort. Satellite users plug the modulator into the port labeled modulator on the CX-2060 diplexer that came with your system.
Power on your modulator and device (DVD in this example)
Now your DVD should be viewable on every channel in the home on channel
120.
NOTE: You can NOT modulate to a channel that is already occupied by another channel. If there had already been programming at channel 120 as the explanation above, suggested would need to pick another channel that is free and at least 2 chan­nels away such as 122.

Here is the above steps again.
Connect the RCA feeds from the device you want to view everywhere in your home to the modulator.
Set the channel to the desired channel (>117 with CATV or >60 on UHF)
Power down the modulator
Connect the coax output on the modulator to the Internal Input on the tecPort, or to the port labeled Modulator if using satellite.
Power up the modulator.
Turn your TV’s to the channel set in step 2
Enjoy.

Set Top Box note:

One other important note here pertains to cable companies and their set-top box. Unfortunately most of the cable companies set-top boxes are designed to only pass their signals and to block all others. This adds one more step to the task of distributing modulators.
If your TV has dual inputs then your problem is already solved. Connect the raw TV feed into Antenna A (or RCA input) and the cable box into antenna B. All your modulated signals are available on Antenna A and your set-top is on Antenna B.
If you only have one set of inputs, then a cable box combiner kit is needed. Contact your UStec dealer for one. This solution routes your modulated sig­nals around the cable box to simply solve the issue.

Satellite Internet Hookup

Satellite Internet Hookup

Two-Way Satellite

Satellite Internet is a still maturing market. Satellite Internet has significant challenges most IPS do not face. This is due to the fact the signals need to travel more than twenty three thousand miles to the satellite in orbit and back to the ISP headend on earth before sending the return signal back to the homeowner. This leads to large latency or delay in time for a task to be com­pleted.
Many networked applications do not do well with long latency, so the satel­lite Internet companies have come up with alternative methods for making reliable connections.
The satellite Internet companies have specialized hardware which encapsu­late the normal TCP Internet packets into a more satellite friendly versions. This makes it more difficult to share these broadband technologies than does cable or DSL modem technologies.
Typically UStec recommends putting the broadband equipment into the tec­Center for distribution throughout the home. Due to the satellite technolo­gies available at the time of this writing, UStec will recommend that the satellite equipment be mounted at the location of the designated computer. (We’ll share that computer for whole house distribution)
Later in 2002 DirecWay will have available an add-on product to its lineup that will allow for the broadband sharing of its connection. At this time size is still a limitation (3 different hardware boxes) so the connection will still need to take place outside the tecCenter.
The following diagram will show how to set the computer hardware up to share the broadband Internet connection

One Way Satellite

DirecPC has been around for some time with it’s one way satellite connec­tion. In this method high speed Internet is delivered to the homeowner via a satellite dish, but the upstream signals (from the homeowner back to the ISP) return on a standard dial up telephone modem. Windows software from Windows 98 second edition through the current Windows XP have a setup wizard that allows for the sharing of this connection. Below is the diagram for the high speed hardware connections.

Surveillance Cameras

Surveillance Cameras
tecLAN, iLAN, and iSAT models are configured to distribute your own televi­sion channels through out your home. If you read the previous section on distributing video you now have an idea on how to create your own televi­sion channel in your home. UStec offers surveillance cameras that are cam­eras with integrated modulators.
UStec currently carries an in-wall camera that is available in both black and white and color versions. In addition there is a outdoor floodlight style cam­era that is available in both black and white and color. This version also offers audio.
All that is required to wire for one of these cameras is one RG6 coaxial cable. These cameras receive their power over the coax cable and send the modu­lated camera feed back to the UStec tecCenter for distribution through out the home.
These cameras are perfect as surveillance for the front and rear doors, garage areas, backyards. etc. Use one to watch the pool, use one with audio as a baby or child’s play room monitor. The cameras are an easy way to add piece of mind.
A camera is typically sold with the CX-CM4 camera power module. More details on this hardware as well as camera hardware is available in the mod­ules section later in this guide.
UStec Structured Wiring User Manual
71
Page 72
Using the example in the previous section, lets add the modulated camera to the mix.
Modulated signals need at least one channel of separation. In the distributing modulators section we shared a DVD throughout the home on channel 120. Lets share the camera then on channel 122. (1 channel spacing)
The camera should be installed by a certified UStec dealer. The camera’s chan­nels are adjusted by pushing a series of dip switches on. For channel 122 we will turn on dip switches 80, 40 and 2. (80+40+2=122). For more detailed technical information please see the technical section on the UStec website.
The diagram below shows a 4 cameras setup on channels 118, 120, 122, and

Infrared Remote Controls

Infrared Remote Controls
When a whole home IR remote control system is not installed or warranted, a UStec remote control system (IR-KIT) is a easy way to control your IR enabled devices from another room.
Using the example of the modulated DVD system in the distributing video section, you want to not only view the DVD player on channel 120, but want to be able to control it from the master bedroom. An IR remote control sys­tem would allow for complete control of the DVD player via the master bed­room.
The system is broken down into two parts. The first part is the receiver system that receives the invisible pulses of light from the remote control. This receiver system converts light energy into electrical energy that we can trans­port over the UStec structured wiring system.
The second part of the system is the emitter system. This converts the electri­cal energy back into the light pulses your equipment (DVD) expects to see. A small emitter is affixed to the IR window on your hardware (DVD in this example).
Below is an image of both parts.

Audio Distribution

Audio Distribution
UStec’s AU-2X4 in conjunction with third party speaker wires, speakers and impedance matching volume controls allows for the distribution of whole house audio.
The AU-2X4 allows for the distribution of one A/V receiver/amplifier to at least seven different room locations. Wires from the A/V receiver/amplifier input into the AU-2X4 and are sent out to various rooms speaker controls. From there they are wired to your speakers.
The AU-2X4 can also be configured for two zones by removing the shorting jumper between the top and bottom rows of connectors. This allows for two separate receiver sources out to at least three rooms each.
This unit works by sending the left and right amplified audio outputs from an amplifier or integrated amplifier/receiver to the first connection point on the AU-2X4. The are wired to L+, L- & R+, R-.
The AU-2X4 is now active and each corresponding room can be connected. The amplified left and right audio outputs travel to the room where they con­nect with an impedance matching volume control. This device matches the impedance of the speakers to that of the amplifier or integrated amplifier/ receiver that is driving the system.
The speakers in the room are then connected to the impedance matching vol­ume control.
The following two illustrations demonstrate these connections.

Third Party equipment examples

Third Party equipment examples
Your UStec system is ready to handle all kinds of technologies. This section shows a couple of interesting technologies that can be easily integrated into your system. This section assumes you have Ethernet capability which is stan­dard in any iLAN or iSAT system, and is optional in tecLAN or tecSAT systems.

IP cameras

Imagine being able to see your who’s at your front door from work, or check on the baby-sitter or see who’s using your pool when you are half way around the world. It can be done with an IP based network camera and a broadband connection. There are several manufacturers of the cameras. Two examples are Panasonic and Axis communications.
These cameras are setup just like any other camera except they output via Ethernet. With an IntelliWAY server or the TP-IPR8 router, you can make these cameras visible on the Internet. Please refer to each products corresponding documentation for detailed instructions.
When you are away from home simply type in the WAN address of your Intel­liWAY or TP-IPR8 and port number you specified in the IntelliWAY or TP­IPR8. You will now see and have control of your cameras from any Internet connected computer anywhere in the world.

MP3 Player

Enjoy a collection of music practically as large as you can make it. With an MP3 player and an A/V receiver or amplified speakers you can listen to the thousands of songs in your library.
An MP3 player is a device like a CD player that plays your music. Where the difference lies is that your songs are converted to the MP3 audio format and streamed over your Ethernet network. These songs can be stored on hard disks on any connected machine or on the IntelliWAY if you have one. You could put more than ten thousand songs on your Intelliway hard drive.
To connect an MP3 player there are three connections. The first is a power cable to plug into any outlet. The second is RCA or optical outputs for you’re
UStec Structured Wiring User Manual

Page 80
A/V receiver or amplified speakers. The last connection is an RJ45 Ethernet connection that plugs into your network.
Most units on the market will automatically search the network for songs and be ready for use with little or no work at all. Additionally they usually come with software that allows you to convert your CD’s to MP3 files and make any necessary adjustments to the system.
As with most computer components, MP3 players are not too expensive, and if history is any indication it will be cost effective to have several on your net­work for different rooms in your house.

The Future

There is probably a hundred other things we could put in here, a hundred new things in a year, and you have a hundred more. With the infrastructure in the walls with your UStec system, these technologies will be easy to integrate.

Panel Modules

The tecGate panel assembly is assembled at the factory in either a stock or a user-defined configuration. When the panel is purchased as part of a system,
on-site configuration is not required; simply terminate the wires and plug them into the correct ports on the tecGate panel.
Some on-site configuration may be required when upgrading tecGate Servers, for example, making the connections to install a new module(s). The table below lists the available modules, part numbers, and applications.

The tecGate panel modules are described on the pages that follow.
Amplified Coax Module CX-AMP16
The CX-AMP16 amplifier is the 16 port version of the highly regarded CX­AMP8.
This amplifier has a single CATV input with 16 outputs. The outputs are sepa­rated into banks of eight. One bank of eight outputs features +7.5 dB gain to compensate for the longer cable runs that are typical in larger networks that utilize the CX-AMP16. The second set of outputs are +4.5dB. As with the CX­AMP8, the goal is unity gain – reproduction of incoming signal strength at the tecPort.
The AMP16 also has 2 inputs on the rear of the device (labeled CX-DM8) for the connection of the internal leg of the network, and 2 spare input (labeled AUX) for future integration.
The module also provides 6 KV surge protection for all outgoing signals.
Amplified Coax Module CX-AMP8
The AMP8 looks similar to the CX-AMP16, but instead of a second bank of eight OUTPUTS there is a bank of eight INTERNALS. This allows connection of up to 8 dual coax runs to be terminated directly to the amplifier.
The 8 outputs are unity gain – when tested, signal strength at the TV port on the tecPort should be similar to the incoming signal strength at the CATV in port on the AMP8.
UStec Structured Wiring User Manual
83
Page 84
The 8 inputs on the face of the AMP8 are for the connection of the internal (white) leg of the coax network. Signals returned to the internal inputs are combined first with each other, then with incoming CATV signal. This com­posite signal is then fed into the amplifier for distribution on the TV (black) leg of the network.
There are 3 additional internal inputs on the rear of the amplifier for connec­tions to DSS multiswitches, camera modules, or future devices. These inputs function identically to the front internal ports.
The module also provides 6 KV surge protection for all outgoing signals.

Internal 8-Way CX Module CX-DM8

The CX-DM8 module is used with the CX-AMP16. This module serves as a connection point for the internal (white) cables.
The CX-DM8 combines up to 8 internal (white) cables into one composite
feed and passes it to the “CX-DM8” input on the rear of the amplifier so they can be combined with other incoming signals and the CATV signal for insertion into the amplifier.

CX-4X4U & CX-4X4U.1 Distribution Modules

84
Intended for the MDU and small production market, the CX-4X4U module is a cost effective yet extremely high quality cable distribution system. It has all the functionality of the CX-AMP8 and CX-AMP16 modules, including surge suppression.
The CX-4X4U.1 is the same module as the CX-4X4U mounted to a larger face­plate.
As indicated by its part number, the CX-4X4U provides termination points for up to 4 dual coaxial runs. Unlike the AMP8 and AMP16 however, the 4X4U is a passive (non amplified) module.
These modules also have 6kV surge protection.
UStec Structured Wiring Users Manual

UStec Modules

Satellite Multiswitch CX-DSS4

The CX-DSS4 is a dual LNB multiswitch for use with standard (non-HDTV) DSS dishes and receivers. It features dual LNB inputs, and four outputs for connection of up to four non-HDTV, DirecTV compatible tuners. The CX­DSS4 can be mounted in the UX-10x enclosure in two different places depending upon the panel module used
The CX-DSS4 also has a terrestrial port, labeled “to amplifier internal input.” This port is connected to any of the internal inputs on a UStec coax distribu­tion module (CX-AMP8, CX-AMP16, CX-4X4U) when the internal (white) leg of the dual coax network is used in bi-directional mode.
Installers familiar with satellite multiswitches typically use the terrestrial port to combine an off-air antenna or cable with satellite signals over one coax to the room location.
UStec uses a different approach. Instead of using the terrestrial port for cable, we use it as an internal return path. This is done for one very important rea­son−Quality. Satellite equipment is not designed to handle broadband cable connections. In fact, most satellite equipment is designed to handle 16 or less terrestrial channels, and few if any cable systems in North America fit this description. Instead, UStec uses the terrestrial side for feeding modulated sig­nals back to the tecGate panel

Satellite MultiSwitch Module CX-DSS58

The CX-DSS58 is an eight output HDTV compatible multiswitch. When used with an HDTV compatible dish, any combination of up to eight HDTV and non-HDTV receivers may be used.
The CX-DSS58 is designed to use the internal cables bi-directionally; by dis­tributing satellite signals out to eight rooms while maintaining the ability to send modulated signals back on the same coax. Modulated signals that return to the multiswitch are amplified to ensure good modulator signal strength, then routed to the amplifier.
The CX-DSS58 is included in iSAT series servers for installation in homes that subscribe to both CATV and DSS. It takes three module bays in the panel, and
UStec Structured Wiring User Manual
85
Page 86
is installed from the rear of the frame. When used with the CX-AMP16, the CX-DSS58 replaces one CX-DM8 module.

Satellite MultiSwitch Module CX-HDA58

This is an eight output HDTV compatible multiswitch. When used with an HD compatible dish, any combination of up to eight HDTV and non-HDTV receivers may be used.
In addition to its function as a multiswitch, it also has a 1X8 passive splitter intended for the distribution of terrestrial antenna signals. It is not recom-
mended that the CX-HDA58 be used for the distribution of broadband CATV sig­nals.
The CX-DSS58 is designed to use the internal cables bi-directionally; by dis­tributing satellite signals out to eight rooms while maintaining the ability to send modulated signals back on the same coax. Modulated signals that return to the multiswitch are amplified to ensure good modulator signal strength, then routed to the 1X8 passive splitter.
The CX-DSS58 is included in iSAT series servers for installation in homes that subscribe to DSS, but receive local programming via terrestrial antenna. The CX-HDA58 does not fit into the 20K2562 panel frame (FX-200).
86
An antenna pre-amplifier is strongly recommended for any antenna connected to the antenna input port.

Camera Module CX-CM4

The camera module is designed expressly for use with UStec indoor and out­door surveillance cameras. It is capable of powering up to 4 cameras. Power is supplied to the cameras from the UX-DC6.2 low voltage power supply, through the RG6 coaxial cable, to connectors on the rear of the camera mod­ule. The coaxial cable inputs from the cameras connect to the face of the cam­era module. The output from the camera module connects to the internal port on the internal CX amplifier.
All that is needed to prewire this system is a single RG6 feed per camera. The cameras themselves consist of a high quality CCD (charge coupled device) sensing unit and a built-in modulator. The CX-CM4 module supplies 12 volts
UStec Structured Wiring Users Manual
Page 87
UStec Modules
regulated DC, which powers the modulator and camera. The camera, in turn, sends back the modulated camera output on a channel you select. The CX­CM4 will combine that signal with the signals from up to three other cameras and distribute the signals to one internal on a UStec coaxial distribution module (CX-AMP16, CX-AMP8, CX-4X4U).

Audio Speaker Hub Module AU-2X4

The AU-2X4 is a passive audio speaker distribution hub that consists of eight stereo wire connectors wired in parallel. The device can be set up in either of two ways:
Bring a stereo source from an amplifier into the Source 1, and output to seven different locations by way of impedance matching speaker knobs in the rooms.
Remove the bridging adapter between the two rows of connectors to have two separate sources that feed three rooms each.Because this device is a passive patch panel, it also can be used for other purposes, e.g., as a central hub for IR controls. The unit can connect wires from 10 to 28 gauge.

Power Supply Module UX-DC6.2

The UX DC6.2 is the latest revision of the DC power supply.
This power supply has three 2.5 millimeter by 5.5 millimeter plugs on the front, plus two additional two-pin power connections on the rear.
These features allow panel modules to take advantage of “bus” type power cords which run up the back side of the panel frame and enhance the appear­ance of the panel. Each power bus cable has connectors for applying power to individual modules in series.
The UX-DC6.2 also features a dealer replaceable 1/2 amp 250 volt slow-blow fuse (Littlefuse # 229.500S). It also provides a ground post on the rear of the unit for the TP-IN4RS telephone input module, as well as previous generation amplifiers.
The UX-DC6.2 is unregulated, as different modules require different voltages. Therefore, any device connected to it must have voltage regulation.
UStec Structured Wiring User Manual
87
Page 88
The total current capacity of the UX-DC6.2 is 1700mA. The current output of individual ports is not restricted, as long as total current draw does not exceed
1.7 Amps.

TP Input Module TP-IN4RS

The TP-IN4RS is a telephone line interface and surge suppression module. Connections are present for incoming CO lines, dial tone out to a KSU phone system, two RJ31X-enabled devices, and a Category 5 rated coupler.
CO Lines entering the panel are connected to the TELCO IN jack. All four pairs are distributed to the TP distribution module(s) via the ribbon cable connectors on the rear.
Surge protected dial tone can be sent to a KSU phone system via the KSU OUT jack.
Two RJ31X devices may be connected; one each on lines 1&2. Due to sensitiv­ity of some RJ31X – capable devices and legal liability, surge suppression is not applied to the RJ31X jacks.
Two devices requiring a Category 5 rated coupling may be connect to the CAT 5 DATA jacks.
88

TP Module TP-DM10R

The TP-DM10R is a 10 port RJ45 distribution module that replaced the TP­DM6R module (shown on next page). In addition to having four more RJ-45 ports, the unit is wired in parallel, allowing it to operate on its own, without the need for ribbon cables and a TP-IN4 module.
The primary benefits of this design are that it can be used as a standalone device, or it can be used in the event of a catastrophic failure of a TP-IN4 module, or it can be connected in the same manner as a DM6R module.
This device cannot be used with KSU systems because it is wired in parallel. This does not apply to KSU-less systems or to KSU systems that do not need independent pairs of wires.
UStec Structured Wiring Users Manual
Page 89
UStec Modules

TP Module TP-DM6R

The TP-DM6R module has been discontinued but is shown here for reference. The TP-DM6R module provides telephone distribution to six rooms. When connected to the TP-IN4 module, these units distribute up to four telephone lines to six different locations. It is possible to distribute six KSU extensions to six locations in the home with the TP-KSU6R14 adapter cable, however the TP-KSU8 module and adapter cables replace the TP-DM6R/-KSU6R14 in new installations.

Computer 10/100BaseT Switch Module TP-10/100BT

The TP-10/100BT Ethernet Switch replaces the TP-10BT Ethernet Hub.
The TP-10/100BT is an auto sensing switch that allows direct port to port communication on the network. The advantage of direct communication between ports is faster overall network speed.
For example, connecting a cable modem to a 10/100 hub would limit the entire hub to run at only 10Mbps. A 10/100 switch on the other hand would run at 10Mbps on the connected port, while all the others can run at either 10 or 100 Mbps.
The TP-10/100BT is a 6 port switch. Besides the four ports on the front, it has two cascade ports on the rear circuit board to allow the unit to cascade to another 10/100 Switch as well as providing a port for broadband access or other device.

Computer 10/100 Ethernet Switched Router Module TP-IPR8

The TP-IPR8 is an 8 port switched router that is designed to share a high speed broadband connection for all the computers in the home. The unit also provides firewall security through network address translation.
The TP-IPR8 can connect 8 computers directly, but has the capacity to con­nect up to 253 computers. All 8 LAN ports have the “Auto-MDX” feature which automatically corrects for straight-through/cross-over miswires. Simply plug in your networked device and go. The WAN port has a manual switch to accomplish the same feature.
UStec Structured Wiring User Manual
89
Page 90
Network address translation allows your computers to be “hidden” from the Internet, so prying eyes can not see them, only the router. The TP-IPR8 is fully standards based and can be used with such advanced technologies as VPN and pass through IPSEC
The configurations to the device are embedded in a web interface. The default address for connection is http://192.168.1.1. The user name is admin and the password is admin. Please change the password for security reasons.
The TP-IPR8 comes pre-programmed for many common applications so setup of some more advanced features is a breeze. The software on the router is fully upgradeable, so as new features and technologies become available the unit can be updated.
Unlike the TP-10/100BT, all of the ports on the TP-IPR8 are on the front. In order to expand pass the initial 8 LAN ports, one LAN port must be used for cascading to another switch.

Telephone Integration Module TP-KSU8

The TP-KSU8 module is designed to take advantage of today’s key system units. When used with either the TP-KSU624 or TP-KSU1232 interface cable, it offers a simple solution to integrating digital phone systems into the struc­tured wiring environment.
90
The TP-KSU8 has 8 RJ45 jacks on its front panel. Each jack connects to the phone port of a tecPort where a system phone is to be located.
There are 3 connectors on the rear of the TP-KSU8. The 50 pin header receives the TP-KSU624/TP-KSU1232 adapter cable.
The 24 pin header receives the FX-RIB24 ribbon cable carrying CO lines 3&4 from a TP-IN4RS telephone input module for jacks 1-6. The 10 pin header allows access to pairs 3&4 in jacks 7-8.
The TP-KSU624 adapter cable carries the digital dial tone from the KSU switch back to the TP-KSU8 module.
It has 8 RJ14 plugs at one end for connection to the extension outputs on the KSU, and a 50 pin connector for the KSU8.
UStec Structured Wiring Users Manual
Page 91
UStec Modules
The TP-KSU624 is used for integration of KSU’s with RJ14 extension outputs, such as the Panasonic KXT624 and the DSC Communique.
The TP-KSU1232 works the same as the TP–KSU624, but has a standard pinout Amphenol connector instead of RJ14 plugs.
It is used for integration of KSU’s with Amphenol extension outputs, such as the Panasonic KXT1232 and KXT 816 (outputs 9-16). Detailed pin-out assign­ments are available at the UStec website. http://www.ustecnet.com

Surveillance Cameras (CMA-OBW, CMA-OC, CMA-IBW, CMA-IC)

UStec carries both indoor and outdoor surveillance cameras.
The available models include:
Outdoor Cameras: CMA-OBW and CMA-OC with audio (B/W and Color)
Indoor Cameras: CMA-IBW and CMA-IC (currently no audio due to federal law)
Cameras have built-in modulators and a high output signal level (35 dB). Power must be supplied by the CX-CM4 module.
The indoor camera fits inside a standard “J” Box.
The outdoor cameras have a weather resistant enclosure.
Camera Setup:
Both the J-box style and outdoor versions of the camera-modulators are con­nected to the system by a single RG6 coax cable. These cameras are powered over the coax by the CX-CM4 camera module. Each camera has a built in modulator which is set using a bank of dip switches located on the camera circuit board housing.

UStec Basic Troubleshooting.
This documentation is designed to help you with issues that might arise over the course of use with a UStec system. These suggestions are not a replace­ment to the expertise that your dealer has. Many times third party products are integrated into a UStec system and may make the suggestions here inade­quate.
In all cases make certain there is power to the UStec system.
Please contact your dealer if your issue can not be resolved here.

Telecom Issues

No telephone service
If anything new was just added, disconnect it and check for dial tone
Check another telephone to make certain the telephone is not dead
Disconnect service feed from unit (port will say Telco In) wait a two minutes and reconnect. If service returns and then goes away call dealer. Could be bad telephone or ongoing surge condition.
Connect a telephone directly to the incoming line from the NID, If you have dial tone call your UStec dealer. If you do not have dial tone call the tele­phone company.

No Cable Television or Off-Air Signals

On un-amplified systems such as CX-4X4U, CX-4X4U.1, and tecReady series call the cable company.
On all systems with an amplifier (assumes it worked fine before issue) check to make certain you have power to the unit.
Direct connect a TV to the incoming service. If it is acceptable, call your dealer, otherwise call the service provider.
UStec Structured Wiring User Manual

Ethernet Connection Issues

Can not communicate with other computers. (On the TP-IPR8 see its own manual)
Make certain all computers have network cards, and that they are plugged into the Data port on the tecPort which in turn is connected to the Ether­net switch or router in your UStec panel.
Make certain you have link lights on all connected equipment.
Check computers to make certain they are on the same network. Do this by typing at a command prompt in Windows ipconfig /all
All computers should have the same ip address range and subnetmask such as 192.168.1.x where x is a number from 1 to 254 and the subnet is the same such as 255.255.255.0. If they are different correct this.
Reset the Ethernet switches by turning off the power for one minute and re-powering.
Call UStec dealer.
