outlet.
System Expansion
The DH46X is capable of supporting up to four sources to up to six zones. The system may be
expanded in two ways:
Local Sources
Adding Zones (Additional DH46X chassis)
Local Sources
Each zone of a DH44/DH46X-based system can have its own “Local” source connected directly
to the zone’s DHTP1 Amplifi ed Touchpad using a DHSIP Source Input Wall Plate. A source
connected to a DHTP1 is accessible from the zone in which it is connected. It is NOT AVAILABLE
to the other zones of the system. Both audio and IR control capabilities are available to Local
Sources through the DHTP1. A zone may have a maximum of one Local Source.
DHSIP Source Input Wall Plate
A DHSIP Source Input Wall Plate is required to add a Local Source to a zone. The wall plate has
audio and IR connections similar to the SOURCE INPUT of the DH44. A run of Cat-5 terminated
to T-568A standard (see Figure 3-3, page 12) is required between the DHTP1 Amplifi ed Touch-
pad and the location designated for the DHSIP. Connections between a source component and
the DHSIP are detailed in Figure 3-7, Figure 3-8 and Figure 3-9,while connections between the
DHSIP and the DHTP1 Amplifi ed Touchpad are detailed in Figure 3-10.
