The 5115 series is comprised of a wall plate and a channel injector.
The channel injector is weather resistant and designed to mount
indoors or outdoors close to the incoming CATV or antenna feed.
The system uses the existing coax cable distribution in the house
and only requires a single run of Cat 5.
The 5115 was designed to work with Cat 5 wiring. Although the sys-
tem will function with quad wire, Cat 5 delivers the highest quality
picture. The Cat 5 allows the use of an automatic line length sensor
and picture compensator. Quad wire does not take advantage of
this enhancement.
Model Differences:
The model 5115HHR is a high headroom design for CATV and off
air antenna feeds only.
The model 5115BID is a bi-directional design for use with CATV
cable boxes that are interactive or require bi-directional
communications with the cable company.
The model 5115PAL is designed to modulate PAL frequencies and
use CATV or off air antenna feeds.
Installation:
First, locate the incoming CATV or antenna feed and install the
channel injector at that location.
Second, install the wall plate at the desired location and run Cat 5
wire from the wall plate to the channel location. Then connect a
video source.
Third, apply power and select an unused channel for the 5115
picture to appear on all the televisions.

Step One
Locate the incoming CATV or antenna feed and existing splitter.
(Usually found on the side of the house, in the attic or near the electrical and phone service box)
Remove the lock screw located on the bottom of the channel
injector and slide the cover off. Use the mounting holes as shown to
affix the channel injector to the wall next to the splitter.
Disconnect the incoming CATV or antenna feed from the existing
splitter and attach it to the channel injector as shown.
Now attach the supplied coax jumper back to the existing splitter
