After the user software is installed on your PC, the following sequence can be used to turn on the
BUC.
1) Connect one end of a RF cable with a WR28 waveguide adapter to WR28 RF port on the
BUC and the other end of the RF cable to the antenna or a dummy load.
2) Connect one end of an IF cable to N-type IF connector on the BUC and the other end of the
IF cable to the output of the IF source or modem.
3) Connect one end of a MS 12-wires cable to MS 12-pins connector on the BUC. And connect
two wires out of the other end of the MS 12-wires cable, which are dedicated to DC power,
to a power supply with +48V DC or a level specified in the specification sheet in Section 3.1,
and four wires for Ethernet connection or three wires for RS232 connection out of the other
end of the MS 12-wires cable to the modem or your PC, and two wires for external Mute
function to a separate power supply with +5V on. (Refer to Table 1 and Fig. 4 for connection
