DHSIP Source Input Wall Plate 1. Introduction The DHSIP Source Input Wall Plate allows a Local Source (a source located within a room and not avail- able to the DH44 Digital Audio Router system as a whole) to easily connect to a DHTP1 Amplifi ed Touch Pad. It also serves as a source input wall plate for the DH46X Digital Audio Router in stand-alone applica- tions. The DHSIP provides connections for Analog Audio, Digital Optical Audio, Digital Coaxial Audio and IR Control. Features • Local

DHSIP Source Input Wall Plate 2. Wiring/Installation Wiring for the DHSIP consists of a single run of Cat-5 wire between the DHTP1 Amplifi ed Touch Pad or DH46X Digital Audio Router and the mounting loca- tion for the DHSIP. Note: Do not run Cat-5 wires closer than 12" from high voltage wires. T-568A Wiring Standard All Cat-5 connections in a DH44-based system use the industry standard T-568A wiring scheme as il- lustrated in Figure 2.1. RJ-45 connectors are used to terminate Cat-5 wires at

DHSIP Source Input Wall Plate Installation The DHSIP is designed to mount in a standard single- gang rough-in box (J Box). Mount the unit in close proximity to the location of the source that will be connected to it. Note: Do not mount the DHSIP in the same rough-in box as high voltage devices such as electrical outlets or switches. After running Cat-5 and terminating the ends, route the wire into the back of the rough-in box, connect it to the RJ-45 connector on the rear of the DHSIP,

DHSIP Source Input Wall Plate Adjusting Analog Audio Source Output Level Once all connections are made, the Analog Audio Source should be adjusted for clipping (distortion) before the DHSIP is mounted in place. To adjust the Analog Audio Source Output Level: 1. Ensure that the Analog Audio Source is connected properly. 2. Power up the source and turn on an audible signal (Press PLAY, tune to a station, etc.). 3. Select the Source from the zone’s DHTP1 Touch- pad. If it is a
