DESCRIPTION
The Shure PA821 Antenna Combiners actively combine antenna out-
puts from up to eight PSM wireless transmitters to a single antenna, im-
proving RF performance and reducing rack clutter.
INSTALLATION
Set the power switch on the front panel to Off before installing. Connect
the unit to an AC power source using the supplied power cable. Switch the
power On to use the device. The power light will illuminate. Power the unit
Off when not in use or before disconnecting the unit from the AC power
source.
8-TO-1 COMBINING:
1. Using the supplied BNC-BNC cables, connect the ANTENNA
OUTPUT of each transmitter to the ANTENNA INPUTS of the PA821
(Figure 2).
2. Attach an antenna to the MAIN OUT of PA821. For wideband appli-
cations, use PA805WB directional antenna (Figure 1).
3. Connect the PA821 to a power outlet using one of the supplied
power cables. The PA821 contains a universal power supply to
operate anywhere in the world.
NOTE: When the PA821 is powered on, the input signal
indicators (1-8) on the front panel will illuminate if an active
transmitter is connected to the corresponding input (1-8) on the
back panel (Figure 1).
