CHAPTER 2 Installation Installation in an RTS Digital Matrix IFB-828 Location The XLR connector output from the IFB-828 provides unbalanced audio and DC operating power to IFB belt packs. Therefore, very long cable runs (over several hundred feet) from the IFB-828 to the belt packs may result in diminished performance due to DC resistance in the cabling and noise induced by surrounding equipment. Select a location for the IFB-828 that is as close as possible to the belt packs or use appropria
