Cable install guide
Please refer to the product packaging for your particular Chord Company product for specific instructions.
Cable direction is often indicated by arrow/s printed on the connector, cable or heatshrink and should point away from the signal source.
To obtain the best results from your cable please follow these instructions:
- Route interconnect and speaker cables away from power cables where possible.
- Switch off equipment before fitting or removing cables.
- Avoid touching the contact areas of the plug/connector.
- Don’t bend the cable excessively or subject it to undue force or pressure.
- When fitting or removing the cable we recommend holding the plug/connector rather than the cable.
- If the plug/connector has a release catch or locking collar (XLR, DIN, BNC & streaming cables etc), ensure this is fully disconnected before removal.
- Test for compatibility with the equipment you wish to connect before installing cable in walls, floors etc.
