HOST BOX (brains)
PRESS BOX STATION: 1 host box, 1 RCK, 3 bridge antennas, 2 mesh access points, 2 switchboxes
You will need 2 power outlets: one to power the host box and one to power the RCK. The 3 round antennas will mount to one of your stands and point at the field as indicated by their labels. The host box and RCK will stay with the filmer.
Use a long ethernet cable to run from the LAN2 port on your home/visitor round bridge antenna to the respective home/visitor coach room and connect to switchbox PORT1 containing the coachbox access point.
- 1 AC red/black stickered antenna to bridge to Home Sideline
- 1 AC red/white/black stickered antenna to bridge to Visitor Sideline
- 1 AC red/white stickered antenna to bridge to EndZone
- 2 Mesh CoachBox-WiFi antennas & 2 switchboxes to connect to devices in the press box
- SCH-CoachBox-XXXXX with switchbox for the home coach booth
- SCV-CoachBox-XXXXX with switchbox for the visitor coach booth
- 1 ethernet cable for your RCK
-
1 green gigabit router
-
1 Nuc host server
Home/Visitor switchboxes are connected to the PressBox station
There are two switchboxes pictured below, one for home coachbox and one for visitor coachbox. These will be powered in your respective home and visitor coach rooms.
Use a long ethernet cable (pictured on the cable winder in the top right corner of the photos) to run from the LAN2 port on your Home/Visitor round bridge antenna to PORT 1 on your Home/Visitor CoachBox switch, as pictured below.
* The LAN2 port on your Home/Visitor bridge antenna (the round antenna in the photo) is the port on the right when looking at the back of the antenna.
Attach the foldable rods to the top of the mesh WiFi antenna and place the switchbox and "skinny rabbit ear" antenna in the room with the coaches.
* The "skinny rabbit ear" mesh antenna should be in the room with the coaches. This provides the SC-CoachBox-WiFi access for the home/visitor coachbox iPads and will ensure fast download speeds when placed in the coach rooms.
STATION BOX (field equipment)
SIDELINE STATIONS: 1 bridge antenna, 1 U7 access point, 1 switchbox ultra (repeat for home and visitor)
You will need 1 power outlet for each sideline power supply: home and visitor switchbox ultra. Mount the 2 antennas to one of the stands and place it at the 35 yard line. The stand should be extended high so the antennas are not obstructed by the players.
The round bridge antenna will point at the matching press box antenna as indicated by the label. Be sure the antenna has a clear and straight line of sight with no obstructions. Be sure to adjust the angle on the round antenna to point up at the matching antenna.
The rectangular U7 antenna is directional and should be pointed down the sideline/player's box towards the ios devices. This provides the SCH- and SCV-Sideline-WiFi access for the sideline iPads and will ensure fast download speeds.
Any iPad can connect to the SkyCoach network via the provided access point ("WiFi") or connect directly to the network via an ethernet adapter and switch port. Your switchbox ultra provides 3 ethernet access points.
WARNING: Connecting the POE 48v to anything other than the U7 WiFi antenna will permanently damage the device!!!
Please proceed with extreme caution in the event you ever change the ethernet. We have labeled our ethernets to aid in care of the equipment.
The POE 24v will connect to the main port on the round antenna, also labeled.
- 1 AC red/black stickered antenna for home sideline to bridge to the pressbox
- 1 AC red/white/black stickered antenna for visitor sideline to bridge to the pressbox

END ZONE STATION: 1 bridge antenna, 1 RCK, 1 powertube
You will need 2 power outlets: one for the powertube and one to power the RCK. The round antenna will point at the matching host box antenna as indicated by the label.
You can mount the red/white round bridge antenna to the leg of your end zone tripod or camera stand. Be creative or even switch the ethernet cable for a longer one to get the best position for your antenna.
* Be sure the antenna has a clear and straight line of sight with absolutely no obstructions and especially avoiding the field goal post.
