Jim,

Q1. Can i use a double end HS2 cable to join the dsm300 to the e120 ?
A1. Negative. The MFD and DSM will need to each be interfaced to a SeaTalkhs (M) to RJ45 (M) Cable. The two cables were designed to be joined via a SeaTalkhs Crossover Coupler or SeaTalkhs Network Switch.

Q2. also should the suppressors go near both the dsm and the e120 .
A2. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing this subject. The power cable of the DSM would typically have one or two suppression ferrites attach to it. These would be positioned as close as is permissible to the cable's plug.

Q3. how about the cross over if i cant use the double end cable ?
A3. See the response to Q1.

Q4. should that have suppressors also ?
A4. Negative. See the response to Q2.
