Avoid passing power to cable runs that don't need it. In some cases the attached tuner will load down the power supply or even short circuit it.

Take a careful look at this diagram: http://www.antennasdirect.com/cmss_f...itter_Opt1.pdf

If you have power available at the splitter location or any other point between the splitter and the antenna, this option can be implemented with a splitter that has no power pass feature, or power pass on one or more ports.
