Quick Start Guide

AutoPatch RGBHV (BNC) DAD Modules

Overview

RGBHV (BNC) DAD (Distribution Amplifier Driver) Modules have either one input and 
four outputs for a 1:4 distribution or one input and six outputs for a 1:6 distribution of 
RGBHV analog signals. The single RGBHV input is distributed to four or six outputs 
over standard cable runs of up to 250 ft. (76.2 m) with no additional equipment 
required. Each output can be independently adjusted for gain and peaking to ensure 
the proper amount of compensation is provided for each cable run. This guide contains 
complete information for this product. 

Product Specifications

* Gain and peaking are independent switches that allow the user to turn on or off the 
gain and peaking.

Installation

Mounting Options
Desktop

 – Attach the rubber feet (included) to the bottom of the module. 

Rack Mounting
To rack mount a module:

1.

Remove one screw from each side of the module as shown in FIG. 3. Do not 
reuse screw for rack ear.

2.

Attach rack ears as shown in FIG. 3 (screws provided).

3.

Place the module in a standard EIA 19 in. (48.26 cm) rack and secure it to the 
rack with screws.

Typical Setup

Attaching Cables

To attach connectors:

1.

Fasten the BNC connectors from the source and destination devices onto the 
BNC connectors on the module (FIG. 5).

2.

Attach the power cord into the power receptacle on the module and into an 
external AC power source.

3.

Press the “

I

” side of the power switch.

4.

Apply power to the source and destination devices.

Note

The power indicator LED is on the module’s front.
