Introduction
Overview
The VGA/DVI/HDMI over Cat 5 Extender Wall Plate extends VGA/DVI/
HDMI and audio signals up to 150 m (for VE156) / 60 m (for VE606 / VE806)
using Cat 5e cables. It supports popular wide screen formats and ensures
excellent video quality over long distance transmissions. The VE156 / VE606
/ VE806, in combination with other ATEN devices such as VGA/DVI/HDMI
extenders and MDS solutions, can further extend the distance or multiply A/V
sources/displays.
The VE156 / VE606 / VE806 can be powered at either the Transmitter or
Receiver side, and uses a second Cat 5e cable to transmit the power signal to
the other unit. The compact wall plate design does away with bulky cables and
allows a neat and convenient installation. It is an ideal solution for function
rooms, museums and any environment that requires equipment or cabling to be
kept hidden from public view.
