Cascading Receivers (Emerge EMS1000MP-R Receivers Only)

Expansion at the receiver end is made possible using the 

LINK OUT

 ports 

present on Emerge EMS1000MP-R receivers. Receiver cascade links are 

made using twisted pair cables, specified to Category 5 or higher. 

Video Image Adjustments

As link cable lengths increase and more receivers are cascaded, color separation effects may 

become noticeable within displayed video images, particularly at higher resolutions. These effects 

are called ‘skew’ and result from differing delays on the red, green and blue color signals as they 

travel to the receivers. Each Emerge EMS1000MP-R receiver provides two extra adjustment dials 

to counter skew effects. For further information, please refer to the section 

Skew Compensation 

Adjustments

 within Chapter 3.

receiver cascades) between 

the primary transmitter and 

the furthest receiver in any 

branch.
