CHAPTER 2: INTRODUCTION
2. Introduction
2.1 Overview
The CAT5 Multi VGA System for Video and Audio extends video and audio signals
over ordinary Category 5 cable. All models support RGBHV, RGB, and VGA video,
and they use a transmitter-to-receiver setup.
This manual covers the following CAT5 Multi VGA System Transmitters and
Receivers:
Transmitters:
AC1000A-R3 Single port transmitter
AC1003A 4 port Quad hub transmitter
Receivers
AC1001A-R2 500 ft range
AC1002A-R3 600 ft range, daisy chainable
AC1211A 600 ft range, daisy chainable (incl skew comp)
AC1013A-R2 1200 ft range, daisychainable (incl skew comp)
AC1014A-R2 2000 ft range, daisy chainable (incl skew comp)
The video/audio models enable you to broadcast line-level mono audio, along with
video from your computer, to as many as 100 computer monitors to various cable
distances depending upon receiver in use.
Among the transmitters available for both video/audio models are single-port
models and four-port (quad hub) versions. The quad hub transmitter is used to
distribute the same signal to multiple display devices.
CAT5 Multi VGA System receivers are available with single or dual daisychainable
connections. The dual daisychainable receiver is used when the same signal is
distributed to multiple display devices across a single CAT5 cable in a daisychain
or loop-through fashion. Setup and cabling are the same as the single-port
receiver.
You can daisy chain within the rated distance of the receiver. For example, an
AC1002A-R3 can be daisy chained within 600 ft of the transmitter. It is possible to
daisy chain out of a shorter range receiver into a longer range receiver. For
example, when daisy chaining over 600 ft, an AC1002A-R3 can be daisy chained
to an AC1013A-R2 over 600 ft. up to 1200 ft.
A maximum of 12 units may be daisy chained.
