3.2.5 Transmitter link connections
Wizard DP Extender transmitter and receiver units are linked by either one or two CATx cables at a distance of up to 150 meters
(492 feet). The type and quality of the CATx cables used are crucial to the mode of operation (please see the section
Tips for
achieving good quality links
). If Hi-Speed USB is not needed at the receiver then a CATx link between the B ports of the units
is not necessary.
IMPORTANT: The signals sent through the link cables are NOT compatible with standard networking equipment and
could cause damage if connected. Do not connect the transmitter or receiver modules to any other networking devic-
es.
3.2.5.1 To link the units
1 Connect the CATx link cable from port A of the receiver unit to port A on the front panel of the transmitter unit.
From link port
A on the
receiver unit
From link port B on the receiv-
er unit (required only for
transfer of Hi-Speed USB)
2 If Hi-Speed USB is required, connect the CATx link cable from port B of the receiver unit to port B on the front panel of the
transmitter unit.
