Cable Requirements
The Voyager Micro Transmitter unit will connect to your PCs system unit. Your keyboard, monitor and
mouse will connect to the cable sockets on the end of the Voyager Micro Receiver unit.
The UTP / STP interconnect cable to connect the Voyager Micro’s Transmitter and Receiver unit is not
supplied with the Voyager Micro. If you do not have suitable CAT 5, 6 or 7 UTP or STP cable
available, please consult your dealer.
The Transmitter and Receiver units are connected by industry standard structured cabling (Category
5, 6 or 7 UTP/STP, 4-pair) terminated with RJ45 connectors.
The cable used should be solid trunk cable. Stranded patch cable will give poor results over longer
distances. The connector wiring must meet the EIA/TIA 568 standard.
CAT5 Wiring Scheme
The Transmitter Receiver interconnection cable is terminated in RJ45 connectors and should be wired
according to the EIA/TIA 568 (Scheme B preferred) industry standard. The Voyager may function with
other wiring schemes, but the video quality may be impaired.
Note: The Voyager Micro Receiver requires power. Use only the power supply unit
supplied with the Voyager Micro units.
Note: Failure to wire the twisted pairs correctly will impair the video quality dramatically
and / or prevent correct operation.
