Confi guring the GefenTV 1:8 Multi Format Distribution Over Ethernet
for Video / Audio over LAN
In addition to extending video and audio over Ethernet, the GefenTV 1:8 Multi
Format Distribution Over Ethernet can be used to distribute Video and Audio over
a Local Area Network (LAN).
1. Connect the source(s) to the Sender unit using VGA, Component, Compos-
ite or S-Video cables. If audio is desired on the output, connect a 3.5mm
mini stereo audio cable to the rear of the Sender unit (page 4). Connect the
other end of the audio cable to the audio source.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Local Area Network to one of the Ether-
net jacks on the front of the Sender.
3. Connect the Receiver to a display using VGA and/or Component cables.
4. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Local Area Network to one of the Ether-
net jacks on the front of the Receiver.
5. Using one of the included 12V DC power supplies, connect it to the power
receptacle at the rear of the Sender unit. Connect the power adapter to an
available wall outlet.
6. Connect the other 12V DC power supply to the Recevier unit then plug the
adapter into an available wall outlet.
7. Use the SELECT button on the Sender unit (page 4) to select the desired
input video source. Pressing the SELECT button on the Sender will cycle
through each input on the Sender. The LED next to the selected output will
be displayed on the Input Selection Indicator (page 4).
8. Use the SELECT button on the Receiver unit (page 6) to select between
VGA or Component output. The LED next to the selected output will be
displayed on the Output Selection Indicator (page 6).
9. Once the correct video input and output selections are made, video should
appear on the connected display. If audio is used on the Sender and Re-
ceiver, audio should be heard clearly through the display speakers.
